Over the weekend, Serena Williams acted like a spoiled toddler during the U.S. Open when she openly screamed at the chair umpire Carlos Ramos for calling penalties she deemed unfair. After unsuccessfully demanding that the umpire issue her an "apology," Williams became so enraged with the matchup that she smacked her tennis racket into the ground.

Uh huh.  So Billie Jean is saying that if the chair umpire had been a female, Serena wouldn't have thrown an epic temper tantrum?  Yeah, I don't think so.

Serena has been even more abusive toward female umps, even threatening physical harm.

Absolutely.  Which is why it is even more ridiculous that Billie Jean and so many others are trying to make excuses for her.
