For reasons unknown to us, an Australian tennis fan decided to show up to ‘support’ Serena Williams during her semifinals match against Agnieszka Radwanska wearing blackface.

We’re not sure if this lady is serious, or if she’s trolling us all. There are plenty of other ways to support Serena Williams (or any other Black person) that doesn’t involve racist caricatures.
Also, Serena won her match and will take on Angelique Kerber in the finals.
