Good day family. A LOT going on out there nowadays. As three Bruthas trying to provide some sort of entertainment through the sport we love, we'd be remiss if we didn't acknowledge the protests and movement that has impacted the world. We at Bruthas on Tennis denounce all acts of police brutality, injustice, and racism that has transpired not only in our home country (USA), but all over the globe. We stand in solidarity with those in the fight to eradicate racism as well as unjust laws/policing, and hope to build a future built on equality, where diversity is championed, and celebrated. A short list of resources and info shared from impacted tennis players are listed below the show notes.

And now, on to the show...

For some much needed relief, the Bruthas decided to give a lil' shine to two players that may have flown under the radar for the typical tennis fan, but who were most definitely over-achievers in the sport, Ms. Lori McNeil, and Mr. MaliVai Washington. Listen in as the Bruthas educate and legitimately elevate these two players into the tennis stratosphere.
