Serena Williams’s Coach Was Caught Cheating. Now She’s Crying Sexism

The Federalist  "Serena Williams’s coach was cheating. They got caught. Now she’s crying sexism.

"A Rundown Of What Happened

"At the U.S. Open final on Saturday, Serena Williams’s coach, Patrick Mouratoglou, was caught cheating when he made hand signals to coach her as she played. The chair umpire gave Williams a code violation for her coach’s actions. Williams chewed out the umpire, insisting that she never cheats. The outburst, which was caught on camera, resulted in an additional game penalty against Williams."
. . . "If Williams’ account of what happened is the truth — that she and her coach did not discuss hand signals ahead of time and he was acting on his own — being punished for his actions makes him a liability on her team instead of an asset. But the fact remains: a member of her team admitted to cheating." . . .

Serena Williams: ‘I’m Here Fighting for Women’s Rights’

. . . "After the match, Williams said that her strong reaction was part of her fight for “women’s rights” and “women’s equality:' ” . . .
What about the rights of the woman who beat Williams?
. . . "Unfortunately for Williams and her fight for “women’s rights,” the tennis star’s coach, Patrick Mouratouglo, admitted that he was in fact giving Williams coaching. Meaning, that Ramos was entirely correct for penalizing Williams.
“ 'I’m honest, I was coaching,” Mouratoglou said after the game. “I don’t think she looked at me, so that’s why she didn’t even think I was.' ” . . .
A haunting glimpse into the Left’s morbid victimology hierarchy.  "Left-wingers say no criticism of tennis player Serena Williams should be allowed for her high-profile meltdown Saturday at the 2018 women's U.S. Open final because she is a double-minority – female and black – and should therefore be immune to criticism.

"Osaka Technically Represents the Country of Japan on the Court'   "Of playing Williams, Osaka has previously said that she hopes to emulate the famous tennis player. She said via USA Today, “I was really impressed by her and wanted to play like her when I was little. Well, I hope I’m starting to play like her now.”





Naomi Osaka says she 'feels for' crowd cheering on Serena  "Appearing on the Today show, Osaka, 20, was almost apologetic as she said softly that she 'knew' the court was rooting for her opponent and not her to win. She said she was confused when Williams started shouting at umpire Carlos Ramos after he issued her with a string of fines, and was unaware if the crowd was actually booing at her when they started jeering at Ramos."
