🚨🇺🇸 BILL ACKMAN: TENNIS HALL OF FAME REJECTS $10M DONATION FOR "OPTICS"

Bill Ackman tried giving to tennis. 

The Hall of Fame said no because of appearances. 

So he's giving $XX million to the Junior Tennis Champion Center instead - a program that actually develops players.

Ackman: 

"In a world where no good deed goes unpunished, I will do my best to attempt another good deed for the sport of tennis"

The Hall of Fame chose virtue signaling over tennis development. 

Meanwhile, JTCC produces champions like Frances Tiafoe, Denis Kudla, and Robin Montgomery.

Institutions killing themselves with purity tests while actual programs go underfunded... Classic brain rot.
