    Serena Williams is the best professional athlete of her generation. While competition brings out the best and worst in all of us (and we didn’t see her best), what she did was nothing in comparison to John McEnroe’s behavior or that of countless athletes in other sports.

        How about threatening to shove a tennis ball down someone’s throat. Or making fun of the umpires looks set after set.pic.twitter.com/O3y1h7SD4i

        Also, the umpire escalated rather than de-escalating, which happens a lot in baseball before players end up getting ejected.

        If being so strict is in character for that umpire, then assigning him to that match would seem a major USTA fail. Anyway, as I said yesterday, b/c it was a final: Unless SW or NO threw a punch or lit the net on fire, you just let them play. #OneGuysTake

        She's the best of all time, not just our generation and I agree on the other points.

        John did not use being female as an excuse, she has scared female officials to the point of stopping the match. She’s a bully.
