Wow. Disgraceful. She wasn't even the best women's tennis player in 2018, much less the best female athlete on the planet. Her worst year on court since 2006 Played only 7 tournaments 0 majors 0 wins Ranked 16th Diva performance at US Open

Conveniently forgot to mention that she’s a 37 year old woman returning from a harrowing pregnancy to be the only female player on tour to make it to two finals. At 37!!!!!

Thats very good that she did that! However, does that mean she was the best female athlete of the year?

Periodtt

And she set a new standard for new moms returning to the court via association rules. Now no one will have to be sidelined if they don't want to because of postpartum complications!

White people are fuming in this thread! She's a class act period. When her peers have done and said much worse than she has ever said. Please save those crocodile tears! Congratulations G.O.A.T off maternity leave and was the only female to reach 2 back to back slam finals. Next!

Has absolutely nothing to do with color.

Well I didnt say her situation at the US open had anything to do with color Tim. I observed that the only people pressed over her getting this award are white people in THIS thread. Foh

Simone Biles is a more deserving choice; absolutely dominated gymnastics this year: led US to team gold; won the all-around gold (for the 4th time!); two gold, a silver and a bronze in individual events in this year’s world championships. Now that’s a year!

Tell that to the AP serena won and yall gon deal

100% this re: white ppl comments. I’m white, and when my thread about the US Open went viral guess who all the shit comments were from 95% were white dudes acting like they’re tennis experts when they only watch espn highlights & don’t even stay up for the Aus.

I’m beginning to notice it’s always the same demographic that constantly complains about this. Wonder why?
