What a disgrace. 2 Russians and 2 China players win the quarters. So Russians are masters of the PED, and Chinese are commies. Probably also great cheaters. :o I hope they all retire and nobody wins, because there are no winners in the last 4 anyways! :D

Bob: I don't think all Russian players are cheaters. Sharapova has been a cheater indeed, but that doesn't mean all Russians are doing the same.

Yo Nina. I could send you numerous links to Russian sports cheating but it should not be necessary. You seem to be aware of what is going on in general. The Russians were banned from the Olympics for 10 years because of what the did in the 2014 Olympics. I mean good lord, look what happened with the Russian skaters in the last olympics. They didn't compete as Russian because that was banned. So they competed under a different bullcrap name. It was a disaster. Russians cheat in sports. Period. I think Russian athletes should be banned from any international competition. Including tennis. Sharapova was not an outlier, sh just happened to get caught. After she made around $200 million dollars. And the scum on ESPN still talk about her as if she were a legitimate player. Makes me wanna puke. I think that some Russian athletes are forced to cheat by Russian government, but it is still cheating. I'm not singling out any Russian athlete. They all cheat.
