idolizes serena. christine, touching on what happened with serena today on the court, the comments she made b about things like this always happen to me here. is there, has there been some sort of bias against serena by the umpires at arthur ashe or other parts of the u.s. open in the past that you know of? >> about ten years ago, there was a -- on serena in the u.s. open. people might remember this. she took the ball and like said she was going to shove it down the official's throat. it was really a bad moment for her. and that about ten years ago now. so there was that. i think the key point here and andy of course laid it out beautifully. the key point is that if tennis were kind of like golf, in other words, where no one yells. no one swears. no one gets mad. by the way, not saying serena swore. she said you're a thief, you stole point from me. if tennis did not have john mcenroe or misbehavior galore, especially by the men, then i think what happened to se rearea, the chair umpire taking control

but i don't think serena did either. >> well, you know, the coach, serena's coach, actually admitted he was coaching her on the sidelines which is against the rules so what exactly did he do? >> well, he gave her some hand signals you could see the video, he's giving her hand signals and he said everybody coaches. he's right. everybody does coach. but everybody speeds 75, 80 miles an hour. if you get a ticket, you get a ticket. he got caught. now, the umpire could have easily defused it by saying listen, serena, nobody is saying you're cheating. serena took it personally as a person affront. i've seen rafael nadal get coaching violation warnings in the middle of huge matches. he gets pissed off, he vents and moves on. serena got pissed. she could have moved on. she didn't entirely move on. she kept going and that's where i think she has to take responsibility for doing that. but also it has to be said that she has a point when it comes to gender bias. i believe that a chair umpire who is a man against another man would have said, listen, whether it's rafael nadal or roger federer, li

serena. he says everyone does it. he does it all the time and, guys, this is the first time he has ever been penalized for it during a match. >> so i want to ask you, christine, this tweet from john ziegler. he says a question for the female media types breathlessly retweeting sale jenkins column accusing the umpire to be a c f chauffeurist. >> every sport has its idiosyncrasies and phantom tag in baseball and all different kinds of plays. you could call holding on every play in football and cheating and faking a little you wouldn't call it cheating, it's gamesmanship. it's well known in tennis, as everyone has been saying the last 12 hours, everyone coaches. so the question then is why was serena penalized if everyone is receiving coaching? billie jean king, everyone. take my word for it. and then, again, in terms of language, folks just look at history. john mcenroe, jimmy connors and as james blake supported out in serena williams, he has said worse and never been penalized so why, if that

everyone focussed on serena. serena is going to take us to another conversation about equality that we should absolutely have. the game of tennis should be figuring out -- >> we should all welcome that conversation. >> one of the rules -- >> i want to get your response. what do you think of this? >> that was so horrible when i saw the exaggerated features on serena and penning naomi as a white blond. i thought it was an awful cartoon. it is just a really bad look. it's really uncalled for. it depicts serena in that way. >> i love having you on. fantastic conversation. thank you so much. >>> oakland raiders running back marshawn lynch sat during the national anthem tonight. is the message behind the nfl protest being lost? ♪ flintstones! meet the flintstones. ♪ ♪ they're the modern stone age family. ♪ ♪ from the town of bedrock. ♪ meet george jetson. ♪ ♪ his boy elroy. with instant acceleration, electric cars are more fun to drive and more affordable than ever. electric cars are here. plug into the

then after it was over, serena went at ramos again. he penalized serena again. since it was her third offense, she was penalized a game for verbal abuse. when serena realized the penalty, she went at ramos again and asked for the supervisor saying in tears the treatment wasn't fair. >> it's not right. it's not right! that's not right, this is not fair. >> reporter: serena went on to lose the match 6-2, 6-4 against osaka. the fans were booing throughout the exchange, and afterward serena said she was proud of the way she handled things. >> i can't sit here and say i wouldn't think he was a thief because i thought he took a game from me, but i have seen other men call umpires several things. and i'm here fighting for women's rights and for women's equality and for all kinds of stuff. and for me to say, thief, and for him to take a game, that made me feel like it was a sexist remark. i mean, he's never took a game from a man because i said thief. for me, it blows my mind, but i'm going to continue to fight for women and to fight for us to have equal -- i should be

everyone focussed on serena. serena is going to take us to another conversation about equality that we should absolutely have. the game of tennis should be figuring out -- >> we should all welcome that conversation. >> one of the rules -- >> i want to get your response. what do you think of this? >> that was so horrible when i saw the exaggerated features on serena and penning naomi as a white blond. i thought it was an awful cartoon. he defended his cartoon. it is just a really bad look. it's really uncalled for. it depicts serena in that way. >> i love having you on. fantastic conversation. thank you so much. >>> oakland raiders running back marshawn lynch sat during the national anthem tonight. is the message behind the nfl protest being lost? we'll talk to the new orleans saints player. he trying to cut through the controversy and refocus on racial justice. from the very beginning ... it was always our singular focus. to do whatever it takes, use every possible resource. to fight cancer. and never lose sight

serena. he says everyone does it. he does it all the time and this is the first time he has ever been penalized for it during a match. serena had a different take saying she had not been coached and she doesn't do that. a bit of a disconnect between what serena and her coach said after the match. >> andy, thank you. sean, i want to go to you now, because it was tweeted serena is right and i was there and worse he was baiting her. did you see anything like that going on? >> it was tough to tell whether there was baiting going on. the big thing, the big question here is "thief" is that enough of an insult to require -- the game penalty which really was at a crucial moment. it made the second set 5-3 osaka. it looked like serena was upset. you could argue she knew she had two violations. she had two violations and you have to be careful with the third. you go to say basketball, for example, at the end of close games, the refs kind of swallow their whistles and don't call technical fouls when sup

ramos penalized serena again. since this was her third penalty, she was given a point taken away for verbal abuse. >> that's not right. this is not fair. >> serena goes on to lose 6-2, 6-2, 6-4 to osaka. fans were boosting throughout the exchange. and after the match, serena said she was proud of the way she handled things. >> i can't sit here and say they didn't think he was a thief because he took the game from me, but i have seen men call other umpires several things. and i'm here fighting for women's rights and for women's equality and for all kinds of stuff. and for me to say, thief, and for him to take a game, it made me feel like it was a sexist remark. he's never took a game from a man because i said thief. for me, it blows my mind. but i'm going to continue to fight for women and to fight for us to have equal -- i should be able to take my shirt off without getting a fine. this is outrageous, you know? and i feel like the fact that i have to go through this is just an example for the next person that has

she once serena to win. she has to get out of that mindset in order to compete with her but she said when serena embraced me at the net it was like i was a kid again and i was her big fan. i think that is such a strong point. her father, who is haitian, got her into the sport after watching the williams sisters. he mimicked the blueprint to get naomi into the game. very much this is part and parcel the same thing. 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. >> prec

you cannot make an argument against what serena is saying. you can't. you can dislike the behavior potentially that you saw. we also need to say that serena did a great job of defusing the situation in the ceremony afterwards saying no more boo'ing. put her arm around naomi and tried to turn the page. without a doubt, serena has a great point on this one. >> i thought so as well. she put her arm around her and said let's celebrate this champion as well, right? this is bigger than this tournament or this match. finally, you end your column with a challenge to the sport, right? to everyone and say tennis, it's your serve. so, what happens next? >> again, i hope that these governing bodies are serious about what they're talking about. there are some women in charge of these governing bodies and organizations. so that's a positive development. not that men can't also affect change but they have to do it. this is such a black eye for the sport at this great crowning achievement, this momentous time in the history of the sport and then you've got it mired in

because it was her third offense, serena was docked a full game. at this point, serena is in tears. she was bleeding with officials, noting men do and say far worse on the court without punishment. >> it's not right. that is not right. that's not right. this is not fair. >> the final score, 6-2, 6-4, osaka. andy scholes joining me now from flushing meadows, new york. lot of reaction after this happened. has it cooled down at all? what are people saying today. >> i'll tell you what, erica, this was one of the wildest sporting events i've ever attended, and i never thought i would say that about the u.s. open women's finals. the fans were getting so emotional in the stands last night watching what was unfolding with serena on the court as she was breaking down, just pleadsing hing her case. they were booing at the top of her lungs, ever since serena had her first spat with the umpire, carlos ramos. they were even unhappier as things unfolded. i caught up with a lot of the fans as they were leaving here last night. many of them very proud of the way serena stood up for herself. >> it i

williams was right to stand up serena williams was right to stand up for herself. she's been allies for standing up by herself, she argues. how does this situation defuse, there was a fine but no sign of any apology, do you think one will be forthcoming?” of any apology, do you think one will be forthcoming? i don't think there will be an apology from serena williams because she feels what she said very strongly. she was warned for coaching, coaching did take place, but it wasn't at her request. head coach made the signals in the box and quite probably serena williams didn't even see them. it is clearly a breach of the rules and she feels her character is being attacked. and the pressure of the situation annabel croft is referring to, here she is on home cholo daily— macro to, here she is on home cholo daily—macro soil, to, here she is on home cholo daily— macro soil, try to, here she is on home cholo daily—macro soil, try to equal the re cord daily—macro soil, try to equal the record and the match is getting away from her. it isn't unusual for players

do you believe the serena williams was the victim of sexism? megan: i think she's pretty clearly the victim of a double standard, in this case and many other cases. one mistake many people have made is looking at this case in a vacuum. serena williams has been the victim of sexism and racism throughout her entirer. an so to look at this when the same umpire, carlos ramos, has declined to make the same penalty agnst people like novak djokovic, rafa nadal, andy murray, it seems pretty clear that serena williams is held to a higher standard than other people, yes. laura: but how much responsibility does she herself bear what happened because of her own behavior?me n: you know, she would certainly say it was not her proudest moment. a she incredibly competitive person, and she does have ain history of lher temper when she is losing a match and when she feels like the calls are unfair against her. so, sure, i think she would certainly admit that she bears some responsibility. she also took on almost all of the responsibility for cleaning the mess up

i know that serena is a crowd favourite. it's new york, america and the us open and i know everyone knew how bad she wanted to win a 24th grand slam. for me, since i was a kid, i know for sure, if i was in the crowd, i would have been pulling for serena too. i'm really grateful they were so kind to me, and it was my first grand slam, so i was very thankful for that. japanese prime minister took to twitter to congragulate osaka and thanked her for "giving japan a boost of inspiration at this time of hardship". many japanese are thrileld by her victory, but some still view her as not fully japanese. to know how this victory is being viewed by osaka's fans, i spoke to hwaji shin, associate professor of sociology at the university of san francisco. the achievement helped her. japan appears to have fully embraced her historic victory with such national pride and i still hear some people criticising her lack of fluent japanese and racial purity but japanese society are embracing her as one of theirs. and it was crucial that she bo

serena williams has been thect of sexism and racism throughout her entire career. and so to look at this when the heme umpire, carlos ramos, has declined to makeame penalty against people like novak djokovic, rafa nadal, andy murray, it seems prettr tho serena williams is held a higher standard than other people, yes. laura: but how much responbility does she herself hat happened because of her own behavior? megan: you know, she would certainly say it was not her proudest moment. she is an incredibly competitive person, and she does have a history of losing her temper when she is losing a match and when she feels like the calls are unfair against her. so, sure, i think she would certainly admit that she bearspo some ribility. she also took on almost all ofsi the resplity for cleaning the mess up, when everybody was booing. the scene of her first putting her arm around naomi osaka, who won a wonderful match, she looked amatang -- and then ng the microphone and saying to the crowd, "you are not going to boo, you are going to let osaka have this moment, it is so impor

people will say both carlos and serena were wrong. more people are on serena's side. many people think that ramos should try to deescalate the situation as posed to hitting serena with a third code violation. others think she overreacted in this situation. maybe if she was winning she would have brushed off the first code violation as opposed to going at ramos because she did have a frustrating first set. s serena said she was trying to stick up for herself. >> for me to say, thief and for th him to take a game, it made me feel like it was a sexist remark. he's never took a game from man because they said thief. it blows my mind. this is outrageous. it's an example for the next person that has emotions and want to express themselves and want to be a strong women and going to be allowed to do that because of today. maybe it didn't work out for me but it will work out for the next person. >> reporter: tennis legend billie jean king shoher support. she tweeted when a woman is emotional she's his tier cal an penalized for it. . many many have said they have said much wors

serena does have a history at the u.s. open of losing it on ash stadium. >> you said the final will be remembered for, quote, an archaic tennis rule that eventually led to an abuse of power. so what was the archaic nature of this rule? what was your beef with what happened there? >> my beef is i believe in coaching anyway, just have it out there. you can coach from the box. chris everett feels the same way. they do it all the time. all the bosses yelling and signalling. make it honest, have integrity and let it go. i don't like children watching it and thinking someone is cheating. i don't like it. that's the first thing i would have done. i believe in coaching. we do it in team tennis. >> actually every other sport from the sidelines, right? >> another thing that is so bad in tennis is that the umpire does not communicate to the fans what is going on. in the nfl they stop, they turn on the mic, the referee says so and so made a penalty. these are the things we need to do in tennis. we need to get in the 21st century. >> l

howie: serena's meltdown was painful to watch. but the commentators whacking her should take a look at oh so sensitive umpire who allowed the situation to keep escalating. susan: he let it get out of control. he could have taken the insults the way has from other male players. same refs. this was a different standard. sally jenkins said the issue for her is she felt the umpire was not going to let a woman talk to him that way. did he feel i am not going to let a woman wave a finger at me for a serious penalty i wouldn't have given to a male player. howie: . she said he abused his authority over a tone of voice. male players have sworn and yelled at the top of their lungs and were never penalized the way serena was. susan: she played a role in this. she smashed her racket. she waved a finger at the umpire. she appeared threatening. she has a habit of throwing tantrums and threatening line people in the past. howie: a tweet from billy jean king. when a woman is emotional she is hysterical. but when a man is emotional he's outspoken.

if you were a serena fan before this, then you'rejust if you were a serena fan before this, then you're just defending her to the end. clearly all the alphabet soup of organisations in tennis are doing this to the detriment of her opponent, and throwing the umpire under the bus and everything. it's sad...i under the bus and everything. it's sad... i don't know how productive that is. but if you did not like serena before, and if you remember the incident in 2009 at the us open, which was worse than this one, then it justifies everything which was worse than this one, then itjustifies everything you think you know about her and you just go in the opposite direction. she's a lwa ys in the opposite direction. she's always been a polarising figure, a lot of it unfair, but right now it's just exacerbating that gap between the two sides. if you've got kids watching this, and you're a family person and you wa nt and you're a family person and you want your kids to grow up playing tennis, what sort of view does this put across? that's kind of the thing, isn't it? we have to remember too that wh

would serena do it again? our best clue is what she said afterwards. >> the fact that i have to go through this is just an example for the next person that has emotions and that want to express themselves, and they want to be a strong woman. and they're going to be allowed to do that because of today. maybe it didn't work out for me, but it's going to work out for the next person. >> now, she got a lot of applause for that among the press by the way in that room. i bring up the women in my life because i've heard this from a lot of them. and the question becomes, will other women look at this and see a point of empowerment or a cautionary tale? when i was thinking about this, i was torn. it's not like ramos just came after williams for no reason. but then i remembered something had happened earlier in the tournament. do you remember the woman who did something that men do all the time? her name is elise cor anyway, and she changed her shirt on the court. the heat rawas reluncdunk lus i tournament. she was give

her opponent, serena williams, had a huge row with the umpire. the 23 times grand slam champion was warned for smashing her racket, docked a point for a coaching violation, and then docked a game for calling the umpire a thief. patrick geary has the details. you owe me an apology. you owe me an apology! i have never cheated in my life. i have a daughter, i stand up for what is right for her. this was not the story tennis wanted or expected. serena williams furious at being warned for receiving coaching, then penalised again for verbal abuse of the umpire. all this in a match she'd hoped would take her to grand slam 24. it cruelly overshadowed a sensational victory for 20—year—old naomi 0saka, playing in a final she had only dreamed of and outclassing a player she idolised as a girl. serena williams' journey back from childbirth and life—threatening blood clots just a year ago is remarkable in itself, but when this was interpreted as coaching, her fury grew through the second set. you stole a point from me. you're a thief, too. the escalatin

the tennis world doesn't deserve serena williams. every time she steps on the court, her body is an act of dissent. because of that, her black womanhood is something more powerful. when it comes to gender equality it's more important than winning another grand slam at this point. she had to beg to play tennis. that's not what millions of people should have to experience, but, again, it's an implicit bias being used against serena williams and it's racism that's very clear. >> who's going to win out here? >> serena's going to win out, obviously. the public is behind her. i think that tennis has to realize that they need serena more than she needs the sport, frankly, and she is as tyler said is much bigger than tennis tennis is. she comes out the winner here absolutely. we have to mention naomi osaka because she was actually the winner as well. >> the first japanese player to ever wayne grand slam. a lot of winners as well, but we have one controversy that we're talking about today. thank you both. great conversation and we'll be right

we have to talk about serena williams. and first, i do not want to take away from naomi osaka's win. she came to play and win, she did, deservedly. but what happened this weekend is bigger than tennis. this is about you and about me and about women at the workplace. tennis great, billie jean king, who championed gender equality when he was on the court acknowledged the what the male umpire did, was to quote her, an abuse of power. and we could go line by line on the coaching from the stands, the broken racquet, serena calling the umpire a thief. we could discuss sportsmanship in tennis. i can't pretend to know what it's like to be on the court when a u.s. open title is at stake, with millions of people watching. serena williams carrying the weight of women, black women, young girls, on her shoulders. the point i wanted to make today is, men have behaved like this for years on the court. and they haven't been treated like this. just look at history. andre agassi spit at an umpire in 1990, no game penalty. in 2009, roger fed

open finalering both serena williams and naomi osaka offer lessons. what are they? >> from serena's point of view, the lesson was how she turned things around during the awards ceremony. it was devolving. i was there. i had been to a lot of u.s. open finals. the loudness of the booing, the crowd was really, really turned against the umpire. and by turning against the umpire, kind of looked like they were turning against osaka. serena williams felt that during the podium ceremony, and kind of took over, said everybody, let's stop booing. let's have a nice moment and kind of helped the fans appreciate what osaka did. and the lesson for osaka is she's really good. she's really good and she's the future of american tennis and she deserved to win the match. >> we have seen so many of serena's male counterparts, andy roddick, james blake tweeted, i will admit i have said worse and not gotten penalized. people point to rafa nadal having interactions with the same ump. and then novak djokovic said this. let's listen. >> maybe the chair umpire should not have pushed serena t
