'Last week was not easy for me': Serena Williams opens up and reveals she's suffering 'postpartum emotions' and wants other moms to know 'they are totally normal' Said it before and I'll say it again, worst sportsmanship ever. Always with the excuses. Everyone is out to pick on her. Things are unfairly stacked against her. Pulling the double whammy victim card saying she's not getting what she's due because she's black and a woman. Now her excuse for losing matches is postpartum depression. Just acknowledge that you're past your prime and should have stopped playing the sport a while back. She's going to run this until she's no longer seen as the best in the sport, whining the whole way that it's rigged and making excuses for her lackluster performance. Just bow out gracefully, take your millions, and move on to the next stage of your life, Serena.

And so, what? She lost cause she was extra tired from chimping out on this guy and beating him to death with the wet ends of his arms that she'd gorillad off a few minutes earlier? The woman has the strength of 3 regular tennis players. How many excuses does she need?

Jemele Hill, ESPN parting ways: reports Good riddance. This shows some of the ridiculous double standards in industry any more. If she would have been a man, particularly a white man... she would have been gone after that first comment. Instead she got multiple chances from management to stop her behavior and yet continued to do it anyway, all while playing the victim the entire time. You’re a sports commentator lady. No one wants to hear your personal opinions and certainly not your political opinions. You’re in the wrong field for that and you know it but you crutched on your woman status and the race card in a climate that looks favorably on you for it to keep your job this long. Go write for The Root or something if you want to spread your nonsense to a receptive audience.

Serena Williams into another grand slam final. She holds the most grand slam titles for someone during the professional era, and needs one more grand slam to equal Margaret Court's record of 24 grand slams counting amateur grand slams. Endorbr will be pleased Nadal will be looking to close to within 2 grand slams of Federer's record 20 grand slam titles, and Djokovic will be looking to make it grand slam 14 for him. Federer is 37 years old, while Nadal and Djovovic are roughly 5 years younger than Federer, so both have time on their side to try to overtake Federer's record. A Japanese player named Nishikori is in the semi final as well, and if he can somehow win, he would be only the 2nd person representing an Asian nation to win a grand slam after Li Na from China.

I will only complain about how the media fauns over her and how much she will blame game everyone and everything except herself if she loses. She has terrible sportsmanship, especially when she isn’t winning.

She has terrible sportsmanship, especially when she isn’t winning. Got no argument with me there. She may be the best player of all time, but she is far from being the best sport. Many tennis players are spoilt brats from rich families, there's 2 Australian tennis players (named Kyrios and Tomic) whom are more poorly behaved than Serena, and Andy Roddick was renowed for arguing with the umpires even when the umpires umpired within the rules, and he often blamed injuries for his loses , hence he won only 1 grand slam, despite being more naturally gifted than many other players. Martina Hingis slapped an umpire one time. I think many tennis players have spoilt brat syndrome.

Already not a Serena Williams fan, that’s obvious, but I really can’t stand how the media fawns all over her. Like this story: Good luck to Serena Williams as she chases record held by homophobe And the basis of them calling the current record holder, Margaret Court, a homophobe? This statement: “You stand with values for family and different things, so you are a voice, and then you get persecuted for that. You are not hating the people. You love the people, but you get taken that way. And I say marriage is between a man and a woman." and this: "That's what Hitler did and that's what Communism did – it got to the mind of the children," Court said, according to published reports. “And there's a whole plot in our nation, and in the nations of the world, to get to the minds of the children.” Just what is homophobic or inaccurate about either of those statements? Nothing. But we need to make the current record holder look bad so we can make Serena look even better, right?

Naomi Osaka beats Serena Williams for US Open amid umpire controversy I’m not going to beat around the bush about it, I’m glad she lost. Just like I’ve said countless times before the media is trying to paint her as a victim rather than just the one who lost. The media writes it as, clearly she lost because the umpire had it in for her. Rather than the umpire was right to go after her for her shitty conduct. Terrible sportsmanship. She got bested by someone nearly 2 decades her junior. Is American media going to cover the actual winner, Naomi Osaka? Give her praise for her talent and skill? Nah, much easier low hanging fruit to argue that Serena was robbed. Much better clickbait anyway. I expect to see several more articles over the next week apologizing for her loss and blaming the umpire, gravity, and of course racism and sexism as the real reason she lost.

Nah, much easier low hanging fruit to argue that Serena was robbed. Much better clickbait anyway. I expect to see several more articles over the next week apologizing for her loss and blaming the umpire, gravity, and of course racism and sexism as the real reason she lost. Nothing controversial about it. When you lose 6-2 6-4 , it means you got your ass handed to you. She commited multiple violations. You cannot receive coaching during the match, this is been an issue throughout the tournament, because Murray claims an opponent spoke to their coach during a toilet break. Federer was furious when an umpire tried to encourage another spoilt brat player named Kyrios to finish a match and not quit because spectators paid money to watch (which is the same as an umpire coaching Kyrious). Serena used hand signals to communicate with her coach during the match. That is the same as her coach giving her information. Serena isn't being picked on, she broke a rule, which gives her an unfair advantage, and othe players in the tournament were unhappy when they saw the rule being broken. Smashing a racket will get you violations. Many players get violation warnings for smashing a racket. Whether those players are men or women, black or white. Her self-entitlement is shocking. She thinks it's all about her and how the umpire is ''sexist''. She said ''Osaka played well'', but then said the umpire is a ''thief'' and ''cheated her''. How about giving credit where it's due, and say Osaka was too good for me on the day. The crowd was actually mostly supporting Serena (their fellow American), but yet Serena told people to ''stop booing her'' as if she thinks she's the victim and there's some onspiracy out to sabotage her. Some tennis experts say one of Serena's problems is she lives in a bubble. She sometimes doesn't know if her opponent is a top 10 ranked player, and to not study your opponent before a match will get you undone.

Serena Williams’ coach Patrick Mouratoglou has admitted coaching his charge during her 6-2,6-4 US Open women’s final loss despite Williams denying the mentor tried instruct her from the stands. Williams was caught up in an altercation with chair umpire Carlos Ramos, after the official accused her of being coached by Mouratoglou. Her coach appeared to be signalling to Williams that she needed to get to the net more to unsettle her opponent. “I don’t cheat to win, I’d rather lose. I’m just letting you know,” a fired-up Williams told the umpire. “I can understand how you made that thought but I don’t cheat.” Unfortunately for Serena, Mouratoglou confirmed that he was sending instructions from the stands in an interview with ESPN. "I’m honest, I was coaching. I don’t think [Serena] looked at me, so that’s why she didn’t think I was (coaching)," the coach told Pam Shriver. Maybe the American media protects Serena, because the issue of race is a delicate subject in America, but the Australian media has never been afraid to tell it how it is. The Australian media will even blast Australian athletes who conduct themselves poorly, such as Aboriginal Australian boxer Anthony Mundine, who tried to use the fact he is black for people not liking him , or things not going his way. ‘What does it do to her legacy?’ Serena Williams under fire over US Open meltdown wwos.nine.com.au/tennis/serena-williams-legacy-could-be-tarnished-by-us-open-meltdown/13603fce-f0c6-44db-9e93-033e2c871e15

Osaka apologized to the crowd. ''I'm sorry it had to end like this," she said through tears. "I just want to thank everybody for watching the match." Just sad that her win had to be tainted like that.

Much like Tiger Woods here we have a black athlete in a sport not yet dominated by blacks, so we make excuses. We inflate. We try to look the other way when they behave badly. But Serena is beyond the pale, in my opinion. I know tennis has a long history of bratty, bitchy players but she just makes it into a circus. Her time in the spotlight cannot end soon enough. (Can't wait to find out about doping; there's got to be a reason why she's built like an East German weightlifter)

She deserves it for her shitty sportsmanship.
