The worst display of conduct since Serena threatened the line judge in 2009:

During the course of this tournament, I tuned in at least 3 dozen times to watch a few minutes here and there.
There was certainly an abnormal number of lines-men, lines-women, and ball boys/girls “of color” assigned to Serena’s match yesterday, compared to other random snapshots of weeks of matches that I watched. One of the ball boys (normally appearing to be early to mid- teens) looked like he was about 25 years old, but he fit the bill in another racial sense.
I’m sure this was due to the “random” nature of match assignments of the tournament support staff. Wink, wink.
Thanks for that. That was pretty bad. I try to root for the Americans in these things, but how can one root for that?
