This is outrageous. How can someone draw a cartoon like this in this day and age and have it published in a major newspaper??
What the shitting goddamn fuck.

She put her arm around Osaka to comfort her, and implored the pro-Serena crowd, which was still ticked because chair umpire Carlos Ramos gave her a severe game penalty in the second set of her 6-2, 6-4 loss to Osaka, to stop with the Bronx cheer.

Male cartoonist decides to draw a racist caricature of Williams, completely erase Osaka’s likeness and invoke the age-old sexist idea that women don’t get along.
This dehumanization of Serena Williams that happens in the tennis world every 2-3 years has to stop.
Celebrate the truth. Tennis has never had this many black women champions and the racists are intimidated on a global scale.
