Realize most don't GAF about tennis (except when WF is winning a Natty :dancindeac, but watch out for Francis Tiafoe, a 20 year-old US player from Maryland (his parents immigrated to the US from Sierra Leone; his dad was a construction worker on a crew that built a tennis center at College Park, MD, and his dad was then hired as the custodian at the tennis center, and Francis essentially lived at the facility when he was growing up). Tiafoe has been rising up the rankings and is now #52. He just advanced to the round of 32 at Wimbledon, and it looks like he may face the Joker in the round of 16. FT is improving quickly, really athletic and fun to watch. Tiafoe lost a 5 set match to Federer in the US Open last year. Dude can play.
