Serena Williams is the greatest female tennis player of all time - which is why her meltdown of loser glory in the 2018 US Open Championship is all the more hilarious. After getting humiliated in the first set 6-2 by 20-year-old Japanese thug Naomi Osaka, Serena received a Coaching Violation from chair umpire Carlos Ramos, a "Gold Badge" beast who is highly respected in the sport. Williams' coach even admitted to ESPN after the match the he was indeed coaching. Thus began Williams' epic tantrum, which would escalate into a second warning for smashing her racket, until finally she was docked a game for calling Ramos a "thief" to his face. True winner that she is, Senera Williams then demanded to speak to the referee and, when obliged, ranted incoherently about how all of this was somehow sexist.

She pulled a similar stunt when she was losing the 2009 US Open semi-finals.

Looks pretty clear he was coaching. Rules is rules.
