Thread Name: BS: Our Emma (Raducanu) - Tennis
Subject: RE: BS: Our Emma
The match has now started, after much preamble. So, Emma’s opponent is Canadian: and to keep BWM happy, she was born in Montreal. But she has a Hispanic-sounding name but looks Asian: her father is from Ecuador and her mother is described as Filipino Canadian. I don’t have a problem with any of that, given that the world is getting smaller and more multi-racial all the time: in the words of the song “It’s a great big melting pot”. Now excuse me while I watch the match, and COME ON EMMA!
