Anyone think the response to Serena's behavior is overreaction? Possibly losing USO prize money. Possibly being banned from AO. This is getting out of hand. Yes she deserved to lose the match on a point penalty. Yes she deserves to be fined for threatening a linesperson. No she doesn't deserve to lose her prize money ($350,000) or be banned from the sport for any amount of time. That is excessive. McEnroe and Connors have been known to belittle chair umpires and get away with it. People need to get over it, because its not the end of the world. She lost her cool as the match was slipping away. Big deal we are human.
