For this week’s @newyorker, I chatted with Susan Katz Keating, the editor of Soldier of Fortune (Soldier of Fortune Magazine), about the threat of further election year violence.

Frances Tiafoe: “I’m the son of immigrant parents from Sierra Leone. When I was a kid, my dad got a construction job at College Park Tennis Club in 1999, a new tennis academy in the D.C. area. While my dad worked, I picked up the game during nights and weekends at the facility

Every year at the US Open, I am reminded that many people are excited to live out my absolute worst nightmare of being shown dancing on the Jumbotron.

It’s not like online abuse is new in tennis. Players are used to being denigrated for their race, their looks, or their mere existence on court, but the money at stake has only made everything worse. I wrote about the crisis in sports betting, for New York Magazine. nymag.com/intelligencer/…

At this year's US Open, Caroline Garcia posted a sampling of the messages she received after she lost. Some told her to kill herself; others contained threats against her family. Most were from people who had bet and lost money on her match. nymag.com/intelligencer/…
