    Why is Serena allowed to behave the way that she does???
    It seems every other major she is throwing an embarrassing temper tantrum and flirting with disqualification. Isn't tennis supposed to be in the same type of class as golf, where this kind of shit would not be tolerated?

    Watching her reminds me of a real life Happy Gilmore, changing the game and culture, and not in a 2 out of 10 comedy Adam Sandler style.

    And what's worse is ESPN just completely ignores it, knowing that they'll look racist if they even address the gorilla in the room.

    Is there more to this that meets the eye? Playing drunk, telling an asian woman 1/10th her size that she's going to beat her to death with a racket, throwing her racket at a camera man today, berating line judges, when will it end?

      Aren't quarter horses the fastest animal on the planet in short distances?? People are probably afraid she'll trample them if they say anything.

        Races have cultural differences, not much genetic differences.

            Whining is a bit different than threatening someone 1/10th your size with a violent death.

              She is probably responsible for a large portion of black viewers I'm sure, I mean how many black folks are into tennis?...start getting on her ass and you could piss off a lot of people... Same as happy Gilmore...good reference.

                Maybe it's just the way she deals with the daily racism thrown her way from people such as yourself...

                  She said her opponent.. "Made lucky shots"

                  And it made me upset.



                  I wish some girl would get into a shouting match with her. It would be a classic.

                        Funny you make this solely about race. Venus seems to have a bit of class, Serena has none. From what I can tell, they're both African American women.

                        Listen to Serena argue and it'll sound like the famous clip of the girl calling the police on McDonald's for being out of crispy chicken. No reason to defend her.

                          Her and sharapova have always been the rudest stuck up twats in all of female sports. Everyone on the tour hates them both
                          The most hilarious thing was after the gorilla Serena told that ball girl she would kill her, showed up to a majors double match with her sister drunk, she was given some insane sportswoman of the year award or some shit a couple years later.

                              No Trumpthuglican you chose to make it racially charged by utilizing racially loaded words like gorilla in describing attributes of a African American person.

                              Good on ya. Now go make Mein Drumpf proud and bang your sister..

                                          That and stabbing ur leader in the back halfway through a election cycle will only encourage further division away from the two major parties...

                                            Depsite being anti-gambling Xenophon has actually turned out to be kind of pro-players a lot of the time.

                                            He might be one pollie who can see blocking non Aussie lic books from internet is only going to hurt regular punters.

                                                  The problem is JJ, we have expectations of how women should act, and when they don't act as we think they should, then it's THEM thats out of line, not our expectations.

                                                  Men in all sports do this same thing every day and worse, not a peep feom the peanut gallery. But when Serena goes on tilt, well thats not ok, shes a bitch, a twat, a kunt

                                                  Its overt sexism

                                                      Kyrios doesn't get a tick for it and neither did McEnroe when he was playing. Both get/got way worse than her I think.

                                                      Tennis players of either gender get called out for being dicks.

                                                        The media is TERRIFIED of criticizing black athletes that succeed in predominantly-white sports. Serena gets a free pass for being one of the biggest bitches in all of sports. And don't even get me started on Tiger Woods. He is a petulent, spoiled cry baby that would regularly throw temper tantrums after a bad shot. But the media is scared shitless of criticizing black people in those sports.
