But Trumps mob are paid actors as proven recently when one student was expelled for not cheering hard enough nor wearing his red cap. I doubt Serena would have paid for thousands to attend with expensive ticket prices.

She now has to pay a huge fine instead;

Serena Williams' substantial fine after US Open final outburst
AFP, News Corp Australia Network
an hour ago
SERENA Williams has been fined $US17,000 ($A24,000) by the US Tennis Association in the wake her outburst during a controversial US Open final loss to Japan’s Naomi Osaka.

She'll pay that fine by raiding her kid's piggy bank. Just peanuts (a ban from two grand slams would have been better).

Prima Donna!!!!
 
She claimed sexism in that male perpetrators have been worse than her and did not cop a game penalty. Maybe could claim the sexism and racism card - double whammy, the ref was white and male so sussy.

Sorry CB I don't get your Simpsons cartoon because simultaneously I listen to CNN or MSNBC re Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon with earphones.

Just watched the report on the news. Me, me, me, me me.

Exactly, she has been like that for years.

And pretty quick to play the victim card too…

So much for dignity and sportsmanship.

She did it a few years ago against Clijsters. Said " I will kill you" to lineswoman lol
 
She is an extremely poor loser, with all the excuses in the world on offer after a defeat. She is also a very arrogant and undignified winner more often than not too.
Seems like a very fake person IMO.

She may have more majors than Martina Navratilova but isn't in the same league when it comes to dignity, respect. humility and graciousness.

Serena is a bell-end, hope she doesn't find that sexist :brick:

Racism? Sexism? Wasn't she playing a female from a minority race?

Maybe tennis wise… But Japan?
Minority?
Im guessing sarcasm but I don't get it

I'm just saying this wasn't a white female from a privileged background. The winner was born in Japan but has lived in the USA since she was 3\. So she is a minority in the states.

If naomi left Japan when she was 3 then her Japanese (Osaka-ben) is flawless. There is no accent what so ever.

I don't know the woman personally and I know stuffall about tennis. I'm just going by what the foghorn on Fox Sports said.
 
Well there you have it. The Fox Sports people have the facts straight. She did leave Japan aged 3.

Apparently her father is from Haiti and in 2016 she reckoned her Japanese stank.

I know I shouldn't put all Americans in this category , but you just see it all the time unfortunately

Serena has some really bad habits when you watch her play , if she ever loses the first set her grunting just get louder and louder , all the stuff that happened when she played Stosur in the final

Her coach has admitted he was giving her coaching when the code violation occurred , what so it doesn't matter because she allegedly didn't see it occur

She smashed her racquet which is an immediate code violation and I've never seen anyone since the rule changed get away with it …....ever.......

She calls the umpire a cheat , imagine if it was Billy Harragon , third offence

She got 2.8 million for being a finalist and got some pitiful 30 k fine , what is this teaching anyone , cricket you lose your match fee for 1 offence and it sureas hell isn't 2.8 million

The American fans all booing the young Japanese player

Ever want to see bad sportsmanship , watch a Ryder Cup (Europe v USA Golf )played in the US when the US are losing It was disgraceful what was happening in some of the matches , US fans were yelling as European players were driving and putting and then when the US players all ran across the green and the European players putting line when the US player sunk the putt was just a joke

It's about time many Americans learnt that the sun doesn't shine from their own klackers and the rest of human beings on this planet aren't 2nd class citizens

I don't know if this is true or not but someone told me that some American fans have posted comments in regards to Hiroshima and Nagasaki on this young girls facebook page

Are you kidding ............

Some americans cant tell the difference between patriotism and bigotry i know all countries have people like this but in the USA there does seem to be a higher percentage than in other first world countries.In part i am sure americans in general believe the rest of the world envies them and wishes they where like them in the USA ignorance is bliss

To assume that all Americans think that the world revolves around them is no different to Williams thinking that all men are out to get her.
 
When you threaten an official like Serena did then you have no capacity to take the moral high ground. The fact her coach has admitted to coaching should vindicate the umpire. The worst part is her behaviour lead to a poor girl having to accept her first grand slam title in tears, when it should have been her crowning moment. For Serena to try and calm the crowd down then and be the good guy was horrible, it should never have gotten to that. At any other slam she is probably boo'd off the court.

It's not the first time Serena has pulled this crap either. I respect her as a tennis player, as a professional sportswoman she may be the best to have ever lived, but she behaves appallingly at times.

So the crowd boos st the presentation and the winner is reduced to tears
All class yanks and William's has no credibility whatsoever

Really?, what a joke they are. The poor girl has just beaten her idol and is no doubt struggling with the situation and then has to put up with that crap. Serena has lowered herself and the crowd to a Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon like level.

Lol. "Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon like level" Just LOL.
Lets see . . . Williams plays the "bet that wouldn't happen to a man " card. PC left at it's best.
Plays the " I've got a daughter" card. Bleeding heart hand wringing at it's best. ( WTF has having a daughter got to do with cheating at tennis ?)
Williams lies about her crew not coaching her from the sidelines.
She gets beat fair and square, and her supporters boo and jeer the opponent( the victor)
Sound familiar ? Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon like. Hahahahaha. It is TEXTBOOK Hillary like.
To even mention Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon's name in something that has absolutely no connection with him . . . regardless of the fact you are 100% wrong . . . tells me you need to let it go. It's another country. He won. Hillary lost. It ain't gonna change. :deadhorse:

. . . . preparing for the barrage from the righteous in 3-2-1 . . .

Serena urged the crowd to stop booing

After realising she was the whole instigator in making the fans boo in the first place.
