Well if anyone could point to a vid of her coach doing said signs it’d be appreciated cos I can’t find it. I reckon she’ll part ways with him now.

Sexism in an all womens match? Hmm.

What a horrible Serena Williams is.

Or is she finally admitting to being what the whole world thinks, a man?

It seems to be about men not getting warnings when they talk back to the ref. Yet same ref and Djoko....

One of the other odd things her supports are saying is it's no big deal about saying he is a liar. Yet you see the reaction from Williams when she thinks she is being called a cheat.

The more I think of it, the angrier I get. Worst part - telling the umpire that he'll never umpire one of her matches again?! Unreal; is she saying that she can pick and choose the umpires for her matches?

Sad thing for tennis is I can see her getting off with it, Ramos being removed from her games/ being hidden for minor games etc.

The WTA's response has been pathetic. ITF nowhere to be seen.

[Horsey McHorseface]

It's an ITF tounament, nothing to do with WTA.

Take a look at the WTA website - as I say, it's response has been pathetic and sycophantic.

Wow. A new super level of ignorance.

You're referring to Serena yes?

[Leithen]

Perhaps, but it makes one wonder exactly how badly one their stars would have to behave on court to receive even the slightest level of disapproval.

Instagram so open to being fake news, etc, but this is the first I saw-

It's there, on Amazon prime, and various vid sites, take a look. Or perhaps just take the actual coach's word for it! lol


it was pretty funny, the sychophantic commentators were all high and mighty when the umpire called it, saying how she NEVR accepts coaching even on tour games where it is allowed and no wonder she is upset...……..then about a minute later, they showed the footage and they went, errrrr, errrrrr, well, eerrrrrr maybe he will be in trouble for that, he seems to be telling her to adjust her court position... then a minute later, they get a load of video computer stats up showing she is standing in the wrong palce compared to Osaka and previous games also...…….errrr, so that'll be him coaching her then....?


Hilarious. But of course, it is all just a beast of a man being unkind to a mommy on "HER COURT". BEASTSSSSS!

Big angry feminist caught cheating and pulling every card she can think of to worm out of it,
Whats her daughter got to do with anything.

Bit like that Roxanne Pallet carry on. The world is a scary place for men with idiots like these people allowed to roam free.

The amazon footage is far more damning, when you see how composed the umpire remains, (in the same shot). Truly awful woman

[anonymous-user]

I thought the ref handled it spot on.
It’s hilarious that the player denied cheating when it was plain to see & admitted by the coach ! She should be embarrassed if she watches the recording.

Not sure she has the capacity for that particular emotion.

[Stan the Bat]

What an obnoxious person she is, certainly hope she doesn't win another slam title.

[Driver101]

Her behaviour was embarrassing. I can't believe the crowd were cheering her on and backing those outbursts.

"The Frenchman later admitted that he had been coaching from the box but that Williams had not seen him doing so."

Septics, win at any cost. fk rules etc, etc...

[amare32]

Umpire followed everything to the letter. Race or gender or having a daughter had nothing to do with this.

Feel sorry for Osaka's moment of triumph was spoiled by 'Queen' Serena.

The New York crowd was disgusting.

That's simply Team USA at work.
