The OP wrote up the story as if this was the first time that there were 2 African-Americans in the finals of the US Open. I could see if the OP said for the 2nd time, we have 2 African-American ladies in the US Open finals. The wording should have been a bit different.

It's like, did I not WATCH and tape that match back from 2001 LIVE or what?
