Ruling on Serena’s US Open tirade expected soon

By ANDREW DAMPF, AP Sports Writer Nov 6, 10:34 am EST

REGGIO CALABRIA, Italy (AP)—A ruling on Serena Williams’ U.S. Open tirade is expected in the next two weeks.

“It’s in the hands of the Grand Slam administrator, who I believe has now completed his investigation and will be making a ruling within the next two weeks,” United States Tennis Association President Lucy Garvin told The Associated Press on Friday. “That’s what we have been told—that Serena would hear, we would hear.”

The Grand Slam administrator is Bill Babcock.

Williams was fined $10,000 after her profanity-laced outburst at a lineswoman during her semifinal loss to Kim Clijsters in September, and she could face a more severe penalty in the coming weeks.

“We really have not gone down that path of making a judgment as to what would be right or wrong at this point,” Garvin said. “She was defaulted out of the singles and she has apologized sincerely. So we’ll just have to see what the Grand Slam administrator comes to the Grand Slam committee chairs with. I think Serena is very anxious to hear.”

Speaking before the Fed Cup final between the United States and Italy that starts Saturday, Garvin said she has discussed Andre Agassi’s recent drug revelations with some board members, but that “nothing official” has been decided.

“It definitely was surprising to all of us,” Garvin said. “Andre is a very open individual now—he’s older, he’s matured, he’s been a wonderful ambassador the sport. I’m not sure of his reasoning as to why he felt he wanted to disclose that, but that’s his personal business and he chose to do it.”

In his book “Open,” which goes on sale Monday, the eight-time Grand Slam champion said he used crystal meth in 1997 and failed a drug test—a result he says was thrown out after he lied by saying he unwittingly took the substance.

“Back in that time we didn’t have the anti-doping set up like the ITF has it setup now,” Garvin said.

Serena and Venus Williams opted not to play the Fed Cup final after meeting in the championship match of the season-ending WTA Tour championships last weekend. Garvin suggested the schedule is too tough on the top players.

“It is (upsetting), and this is something that has happened in Davis Cup also,” she said. “After Wimbledon we played a Davis Cup match and Andy (Roddick) was not able to play. But we have to understand that. The schedules are very taxing. At all times we should be looking at the schedule and seeing if we can improve it, and talking with the ITF as to what could be done to make it easier for the players.”

Without the Williams sisters, 18-year-old Melanie Oudin—the surprise U.S. Open quarterfinalist—is the top singles player for the Americans this weekend.

Oudin was asked about Williams’ outburst.

“I’m a player as well and when you’re on the court playing, emotions are going crazy and anything can happen,” Oudin said. “I have no idea how she was feeling that day, but I heard she apologized and I think that was definitely the right thing to do.”

    Hi all, Serena`s outburst was on a tennis court, a grandslam Tennis champion, at the semi- finals:
    Sometimes the words of protest are the only words we can speak clearly in the face of complex forces
    ,evil woven into the fabric of our lives.
    the beginning of finding a new path is speaking the truth, her apology in itself was the final judgement
    her punishment should be based on her apology and not on her action. she has already paid
    $10 000, and that was already enough. Tennis is Serena and Serena is Tennis.

    The ruling isn't so much about Serena as simply "ON-COURT BEHAVIOR" that will apply to every player, no matter their ranking. Tennis has to get itself together. Serena paid a fine, lost two critical points as the rules dictated. That is that. Enough.

    There is definitly something that stinks in the tennis world and the proof came straight from the USTA president Lucy Garvin in this article. In it you can plainly see she is biased. She states that the schedule is too tough on the top players. Ok so if your not in the say top 20 she does not care what so ever. She should care if you #1 or #1021. So by her standards anybody high ranked should be pampered and get it easy with less tornaments and the rest she could care less if they play or not. She should think before she speaks or if it isa truely what she thinks than she should resign or be fired!

    I love it RTS more proof. Yep me saying the schools suck is portraying the hood in such a negative way lol. So it is a secret now about the education in inner city schools? In order to recieve the type of education you say you recieved you did not go to some poorly funded school that needed new text books. You said you publsihed work retard so tell me where you got the information and access to do something like that. They don't provide kids in inner city schools with the type of information to publish writing. This is why people like Andre builds schools to help these kinds of kids retard. Get them ready for college and teach them how to succeed. See, you know nothing. The schools are unequal idiot that is why there is an achievement gap between inner city school kids and Suburban school kids. You know nothing off this becuase you are not from no d**n hood.

    Paco: View Point/Right To Speak/Done For Now/Done No More/Just Me/Ms. Loony Toons has a point: while she's not from a "ghetto," she did grow up very, very poor in Hog Holler. She's grew up in the Granny Clampett Memorial Trailer Park and Hog Knuckle Processing Plant. She heard gunshots at night -- shotguns from drunk hillbillies fighting over roadkill possums for midnight snacks. Her school -- The Jethro Bodine Middle School for the Middle Aged, where she went for 37 years, is a rat-infested (which is good, because hillbillies eat rats for breakfast - that's Hog Holler's "Hot Breakfast Program) and filled with teachers which are stupider than the stupid hillbilly students. Since she's a child of incest, her home life wasn't the best (fellating her dad, swallowing her mom's juices, being impregnated by her daddy/brother and her brother/nephew).

    So, please give her a break...neck, back or ankle...your choice...

    And remember...she'll ALWAYS BE known here as the racist, bigoted, KKK/Nazi Party dirty whore who made the following comments:

    "Get a frigging like you little black moron from hell."

    "Got to run..I have real matters to take care of and not to stay on a blog responding to an inane black fool who uses the same catch phrases over and over

    "You will always be a gay black queen"

    "who did not want you ugly cheetos eating stank breath, nappy little, big lips face"

    "you all do..but oppressed primates can't help themselves"

    "Can't wait til the little Sambo whines again."

    "Now little biatches..gotta run and see a movie...until next time...the chocolate's melting..off your face.
    or is that sh@t."

    Yeah...she's a racist, poor, trailer trash hillbilly idiot. What a surprise! :-)

    122 How shameful that you think black and Hispanic kid grow up into hoodlums and illiterates like yourself. And even more stereotypical that you could portray people in the ghetto in such a negative way. Paco, you have no idea who or what people have gone through. This is a tennis blog. Get a grip. Who do you actually know or met on here? I bet there is not one person unless they lived close enough for you to travel. Nightthing indicates he is a male from Philly. Well that is what I went by. I don't live too far from Philly. What do I care about him now knowing he lives in la la land. And the funny thing is that you both are gay but can't come out and admit it. I your number a maricon in the hood. lol

    Yeah well I am done posting to RTS because he/ she is retarded. It is always easy to tell when someone is not who they say they are. You could never lie to somebody and tell them you are from the hood and everything about you says something different. There is always certain requirments to fit in with each class and when you are missing ALL of them then it is obvious you are faking. Anyway, Nightwing glad to see you are doing well. I wil leave you to take out the trash, see ya.

    There you go lying again. You do not have the personality to have survived in had went through all that. You thought that Serena should of had legal action taken against her. Anybody who has been through what you claim would not be bent out of shape over some chick getting cussed out. RTS you correct peoples grammar, get real. NOBODY corrects grammar in the hodd dumb a**. You make jokes calling people ghetto and no one would make fun of a place from which they are from. You are a fake just like your thousand screennames. Shut up man you know you the type to press charges. You are not street or hood so let it go. Kids in your school got shot point blank lol ok. You always brag about your good education and writing skills. You talk about how you published writing and all that bull s**t. So when did you have time to get so educated because everybody knows the school systems are garbage in the hood. Where did you get the money for college and do not say a tennis scholarship because most Black highschools do not have a tennis team because Black people don't play tennis. That backround you gave of yourself months ago requires someone to have to have been in an at least a middle class enviornment. You claim you met Chris Evert. You must of had no friends because the Black kids you supposedly grew up around would of not had any of your interest. You go up to a Black person and ask them who Chris Evert is they gone look at you puzzled lol. Nobody plays tennis in the hood retard except the Williams sisters lol.

    118 Lakers suck this year. Artest thinks only about Artest. You need Gasol back desperately. Celtics did lose tonight but at 6-1 we are doing pretty well especially with Sheed and we have the most NBA Championships b!tch.. The Dodgers lost to the Phillies who got beat by the Yankees as I said. The Bruins and we are talking about football season not swimming etc. they suck also. My Gators are #1, my Celtics are #1 in their division, my Patriots are #1 in their divison so I would say bend over.

    I have no idea why you feel a need to best me all the time. Is it your size (huh huh) because you come across very inadequate. You will take any cheap shot to get back at me. Typical bottom queen behavior. Enjoy the rest of the night serving your man! (once you started to reveal more about yourself, you walked right into it) Checkmate little la la @#$%. I am an east coast New Englander. And you pass yourself off as if you are from Philly. How disingenuous!

    Paco, I am not impressed. My brother was caught in uzi fire in the ghetto with his best friend. He was killed. I forgot you are so stupid that you know nothing about New England. The worst cities on the east coast for violent gang crime is in New England. I had students killed point blank range in my high school. There are so many gangs in these cities that fighting over turf and product happens all the time. And just to make it clear, my in-law's father was taken out by the family, he is still part of the family. You have no idea who I am or what has happened to me. Try living in a rat/roach infested apt in the ghetto while gun fire and violence goes on every day. And then have you mom left to take care of you and your siblings without your dad who dies. We had nothing. So don't talk to me about living in the ghetto. I still live very much in a black neighborhood. We just had a pizza delivery guy shot maybe a stones throw from our complex. Violence exists everywhere and you learn to deal. We go through some of the worse neighborhoods every day. So what. You stand tall and you man it up. And it sounds from your blogs you are just a little punkass b!tch. Good night.

    You are so dumb RTS. Why are you so stupid, do you even know? You talk about Kim winning the last slam like it makes a difference which number it is. Wimbledon is the only slam that sticks out because it is the most prestigous slam and who won that? What has Clijsters done since the US Open except use her child as an excuse to not show up for work? At least Serena played the whole year. Clijsters only comes out for the slams. Clijsters nor Henin will be playing a full schedule next year. Listen to their interviews and read what they are saying. They both are just coming back for the slams as they stated. You really think Clijsters and Henin are going to play 20 tournaments next year? Clijsters already said she is not concerned with a ranking which is clue to the fact that she is not going to try to compete to be in the top 10 or no.1. They said nothing about playing full time next year. Henin even lied and said that she is not concerned about the French. Henin says she is focused on Wimbledon when we all know that should have been a silent goal because it is not gone happen. Get off Serena's blog because you posted your opinion already and you are not a fan so there is no point of you sticking around here tonight.

    Hey Nightwing it has been a while like you said. As you see this loser RTS running his mouth again. Now he claims he is from an area more dangerous then Compton. That personality he/she has could never make it in the hood. I swear someone would have really hurt him by now. Where I come from nobody gets in trouble for threats and even sometimes actions. My friends brother got murdered over some girl and the cops didn't even investigate. Some people are just too sensitive on this blog.

    And one more thing. I've decided to tell you. You know those DNY comments you wrote about. Guess what almost everything is true including the part about my brother in-law. And your comments mean nothing to me about racism especially when a person has grown up in a Ghetto, has a bi-racial brother, a sister who is not dating an african american male, who lives in a predominantly black neighborhood, who worked for black fashion designers, and whose own grandmother was best friends with Bobby Seal and his wife. My mom's best friend (you know the one who died a few years back from a terminal illness) had many black friends, oh yeah went to a black high school where several of my friends were black and Hispanic and lived and worked in New York and Miami two of the most ethnic and racially diversified cities in the country. Your comments mean sh!t. I never called Venus as Sambo. I made that reference to you. And you know what? I would stand by it. You are such a kiss ass utterly ridiculous clown who loves to stir things up. Well guess what so do I and my approach now is to be direct stick to the discussion of tennis unless assh!le like you try to challenge me otherwise. Oh, about the personalities or name changes...all in jest, let's just say as an actor/writer for 25 years it is easy to create characters not copy them like you. So NIGHTWING!!! Got to go and spend time with my spouse (hint, hint) who is a Kentucky Wildcat and is considered a Hillbilly. And if your smarmy mouth ever dare to speak unkindly to my spouse, you would learn a lesson or two what these beautiful people all about!

    You a lie like always. You grew up in areas far worse then Serena? First of all Compton is no joke. You once said you grew up in Ohio then you said something about New England your just full of s**t. The way you act and write shows us that you are not fron the ghetto. First of all who calls it the urban ghetto? You always are commenting on someone's grammar which people from the ghetto would not do. If you were from the ghetto then you would had not found Serena's actions that serious. People say way worse things to each other in the hood. You act too proper to have been from the ghetto. You try too hard RTS. You say Serena's behaviour over the last couple of years have been unacceptable but you keep refering to the one incident from this year for why you do not like her lol. Before this incident all you used to say was that she had no class and did not congratulate her competitors, remember that? If you from the ghetto then you would have to have known several people who have been murdered, people who have went to jail for murder. You would need to have heard gun shots about EVERY night like Serena did. You would of had to have been jacked before or know someone who has been jacked. You would of had to have been in several fights or witnessed several fights. Growing up in the hood gives you a totally different outlook on life. When you have talked to somebody on Sunday and then they were murdered on Monday then you don't think a line judge getting cussed out is the worse thing in the world. I have heard gunshots, been in fights, seen fights, had friends who got murdered, seen police beat up friends, threatened to be shot, had friends get shot and shot at etc. You are a fake and need to quit acting like you know something about that life. You were a sheltered lil punk who grew up to be a racist a** hole.

    Sybil, Sybil, SYBIL!

    You just couldn't leave me out of one of your posts, you pathetic stalking freak.

    I had actually thought you were over stalking me; I guess you just missed me publically abusing you, you masochistic mess in a dress...

    i agree; I'm know that not ALL hillbillies are KKK/Nazi Party members; I'm sure, however,that you, your inbred family and a few of your multiple personalities are DEFINITELY dirty, unwashed, uneducated, trailer trash hillbilly racist KKK scum.

    You may slither away and try to hide in your slime hole of a trailer, you may try to change your Yahoo name and your personalities to go undetected, but your previous posts here will ALWAYS show you to be the crazy, stupid and moronic diseased-ridden two-bit whore that your husband Festus married (shotgun ceremony...poor Festus!).

    Remember the quotes from your "Racist Greatest Hits," all posted here on Yahoo? Remember calling Venus Williams "Sambo?" Yeah...I see how you all of a sudden are a Venus "fan." You lying, innsane maggot. How about these gems you laid here like infested housefly eggs,waiting to hatch and spread filth and disease:

    Post 31 NightWing - Nice to be back. I've logged on several times over the last couple of nights to see what was new, but I saw not much had changed since last week. I did notice, though, that my name was being dragged about even though I had long since stepped out of the picture.

    I think I've said before that I like to post from time to time, hear what people have to say, pick up a discussion here and there. But it's difficult to have a conversation or debate with someone who is a liar, doesn't remember what (s)he writes; who writes horrible things and then accuses someone else of have having written them, and worse -- when unable to make an intelligent argument resorts to racial slurs, gay bashing, sexist rants and threat making.

    For instance, I read about you that:

    (719) Posted Tue Aug 25 10:19pm EDT
    "You should have listen to DNY and kept your thoughts in-check."

    But prior to that said about me:
    (561) Posted Mon Aug 24 12:01pm EDT
    "So maybe you are the one who should ignore!"

    Then long after I had dropped out of the conversation (or I guess intrusion into my conversation with someone else), he said about me (among other things):

    DNY- Leave your personal sob stories off a tennis blog..again use facebook bored housewife.

    But wouldn’t you know that I found this:

    (48) Posted Sat Aug 29 5:19am EDT --- "And I said my family is dead."

    (59) Posted Sat Aug 29 6:44am EDT --- "My mother died of a terminal lung illness."

    (709) Posted Tue Aug 25 5:31am EDT --- "My wife works a very demanding job in the healh care field and I have a life threatening disability. My writing may be dubious because I can barely see."

    (669) "I also would caution you to NOT SPEAK ANY FURTHER ABOUT MY WIFE. That is not fair-play."

    (673) Posted Tue Aug 25 3:46am EDT --- "I live very comfortably and MY WIFE IS DEDICATED TO HELPING THE SICK AND THE POOR (many of which are African American)."

    Sure sounds like a bunch of “personal sob stor(ies)” to me, having absolutely nothing to do with tennis. But what do I know? I have compassion, assuming these stories are even true, but I thought “sobs” weren't allowed. Or maybe it’s just my sob stories which aren't allowed since he’s the boss of the blog -- the "bully" of the "pulpit".

    Then says: (59) Posted Sat Aug 29 6:44am EDT --- “I DO NOT HAVE A HUSBAND OR WIFE. I WORK IN THE HEALTH CARE FIELD WITH MANY AFRICAN AMERICANS”

    "The Hillbilly comments affected me because someone I am close to was born in rural Appalachia....I AM A MALE AND I AM NOT MARRIED OR HAVE KIDS but I do have someone. Cabesh."
    (That’s “capiche?” not cabesh). That someone was supposed to be the wife that he doesn’t have. At least that’s what he said last week -- that his wife was from Appalachia..

    Anyway, which story is it? His wife works in the healthcare field, except he doesn’t have a wife or a husband but HE works in the healthcare field. Ooops, and let me not forget, with many African Americans many of whom are sick and poor. See, I’m all confused, guys.

    I just love these:

    "I GUARANTEE AFTER YOU REALIZED YOU PISSED OFF A RELATIVE OF ONE OF THE "5 ITALIAN FAMILIES" you may begin to think otherwise."

    (54) "You just never disrepect an east coast Italian family (they control half of the area)...You want to be enemies, girlfriend I got a lot tricks up my sleeve."

    (61) Posted by Sat Aug 29 7:01am EDT --- "There are 5 families that run things, one of which is my brother-law. You want to mess with me on that dickless wonder. Do you need someone to set you scare you straight...Also I do have an uncle working for the State Police. Do you think it is that difficult to find and confront you? (I thought he reported you, posted your address and knew your URL? What happened?)

    Well, as for the mention of the 5 "families", it should all be over soon because I’m sure they’re sending someone to whack him as we speak. Mafia rule #1 -- never talk about the family and he’s callin’ them out all over the place. And his poor uncle the state trooper, I’m sure his precinct and the FBI are planning that sting operation as we speak.

    This is funniest of all:

    (43) Posted Sat Aug 29 4:46am EDT --- "These blogs give us a forum to discuss tennis activity. They are not specifically designed to promote one player or discussion another player. We all have our favorites and not so favorites. THERE IS NO NEED FOR UGLINESS TO EXPRESS HOW ONE FEELS. LET'S ALL RESPECT THE OPINIONS OF OTHERS AND ENJOY BLOGGING ABOUT TENNIS EVENTS INCLUDING THE US OPEN."

    (460) Posted Sun Aug 23 1:27pm EDT --- "Diane..screw you hag...where does it says anything about their race in my blogs. If you are referring to ghetto b2tch comment, anyone can live in a ghetto. It is hilarious that is the only weak ass argument you can come up with about me or anyone who criticizes Serena or Venus's game playing. That's all it is and nothing more. You are the racist for interjecting race as an issue..typical angry woman."

    (59) Posted Sat Aug 29 6:44am EDT --- "You are b!tch and an even nastier one for talking about my mother."

    And there you have it folks, a prime example of a respectful exchange of ideas.

    Anyway, my night is over. Time to sign off. Catch you later. Counting down the days.

    ViewPoint/'Right To Speak/Done No More/Done For Now/Just Me/Ms. Loony Toons, remember how you tried to pass yourself off as Just Me, the mother of three children, and how Paco called you out fon your LIES? How Paco proved that you were Sybil, and how he made you admit it? Wow...if only you ony changed your filthy, poopy, pee stained and bloody panties as much as you change your Yahoo names and your multiple personalities...

    You lie, you're a hardcore racist scumbag, and a sloppy whore. Why Festus picked you OF ALL WOMEN to marry, I will never know...oh, wait...it was a shotgun wedding...

    Sybil, Sybil, Sybil...a stake in your heart or a silver bullet can't stop you, you ghoul...certainly, your latest case of scabies (you dirty, DIRTY girl!) can't stop you...

    Report Abuse

    It is amazing how this thread just totally deteriorated into the same discourse that has been causing enmity amongst men and wars since the beginning of time.

    These are characteristics that occur with repeated frequencyday after day,hour upon hour:

    1. The inability to separate opinion from fact
    2. The illogical explanation of opinions
    3. Hateful references
    4. Threats and obscenities
    5. Claims of intellectual superiority
    6. References to European physical traits being superior to Black AND vice versa
    7. Player worship as opposed to honor
    8. The inability to forgive
    9. The negative judgement of others
    10.Making predictions based upon wishful thinking
    11. Failure to respond to questions about posts when respectfully asked
    12.Comparing situations that are not related
    13. Uncontrolled anger

    All of these can be summed up in one basic human flaw...FALSE PRIDE...The belief that what I have is superior to what you have.

    The problem with false pride is that no one will admit it...it's always somebody else.

    Stay well my friends.
