The umpires measured different. Cibulkova got her second warning at 1:1 in the third against Kerber - an NO point penalty, umpire forgot it !!!.

To be fair, it's natural to root for the American there (despite Osaka also being raised in America.)
The booing at the ceremony is crossing the line.

I've always felt like it should be held away from New York. Maybe because I'm a flyover guy but I've never associated NYC as a place that is real America.

The fact that you don't see what's wrong with the umpiring in this match is astounding.
The first call was questionable.
The second one I agree with
But the third one was downright BS from Ramos.

Anyone who attended tonight should be barred from attending ever again. Idiots supporting an idiot.
he said "I am an honest person and I was coaching" on the TV broadcast. Did you miss when they interviewed him? He 100% admitted to coaching. Serena also 100% broke her racket and 100% berate umpire and call umpire a "thief". All 3 violations were valid and Serena was only angry because Naomi was handing her butt to her.

Uhhhh, you’ve only had 2 maybe 3 incidents in the 18 years you’ve played.

I personally hate american cops, so its hard to side with a referee who is such a typical pig that he pulls his authority card and takes a game away from serena.
Typical thing to go down in america with all these law abiding pussies who think cops are cool.
That being said i cant stand the people who think serena williams deserves more attention than the top men.

Why couldn’t Venus have been the more successful sister? I highly doubt she would have turned into the monster that is Serena...

I believe it is something you lock in your panic room when you play in tournaments, and use as an excuse for every loss and/or decision that doesn’t go your way.

Not really interested in discussing the specifics of this particular match, but in general, do you guys think that the officials at the US Open "over officiate" Serena Williams matches, as compared to the other slams? Or do you think the controversies that she's had there are just coincidental to the situation? Or do they over-officiate in general? It just seems like whenever there is a questionable call, or questionable penalty, or overreaction from Williams, or controversy in general it always happens at the US Open. What do you guys think? Is the officiating consistent or different?

And Serena said "I am not a cheater" referring to coaching.

She turns the obnoxiousness up to 11 in New York. Everywhere else it’s a 9.95.

Calling an umpire a thief and demanding an apology over and over again is verbal abuse. Did it warrant a warning? I think so. Unfortunately as soon as you say it warrants a warning it’s a game penalty for a third warning.
Players have to know they can’t keep racking up warnings. You shut up when you are walking on thin ice. You don’t break your racquet when you have a code violation already.
Stupid all around performance.

tennis has rules. Serena violated the rules at an extraordinarily inopportune time. end of story.

She has really wide, unathletic hips, she has to cover them up so that the serena fanboys can keep calling her a superathlete.

Not enough officiating or enforcement of actual rules. Nadal is another culprit who gets away with murder.

Umpire did not do anything wrong.
It does not matter it’s first time for coaching violation or not.
It does not matter Serena was not watching.
Serena should let it go and play her game instead of keep complaining.
Serena had a chance to keep playing the match but she was one who blew the match.
Anyway, Naomi played well. She lost her weight and moved better. That shows she was dedicated to tennis.

You should see bullsheet on social media calling Serina brave for dealing with the bad call.

It’s consistent. Every player that has broken a frame has received a warning. And this follows the point penalty for subsequent violations.
The ONLY thing that is inconsistent has been the serving between points.
What happened to SW was right for the official. It’s not her right to demand an apology for something clearly happened. She should be ashamed.

Another classless showing by the 37 year old going on 12 who is also a narcissist and bully. Sad the commentators have the audacity to support her, like the sport would collapse or something without her. "She showed leadership." What the hell have you been smoking Pam Shriver? She showed incredible immaturity and no class.

She got her ass kicked 2-6 in a little over a half hour in the first set. Losing a point, after losing her frigging mind, did not cost her the match. Her lack of self-control and being thoroughly outplayed is why she LOST. Nothing was stolen from her. She is a disgrace. What she and the scum of the USTA did to that poor girl is shameful. The entitled, demanding, victim attitude is typical of Serena. And, shame on Everett for having her nose up Serena's rear end and playing the "sexist" card.

Rightfully. But I don't know what analogy you are trying make. Cibulkova in her match against kerber got 2 violations and didn't receive a point penalty. Yet Serena says the umpire stole a point penalty from her and she gets a game penalty? Are you kidding me?
yes, he did, but he quickly had to say that Osaka's coach was coaching on EVERY point, and then he brought Rafa into the conversation.
Serena is such an immature person. So embarrassing for her. But most of all, Osaka was robbed of her moment. I feel for her so much.
did you give any code violations to the soccer players? Just kidding.
