I guess I won’t enter into much more details about the disgraceful outburst of Serena Williams as the tale of the story was already told in its full extent, and I suggest you to read Kevin Yue’s answer to understand my position as it’s very close to mine.
About the article, I don’t expect much more of a very partisan “magazine” like The Atlantic and others similar that I’ve read that basically defend Serena just because she’s a “woman of colour” which is basically the same argument of the “woke anti-racist” people that haven’t seen just one match not played by the Big-3 + Serena to understand how the journeymen and journeywomen play and how their behaviour are.
If Serena was trying to “be nice to Osaka when she got the crowd to stop booing” or she was just “trying to save face”, at this point, it doesn’t matter to me, the damage was already done, Osaka’s first Grand Slam title is already tainted by the leftist press defending the valiant effort of Serena Williams to stand up to a male umpire and will not mention how well Naomi was playing at that point (62 43 and serve) before things started to get completely out of control.
For now on, the doubt has been seeded into the minds of the non literates on tennis because we’ll never know how Osaka would have reacted after recovering the break at 1–3 down (the point penalty moment), or the key break hold at 4–3 Osaka serving (the game penalty moment) as those persons will be easily influenced by the hordes of the “woke anti-racist” that the umpire Carlos Ramos manipulated the result of the match in order to help Naomi.
It’s actually sad and frustrating to see Serena Williams, arguably the greatest woman ever to play tennis, act like that and not even apologizing after things calmed down (which ironically did it after the 2009 and 2011 US Opens).
Thanks for the A2A, James.
