“It was very sad to see her almost feel ashamed that she won given the incessant booing from the fans.”
True, but this is what I don’t get — why the near hero worship coming from the US Open fans for Serena? She has a history of whining and complaining when things dont’t go well for her. I thought Osaka showed all the class and I don’t see why fans couldn’t show her more support.
It does not help that the announcers absolutely FAWN over Serena - Chrissy Evert had a mournful tone when Serena tanked today and she (Evert) sounded like a sore Hillary voter on Election Night 2016.
I do think breaking the racket today was gamesmanship after losing the 1st set, attempting to rattle the less-experienced Osaka. Backfire, haha!
Today Serena pulled the “female” card, back when she blamed a hospital for not sooner diagnosing a blood clot after she gave birth, it was racism.
Serena is a liberal icon. She raised the treatment of women during her diatribe against the umpire. She supports Colin K and his kneeling. Liberals are always victims or the defenders of victims. These are NYC fans.
