cbcsports CBC, why arnt you supporting canadians? People of Ontario want it open, and science clearly backs the position of opening (I can link proof from experts). So why isnt the press ever on the peoples side?

cbcsports ♥️

cbcsports It's interesting how because she abandoned her American nationality, the rest of her heritage is being ignored in favour of just Japan's.

cbcsports I support her 100% for pulling out of the tournament. But if she has personal issues to resolve, she needs to do that before entering any future tournaments.

cbcsports Naomi is a brave woman. Kudos to her for standing up for herself. She is a hero to my grand girls.. one of whom is in competitive sport💕

Naomi Osaka receives support from Japan, athletes after withdrawing from French OpenNaomi Osaka stunned the tennis world when she pulled out of the French Open on Monday after being fined and threatened with expulsion for declining to face the media after her first-round match So we commodify sport, force the athletes who want to play at the elite levels to not only play their best, but also prop up the business side, then drop them if they just want to focus on the game and their health. Or we could simply allow these athletes to play each other, with no press present, no spectators present, no tv, no radio and see where that goes. When things get down to the basics, we pay her salary. No fans, no press, no money.
