The 2009 U.S. Open seemed to be business as usual with the elites of the sport planning to meet in the finals bracket however, Venus' early elimination left us counting the days until Serena would claim her next championship. However we were left shocked at a profanity filled tirade directed towards a tournament judge which seemed to come out of nowhere. Now there has been quite the uproar among tennis fans and sports fans in general. I must agree that in a professional arena this behavior is unacceptable and Serena knows this. She is a role model for many young women in the world and African Americans in general but while I say this we all must remember that Serena is from Compton, CA. No matter how where you put someone, if they are pushed hard enough, their roots will come out. That's all that was, her facade weakened for whatever reason and she let her realness come out. You can't get mad at that. So all in all it was a mistake on her part but lets not give her such a hard time, she's just real and that must be respected.
