It seems the entire US Open shamed itself after Naomi Osaka beat Serena Williams at the US Open.
It’s shameful what US Open did to Naomi Osaka
It's an absolute disgrace.
It’s shameful what US Open did to Naomi Osaka
It’s hard to recall a more unsportsmanlike event.
Here was a young girl who pulled off one of the greatest upsets ever, who fought for every point she earned, ashamed.
At the awards ceremony, Osaka covered her face with her black visor and cried. The crowd booed her. Katrina Adams, chairman and president of the USTA, opened the awards ceremony by denigrating the winner and lionizing Williams — whose ego, if anything, needs piercing.
“Perhaps it’s not the finish we were looking for today,” Adams said, “but Serena, you are a champion of all champions.” Addressing the crowd, Adams added, “This mama is a role model and respected by all.”
It's an absolute disgrace.
She turned to Williams. “I’m really grateful I was able to play with you,” Osaka said. “Thank you.” She bowed her head to Williams, and Williams just took it — no reciprocation, no emotion.
"We have put together the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics."
