2018 US Open Final: S. Williams vs. N. Osaka

[nehmeth]

It will be interesting to see what happens with the chair going forward.

 

[kskate2]

I don't think anything will happen Rob. Nothing happened w/ those other matches

 

[AnonymousFan]

Sucks since Osaka was two holds from winning anyways

 

[kskate2]

I agree. He just should have stayed out of it. Serena wasn't going to rally

 

[atttomole]

More endorsements in Japan for sure.

 

[Moxie]

I agree with you, AF and K.

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

Yeah that game penalty was what really made it ugly

 

[Federberg]

Serena does bring it on herself. She gives them the opportunity to do this shit

 

[Moxie]

He gave it to her because she called him a thief. To me, he should have shrugged that off and let the match play out.

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

But Serena will bounce back I’m sure. Would have been interesting to see how this would have played without the roof

 

[nehmeth]

The tournament umpire backed up the chair.

 

[kskate2]

So they're replaying the convo during the changeover.

 

[kskate2]

The tournament umpire is not going to overturn anything the chair says anyway

 

[Moxie]

How were they not going to, nehmeth?

 

[Federberg]

agreed

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

Yeah they would never go against one of their own

 

[Federberg]

whenever I see Serena in those sorts of moments, I ask myself what would Venus do?

 

[Moxie]

Somebody tell me any incident they've ever seen of the tournament director overruling the chair.

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

The Serena presser should be interesting

 

[kskate2]

whatever the chair says is law. I've never understand why the player asks for the referee to come out there anyway
