Aryna Sabalenka finally found something that could stop her at the US Open: the smell of marijuana.
The two-time defending champion complained to the chair umpire that it was bothering her early in her third-round victory over Kamilla Rakhimova on Friday. Sabalenka said she had never smelled the odor so strong as she did while serving early in the match.
"I don't know if it was, like, coming from the crowd or was from the outside because the wind blows it into the stadium," Sabalenka said. "I don't know. I just hope they're going to be a bit more aware of that stuff." Sabalenka was serving in the third game of the match in Louis Armstrong Stadium. She tossed the ball but then let it fall to the court. She did the same thing on the next point, with something clearly bothering her.

I’d probably need to smoke dope if I lived in NYC
The smell of drug addicts is never a good thing. Gross
I think that’s a reason NOT to be high.
Thousands of arena-playing rock musicians would tell her:
Suck it up, Buttercup. Literally.
Welcome to NY!
“ I’d probably need to smoke dope if I lived in NYC”
There is that
Apparently the guy didn’t get asked to leave. Swift kick from a companion dope slap from his wife
Too bad cigarettes are unlawful.
The whole city smells like that, you can’t get away from it, it’s awful….
Yes.
"I don't know. I just hope they're going to be a bit more aware of that stuff."
No question.
Same in LA. It stinks like a skunk everywhere you go. Disgusting.
Laura Ingraham has complained more than once that she hates the overpowering amount of marijuana smoke as she walks anywhere in NYC.
With the low quality of votes by New Yorkers I wonder if someone finally did the old hippie trick of adding LSD to the city’s drinking water. Someone said back then the chlorination process would extinguish the drug’s potency.
That sheet stinks!
That stink is everywhere in cities now. There is no getting away from it. Amazing the libs who lobby for free access to reefer are the same ones who cracked down on tobacco because of the smell.
Almost as if they want a vote base of stoned idiots.
I don’t know about Louis Armstrong Stadium, but walk down any street in Manhattan or Brooklyn, and the smell of weed is constant.
