Sad that this young woman can't win in grace. She has to go through life knowing that she won a match that upset entitled Americans. Now, Serena is making this finals about her.

Disgusting comments by Williams.

Fortunately an anomaly as most pro tennis players, both sexes, are very gracious whether winning or losing.

Serena will never be as bad as McEnroe though, man that guy could throw fits.

Another ridiculous mischaracterization of what actually happened. Did you watch the video you yourself posted? At no point does she blame losing on anything. I didn't see the whole on court scene, but if the worst she said to the ump was that he was a thief, then she actually has a point even though she could have dealt with it better. I have heard men say far worse to a chair umpire without incurring penalty.

Sports are no place for feminist nonsense.

"Serena Williams blames sexism for losing to a superior opponent"

Hmmm... Might have had something to do with a 16 year age difference also.....

Nope she didn't blame sexism for losing.
She blamed sexism for the extreme penalties.
