If Serena Williams did indeed drown her sorrows with the noise of her own voice by going to a karaoke booth after losing her maybe or make-believe goodbye game at the US Open, it is probably just as well.
If, instead, she had turned to social media in search of buckets more of the delirious deification which cascaded onto that twirling head in the Arthur Ashe stadium, those tears would have turned from 'happy' to horrified.
By no means everyone, it transpires, subscribes to the worshipful cult of adoration upon which Queen Serena was transported from Flushing Meadows to evolution.
'Good riddance,' best sums up the feelings of countless Twitterers. Many more posted messages of what can most politely be classified as distaste for the intemperate outbursts which have pockmarked her 23 years as the dominatrix of women's tennis.
Of course there are myriad tributes out there, as well, to feed a ravenous ego. But the adulation is far from universal.
That is likely to come as a surprise to those who watched – and more importantly listened – to the televising of Serena's third-round defeat by Ajla Tomljanovic. The rapture in the stands was surpassed by the genuflection in the commentary boxes.

Unrelated, but did you see that American girl Danielle Collins last night?
She goes hard on every shot. Most aggressive female I have ever seen in tennis.
No sorry I missed it. Everyone has been doing fanfare about Serena leaving. Finally this person said something worth saying so I posted this one.
She plays tennis. Cool. So what?
You can take the girl out of Compton, but you can’t take the Compton out of the girl.
I am so sick and tired of hearing about that ugly black woman. What I want to know is, who would ever pay $.01 to see her play? White-hating liberals? You couldn’t PAY me to waste my time watching her play. And I have a question: Did they EVER do a DNA test on her to make sure she was really a female? Because I always felt she looked more like a man!
Her size and power advantage obviously made her more successful at the game then others of more normal proportion. Without that, she wouldn’t have half the victories she does. To me, that’s never made her “great” or “superior”. She would’ve been just average without the size advantage.

Yes. Say anything bad, they give you the R’ card automatically. The same way they did when you tell obama ass=lickers you didnt vote for him, and they place the imaginary KKK hat on your head. She’s great when winning but an effing rotten POS when losing.
Listen or watch the Alja match and you’ll see how much of a rotten disgraceful bitch she really is deep down..
The Williams sisters use steroids.
Bring back the normal size women tennis players!

Collins played collegiate tennis at the University of Virginia and won the NCAA singles title twice, 2014 and 2016, during her sophomore and senior years. She finished her career at Virginia in 2016 as the top-ranked collegiate player.
UVA is ‘up the road’ so we started watching her when she hit the pro circuit. She’s a “killer” - highly aggressive style & hits about the hardest you’ll see any of the women hit. She’s gradually making it farther & farther into the tournaments (semi-finalist level) & she’s going to win one of these days, probably not too far off in the future.
Is it OK if I just plain don't care?
“Listen or watch the Alja match and you’ll see how much of a rotten disgraceful bitch she really is deep down..”
I heard Serena was very rude to Alja after the game is this true?
Her (?) fame is due to steroids, drug supplements and those who chose to overlook it all.
“I have never watched professional tennis at all.
Is it OK if I just plain don’t care?”
If you didn’t care you wouldn’t be on this thread ...
Definitely the hardest hitting, most aggressive female I have ever seen.
You can also tell she is wound tight. I think she wants to serve like 3 seconds after the last point. Fun to watch.
My aunt grew up in Compton--a college town that future First Lady Barbara Bush described as "lovely" when she lived there.
You got issues.
I’m stopping by because I care about the culture of the US. For decades, the old Bread and Circuses helped to stabilize and homogenize the country. Everyone sat in front of the TV and watched sitcoms. Everyone cheered for their local professional sports team.
Much of that is gone. Many people hate Hollywood and TV. Many people are disgusted by professional athletes. Many people realize that their tax money goes to purchase bread for people who hate this country.
The times they are a’ changing. And bad behavior by Serena Williams is just another contributing factor. I don’t care about tennis. But I care about the mood of the people. And people are waking up.

Same here! That is why I posted this! Thank you so much for saying that!
Another poor discriminated black person who has made a fortune chasing a ball in the most racist nation in history. Poor Serena
