[QUOTE="Cruz_del_Sur, post: 914903, member: 55747"] Two things: 1- Dont have the source at hand but i read (and am 99% sure it's accurate) that the overwhelming majority of warnings and penalties are issued to men. It's not even a contest actually. Using Serena's logic, all men should accuse the USTA and the US Open for discrimination. 2- What is infuriating about this is that, overall, she is part of the privileged group. Have a 30th seeded unknown player do that in the first round and he'll be sent home and never invited again. So it's not that she's not benefited, it's that she is not as benefited as some other tennis players. Cry me a ******* river. This is not rocket science: there are rules, those rules were followed, she lost the plot. Grow the **** up. The fact she brought motherhood and sex into the equation is just delusional. If you don't like the rules, create your own tennis federation, organize another tournament with the rules you want and play on it. [/QUOTE]
