    Serena Williams meltdown

    Dang,
    She is such a powerful athlete and obviously the best women's player ever, but dang she is such a drama queen

    She was getting her a@@ handed to her yesterday, and just berated the umpire for doing his job. Even her coach admitted he was trying to coach her from the stands ( which is a dumb rule anyway) .....
    Lost a point then lost a game after calling the umpire a thief...lol

    Couldn't have happened to a better person IMHO

        Don’t know the first thing about tennis or Williams but I just read an article and sounds like the umpire followed the rule book. She broke the rules, got penalized, and threw a fit. But of course in this day its always somebody else’s fault and now she’s crying “sexism”.

          Acted like a spoiled brat.

          I feel sorry for the young lady who won. Everyone should be talking about her instead.

              The only question about all that was whether she was going to play the race card or the sexism card. Looks like she chose the latter.

                    Her opponent was a woman too and didn’t act like an idiot.

                    How do you pull the sexism card when you are competing against someone of the same sex?

                    Also... how do you advance women’s issues by winning a major pregnant... by beating... other women?

                      Why worry about others breaking the rules?!? You broke em, you knew it happened... suck it up and act like a champion, not a spoiled child...

                          John McEnroe did the same thing years ago. She just lost it. Not saying I approve of her behavior, but it does happen in tennis as in other sports. She definitely was way out of line.

                            Yep. If the girl she beat (Osaka) wasn’t half black you can bet the race card would have used. I felt so bad for what should have been a great moment for Osaka and the spoiled brat in a tutu ruined it.

                              That was my initial thoughts. However, it was based on her opinion that the men don’t get penalized like she does hence the idea that the women are treated differently. At least that’s what I got from some of the post game discussion & comments. She doesn’t fair well when getting beat. Wasn’t very professional in her approach to the chair umpire
