He does bro. Had he given me a heads up sooner I could have done that for him. The shoe game has changed a little, gotta give old man a chance to get with the times.

Heard it was going to be another surprise SNKRS pass similar to Skeptas if she won... Who knows. Now we wait.

The coaching violation is questionable... but the other two violations are completely justified and could've been controlled by Serena.
So tbh, it was mostly all on her. She could've avoided the point and game penalty by just moving on and playing her game like a professional athlete.

I think she was really upset people are gonna take this win as “oh Serena lost her composure and the ump was against her”

It's sad that Serena is garnering all the attention away from Osaka's victory.
Yes, you can argue the hypocrisy of the calls she got but she broke the rules regardless.
She should've kept her composure and continued to play on.
She's already the greatest female tennis player to ever play the game and she should know better.
Regardless of the situation, Osaka won fair and square.

She got a game penalty because it was her 3rd violation (caused by her consistently berating/verbally abusing the umpire).
The umpire followed the written rules of tennis... Serena deserved the violations. There are people on both mens and womens tours who both don't get the same violations (or do get violations but oftenm don't risk anything else afterwards), hell, Serena has gotten away with some of this behavior in the past.
She was quite unprofessional throughout the whole scenario (and this isn't her first time... 2009 us open).
She got a warning for the coaching violation and regardless of whether it was fair or not, players know to be more cautious as another violation could possibly warrant penalties. This Serena incidentwas rare and never seen because most players are smart to be more reserved after a warning.
I know this must be confusing for a lot of first time tennis watchers but I find it hard to really condone Serena's actions/behavior at all.

Can Nike just end this all already and drop the shoes... like I just can't wait to get back to normal drops. You gotta check your phone 24/7 and nothing drops even on the day of the finals. I'm hoping they drop tomorrow so we all can just move on. US Open is over tomorrow and still only 1 sneaker dropped. Nike are Master Trolls.

If shoes had normal drops, you and others would be like “OMG THE BOTS ARE EATING NIKE PLZ FIX THIS AND DO A RANDOM DROP” lol

Nah dude I have'nt complain about bots for a while I understand its part of the game... I love trying to cop pairs manual it gives me a rush when I win but I go into each drop like I'm gambling. I've been hitting on a lot of pairs lately and if I dont I got patience to wait until I get something I can trade for the sneakers and if all that fails I can always pay resell. I think true random drops are cool but the way they showed all the pairs would have us think they would release during the US Open during Serena's matches although it would be at random time. I'm hoping they drop tomorrow.

And to all the people who say such violations never happen to men, watch the same umpire enforce the same:

Uhh the correction was that they stated possible drop at night when I meant to hint that the drop was gonna happen during the us open which is why I quoted the time.

Nah still ain’t deserve a game penalty when I and apparently a lot of the tennis analysts have seen other players do worse multiple times in a match and not get the same treatment from the same guy. Can’t pick and choose when u wanna enforce rules.
Serena doesn’t look good in all of this but neither does that ump
Yeah...and I pointed out that the tennis match could go into the evening in my time zone, sooooo???

ridiculous that so many people really blame the ref.
He followed the rules, like he did it with other players before. It's nothing new, that he strictly sticks to the rules. To say "men don't get a penalty" is an awful "excuse". Thiem got a warning for coaching at the FO. Djokovic got a warning for a gesture against a ref. Fognini was suspended for going at the ref verbally. The list goes on.
Serena's coach confirmed the coaching accusations...
what do you expect a ref to do when you constantly go at him and keep calling him a liar and thief?
Serena had one of her special US Open moments. Reminds me of the Kim Clijsters match. 9 years later and still the same attitude
and the times in the tennis sport have dramatically changed since McEnroe and it's a good thing. No-one would let him behave like this today.
