        Serena also essentially caused her to get booed because she had a hissy fit in the middle of the match and was losing.

        Oh yeah sure they were. Then why did Serena have to tell the audience to cheer for Naomi? Oh yeah, cause they were booing her. She couldn't even smile cause of the boos. Just admit you're wrong.

        Do you watch tennis? By booing the organisers, they weren't applauding the winner so Serena said that for them to realise the bigger picture and show respect for the winner. They were mad at how Serena was treated, nothing to do with Naomi beating Serena. All anger was at US Open

        Yes I do. Why did Naomi feel the need to apologize for fucking winning? Because she was being booed. Also explain how I've seen hundreds upon hundreds of tweets and comments saying Naomi doesn't deserve it.

        And of course people were booing at her. Immediately after she won there were boos.

        You do understand the series of events and actions that led up to that point, don't you? Breaking a tennis racket in anger does not exude elegance, grace, or dignity; neither does yelling at an official who is doing his job.

        Let's not go down the Republican road of using "whataboutisms". She was given a code violation, which she may not have deserved. She was then classless and broke her racket, which then led to her being classless again by mouthing off to the umpire. Facts.

        Why the fuck we talking about class? Is she giving a deportment lesson or playing a tennis match?? Have we ever called a man classless for breaking a racket or talking back?? And dictionary is showing her class in supporting her fellow competitor even when losing? Can u read?

        Remember what I said about your Republican "whataboutism" usage? The tweet that has led to this interaction claimed that Serena acted with class today, which I refuted with very obvious and reasonable evidence.

        I know you're a man because you speak with such "authority" yet what you're saying is bullshit. There is nothing classless about a woman smashing a racket or shouting at an umpire. There is your facts. The tweet was referring to AFTER the game. Your answer says A LOT about you.

        Elegant-less, Grace-less and un-dignifying manner Serena acted was shameful. Osaka didn't deserve to be booed, Serana's tantrum was a major contributing factor.
