the way i interpret it, serena williams spoke up for all women including naomi osaka. she did notjust do it for herself. she is a veteran in the field and she has witnessed much gender bias against players in the tennis world. i personally thought it was a very interesting that she is viewed as aggressive and hysterical. iamso i am so proud that an asian woman has one grandslam tournament. indeed, many people are proud here in asia. looking at some of the sponsors, in asia. looking at some of the sponsors, they were backing a winner. we also hear why it was a huge moment for them because of the new us open champion. and before we go, we'd like to leave you with those pictures from north korea. thanks for watching. hello there. we are starting the new week in the midst of a battle between warm air and cool air. we felt the effects of both over the weekend, the warmest weather towards the south—east but the best of the sunshine and temperatures close to 25 degrees further north. further north, shower clouds and temperatures more like 16 degrees across the north—east

naomi osaka has admired serena since she was a little girl. it is overshadowing her win or a people talking about her tennis as well? it overshadows the moment u nfortu nately, it overshadows the moment unfortunately, but i think in time, this will be a very significant moment for her. it is a shame she didn't get to celebrate the way she wa nted didn't get to celebrate the way she wanted to on the court. the berlin continued for quite a long time in a presentation ceremony started. —— booing. it was only when serena williams put her arm around naomi osaka and said to the crowd that say congratulations that the crowd did start to salute the new champion. everybody there was here and washer round of world is aware that at the age of 20, she is a fantastic payer —— player, and she seems to have the ability to deal with high—pressure situations, and that is quite a rare and a 20—year—old. let's turn to some history now. in 1991, the russian city of leningrad became the first city in the ussr to change its name in a referendum, and i

osaka is the first japanese player to win a grand slam tournament. i spoke to russell fuller earlier. naomi osaka had won the first set by six games to two, playing some brilliant tennis, but we had no idea what was to come in the second set, and it all started when the umpire, carlos ramos, warned serena williams for receiving some coaching from her coach, patrick mouratoglou, in the stands. now, williams was very unhappy with this and she made her point initially politely but forcefully to ramos. she felt that he was questioning her spirit and the way she approaches the sport and her attitude. she then smashed her racquet in anger when she was broken back, when her serve was broken, and under the rules the umpire, having warned a player, then has to dock them a point. at the next change of ends, the argument continued and that's where it became more heated with williams angrily wagging herfinger in the direction of the umpire. she said "you owe me an apology. you're attacking my character. you're a liar, a thief. you won't ever be on the same court

everyone really did feel bad for osaka. i spoke to a lot of fans afterwards to get their reaction to what happened. many said they felt like serena was getting cheated out on the court but quick to acknowledge that osaka would probably win this match regardless of the game penalty serena had been given. everybody felt bad. the crowd was 95% pro serena but not that anyone was against osaka, but everyone wanted to see history and serena winning their 24th open title. they were sad that osaka didn't get to celebrate the way she should have beating her childhood idol at the u.s. open. i spoke to osaka after the match. she was almost in tears in her post press conference. she is a serena fan herself and she felt bad about what happened and knows that serena wanted to win that u.s. open. feeling bad about it at the same time. it was, unfortunate, that there were so many boos raining down when osaka should have been being celebrated out there on the court. >> all right. andy scholes and christine brennan, thank you both so much fo

naomi osaka is not against serena. in fact, one of the things serena is advocating for to really look at the box of place around athletes in terms of what emotions they can express and how tennis lessons are adjudicated, that is to the benefit of players like naomi osaka and future players to come. amy: just to correct, the umpire ray most is portuguese. finally, the featuring of serena williams and colin kaepernick's video, the video of colin kaepernick, the nike video that open'se out as the nfl in the is not signed to a team coming is who are the leaders in sports, breaking every record. >> precisely. i think that is a huge point. while the conversation has veered toward sexism inn tennis, it is really about serena as a black woman that has prompted such a visceral reaction for many black womomen. serena symbolizes the feelinings of a lot of blacack women in ths country whose bodies are scrutinized, whose parameteters for r expression seemed to be pretty tightened, who have dominated -- you know, are the best in a c
