Another controversial loss for Serena Williams at the US Open. How many have their been?

2004 Quarterfinal against Jennifer Capriati with several blown calls. This led to the current challenge system.

2009 Semifinal against Kim Clijsters. Was given a penalty on match point and lost after she went on a tirade against a lines person for calling a foot fault.

Today's final against Osaka.

P.S. Congrats to Naomi. who is the first Japanese player to win a Grand Slam.

All that stacked bull test and she still loses?

No wonder she was irate. Did she call the ump a racist?

...

No. She was crying and claiming that men get away with it.

No class. Serena was getting her ass beat.

Called Chair umpire “theif”. Game penalty. Ironic that she STOLE the joy from the winners celebration.

Ugly tirade. Pathetic display. Glad she lost.

Congrats to Naomi. who is the first Japanese player to win a Grand Slam.

Father is Haitian, they've lived in the US since Naomi was 3.

The crowd was just as ugly for booing during the trophy presentation. They had the poor winner in tears, although $3+ mil will provide Osaka some comfort. With more endorsements to follow.

And also “I’m a mother” — like that would get her that apology she did not deserve.

“This happens to me all the time at this tournament”

Remember that other time years ago when she called out at the lines umpire (but didn’t get sanctioned that time).

Racist, sexist, homophone, white supremacist, blah, blah, blah. umpire I’m sure.
If she didn’t go there the American Fake News / ESPN I’m very very sure will...

It`s PPD

I will give Serena Williams credit. During the trophy presentation she put her arm around Osaka who was obviously upset and talked to her, tried to cheer her up.
