Well I definitely called that one wrong! Lol
Del Potro played well but Djokovic was immense! His defence is unreal!

Shame as I really don't like him. Terrific player though, no doubt about that.

The WTA has waded into the Serena thing. What a farce. She threw her toys out the pram , yet its suddenly a sexism issue now.

Apparently criticising Serena Williams for going ballistic at the umpire is sexism. Or racism perhaps. Something. Cartainly, it isn't her fault.

This is an amazing story. 20 year old Haitian-Japanese girl wins the US Open by beating her idol. That should be what we are discussing about, not Serena's petulance.

You could see on the girls face how much it was getting to her.

Shameful as fuck from everyone single one of them. That's all that's being mentioned. Poor kid has just deservedly beaten her in a final and all the focus has to be solely on Williams and she's made sure of that by playing the sexist card to get more attention. Cockwomble.

Truly disgusting behaviour from Serena who came, I would’ve thought,within a whisker of being disqualified, and as for the crowd for booing Osaka, typical of the old Flushing Meadow mob.

How is it sexist, when both players were Women?
How is it racist when both players were of a different Ethnicity to the umpire?
He only 'picked' on one of them, maybe just because she was a gobshite.

Apparently it was being male players are treated differently to females which is bullshit. Fed up of sexist and racist card being used.

They're allowed to be coached on the general tour, just not in Grand Slam events. Men ain't allowed to be coached at all. Nobody gives a shit about equality, as long as it suits them.

I thought she mentioned it in regards to a certain rule which resulted in her being given a 1 game penalty, not so much general ruling. Agree with the equality part though. Only ever and issue when it suits.
