She 100% got phenomenal genes for it. Think of how much hand-eye coordination, core strength, reaction speed, stamina and raw athleticism Mike has.

That's also Serena's former tennis coach from 2012-2022.

She's been working with this trainer for a while too, maybe it's her Cus D'Amato without all the savageness of boxing.

This is a sport black people should be dominating.
The sht is so close to other sports that we dominate, it's crazy.

Its really boxing without taking punches mixed with sprinting, and the creativity of playing basketball



Tennis is the only sport made to discriminate other classes purposefully.

Plus the resources it takes to build a champion.
Are difficult to come by.
In areas where it would seem possible.

Wager or factor in the social dynamic and lack of resources.
Plus the sport was never built for grassroots players to generally make it. Which the later sports models are all built from. That isolates grassroots players currently from ever making it. In a world that has adapted to having all sports programs based or welded in the same type of advanced resource purposeful system. That eliminates the grassroots player all together.
Tennis leads the way in the erosion of the grassroots player. Plus, erosion of programs not deemed worthy as well.

For a general black person to make it in tennis is a really hard sell..someone like mike tyson.
As rare as tyson is.
Tyson's child in this exact time.
Is kind of the only real shot to make it as a black pro moving forward in america.

That is how bleak it is.
in general for a black child.
to become a pro tennis olayer.

As a race..black people have been priced out of tennis purposefully.

That any black kid making it from america. As a pro tennis player. Male or female.
Would more than likely.
be an outlier of the most extreme highest quality resourceful circumstances.

Namely,...
The child of someone like..
Mike tyson

I was having this conversation with my mentor. Tennis, F1… and other sports which is considered “elitist”, make it difficult for those from lower socio-economic backgrounds to prosper.

The Williams sisters and Lewis Hamilton came from working class backgrounds and they are sadly anomalies in their sports (maybe not so much in tennis now but definitely back then.)

The money it costs to join these clubs, getting a trainer, travel, equipment etc. it all adds up. Unless both parents are making 6 figure salaries, it’s extremely difficult to support a child making it in those sports.

It’s no surprise that Tiger Woods (if you want to consider him black) was raised in Orange County. And despite that, he still encountered racial barriers.

There should be far more black racing drivers in NASCAR, F1 and so on but we’re systemically kept out financially and through racial segregation.

Black people can dominate any activity we apply ourselves to in earnest. I think we just hyper focus of dominating sports





They eliminated the original flavor of affirmative action.

Black people after de-segregation of schools before crack.
were kickin white people's asses in corporate america and business.

Do not believe these lies like we did not dominate.
Before dubya stole the election from al gore .

Black people were making strides after the crime bill. Freed us all from crack.
rhe government purposefully supplied to kill the black community.



Do not believe this concurrent lie.T
they like to tell in america.
like the hood was always accepted and a war zone. Do not believe that eight mile chambers brothers lie.

They been spinning since 20/20 aired specials on the chambers brothers to rayful Edmonds types.


To see Black america purposefully into this criminality eccentric based light. From the prison industrial economy marketed on twenty twenty specials.
Do not fall for the okie doke black urban bullshyt.
Like that Youngblood movie.

that was never a wave in the 70's.
They like to make it like.
black america was all those smoked out trump nyc ordinance based tenement featured in beatstreet either.
Black america used to thrive. Before their purposeful plans to fukk us up. Took root.

We used to kick their ass in corporate and business. They just had the new deal and methods to steal intact.

As black people we really only had a eighteen year window of possibility in america. Which was from 1968-1986.

Do not believe this grim and gloom story about us as black people. We just been chopped back down.

Ever since the 1968 commission on race they have purposefully been manipulating things. To put us exactly where we are again now.

Factually it is in the 1968 commission on race.

Do not believe this prison industrial economy based lie they made up for us as black people

It is fictional.
like rhe movie.
Titled birth of a nation.
Which creates their fictional racist lifestyle that governs america.

black don't = the hood though.

We are in the age of multi gen middle and upper middle class blacks who still chase the "make it out the hood" lanes of entertainment and athletics.

That’s why I mentioned Tiger Woods. And despite living in Orange County, he still had to deal with discrimination and there hasn’t been another Tiger Woods since.

And there was a thread recently about how most NBA players drafted within the last few years, are mainly from middle-upper class backgrounds.

Tennis is an expensive sport and (typically) geared to affluent white folk.

Plus the resources it takes to build a champion.

Wager or factor in the social dynamic and lack of resources.

Respectfully, y'all kinda taking the lazy road to thru the conversation.

Relatively speaking, football is expensive too.
Which is the reason I couldn't play, even tho it was the first sport I was attracted to.
And got pushed toward the much more cheaper sport, basketball.
But lots of people play football.

And Both sports are usually offered in school. obviously u should start young in any sport, which will take money but like I said, pads and shyt aint cheap.

Tennis, baseball and sports like soccer, which is a inexpensive sport, wasn't "promoted" toward us kids in the hood.
Really it's because how certain sports are looked at by black people.

Just like sports in general is pushed more toward us than education... Certain sports are pushed more than other sports

I got a lot to rant about this.

Actually andre agassi's father mike agassi was Iranian boxing great.
Where the agassi uppercut became agassi forehand.

I see the same thing here.


Where,..

Former undisputed boxing champion mike tyson.
Wielding the Tyson uppercut becomes the tyson forehand.



Art Barr

Facts
Im an exboxer and Ive being playing tennis the last few years.
The sht really somehow is the same thing.
I was already really advanced in the lessons I was taking because of my boxing background.
Which is crazy thought because these 2 sports seem so different
