I'm going to say something here, and I don't care who it offends. I'm not black, but tennis and golf are the last two sports that have their racist ways about them. Why? Because they're both country club sports for one thing. Black people Don't really have access to tennis courts and golf courses, but white people do, and for the longest time white players were on the top in those sports until tiger woods, and the Williams sisters came along and ended that white reign, golf has pretty much stopped the racism, but in tennis it will show its ugly face every now and then, and let's be honest we all know why that ref was missing calls that would have benefited the black player, it's not just the serves, coco had to tell ths ref that laura wasn't allowed to sit in-between sets. Just complete disregard for the rules.
How is this person you replied to racist? It was quite obvious that the German opponent was cheating. In both cases of sitting between sets and the referee not addressing that matter. And the German opponent was taking too long to return to the serving line when Coco was prepared to serve. Just admit you hate black Americans and leave it at that. I fully understand your hate. Tonight, before I go to bed, I will light a candle and burn some incense in your honor. I will sing a hymn and pray deeply for your misbegotten soul. Have a nice day.@@fatherson5907
Spot on. She’s not speeding through points, so it’s absolute on the receiver to be ready for the serve. The chair ump should have been on this far sooner and her facial expression suggests she knows it.
that's a rule, but the one that a player has to play at a server's "reasonable" pace is just etiquette. It's not a hard and fast rule, and is very subjective.@@seanmccartney5177
Willfully creating a disadvantage for someone to hinder their success, is how modern discrimination works. Coco’s experience is a great example of this type nuanced discrimination.
Umpire is being paid to do their job that they were refusing to do and should be upholding the rules. Of course the cheater weaponized her tears and tried to play victim so they didn’t get as much backlash. If the umpire was doing their job the cheater would’ve been getting more backlash.
This happens all the time in black America. In and outside the sports arena. This is the world of black Americans in this white supremacist society we call America. You have a nice day.
The fact that her opponent says nothing at all and never even tried to correct the umpire clearly states that both of them are in cahoots...shame on them...
Rich or poor, black is black. Even Oprah with all of her money, still have her share of negative racial experiences in this world. But, with money and riches it's much easier to deal with everything.
Lol wut... time violations are like the most common disputes in tennis, especially since the shot clock has been introduced. Are you just saying racism because Coco happens to be black? I wonder how she feels being objectified based on her race like that
@@user-gu1un7pb7k i mean, it does look like a white player got preferential treatment, i'm sure that upset her much more than her being what you consider to be "objectified". how exactly is it objectification to NOTICE when there is a discrepancy in treatment?
@@sebcw1204 You obviously don't watch tennis. Time wasting is ambiguous for umpires and it's hard to tell if the player is doing it deliberately or if it's just their routine. That's why there are always these types of arguments in tennis among so many players, regardless of their race lmao Also I love how you can apparently read Coco's mind "i'm sure that upset her much more" because Laura is white. Stop projecting, babe.
Actually, I think you may be right about human umpires, I think the umpire was unfair and biased against Coco just because Coco used several racial slurs to describe her opponent.
@@leahs.1480 Not finding any "racist slurs" by Coco (her exact words pasted at the end of my post) - if I am missing something, could you backup your assertion by clarifying? Coco's exact words: “She’s never ready when I’m serving, she went over to talk like four times, you only gave her a time violation once, how is this fair? No, you’re calling the score after the point is over, it’s not like we’re playing long points. You’re calling the score like six seconds after the point is over!”
If you know anything about the electoral college and gerrymandering, yes Republicans already have a huge and extreme advantage from the get-go, thats why more than 8million more voters voted for Democrats and still was a close race of 40k voters in swingstates, the liberal majority has to be overwhelming to beat the conservative minority due to ancient undemocratic rules.
@@dewaldt8104 Except only Democrats have proposed legislation to institute non-partisan district redrawings and some blue states in fact have already instituted non-partisan districting, that is not the case in Republican states, thats why conservatives win despite being a minority of a minority, if there were fair districts, Democrats would have permanent control of the house and senate.
@@vanessamaldonado5877 can you give an example? Also the reason why liberals lose is because they are crazy. Majority of Americans aren't interested in the stuff liberals promote, yet liberals keep promoting them and when they lose they cry cheat.
How did they have everything stacked in their favor? Liberals control every institution in the country including the media and big tech. Republicans have everything stacked against them.
You notice Coco cheating. That's strange. Nobody else in the world saw Coco cheat. Or is it you hate black Americans. Hey! Just admit you hate black Americans and leave it at that. I fully understand your hate. Tonight, before I go to bed. I will light a candle and burn some incense in your honor. I will sing a hymn and pray deeply for your misbegotten soul. You have a nice day.
@@secondchannel1523 How can you say none of the two when watching this match and the opponent clearly violated the time clock multiple times and umpire said nothing.
what's racist is the media lifting up one player's accomplishments over the accomplishments of other American players simply because of the player's race. There are plenty of other more accomplished American players people should know about@@marcusgraham5084
I don't know any other sport where the women do less work ( win 2 of possible 3 sets) and demand equal pay as the men who must win 3 of possible 5 sets. Absolutely criminal fools who permit this. Equal pay means equal work means equal play. There's no equality until this happens.
@@ronmastrio2798 Well I think they want equal pay across all tournaments, not necessarily just slams. But I don't think the quality of women's tennis really justifies equal pay, let alone the reduced crowd turnout. The WTA are currently having to dig out of their own pockets to give equal pay to their players because the tournaments don't do it as the ticket sales don't justify it. It's a bit insane really, especially when you consider the players winning these tournaments are already very wealthy compared to the lower ranked players. Why the WTA isn't spending money on those who need it is beyond me.
@user-gu1un7pb7k Exactly!! A similar situation is with the WNBA. In any case, big kids playing ball games ⚾️ 🏈 🏀 ⚽️ getting millions upon millions of dollars per year isn't right either. When honest, hardworking grown men are risking their lives every single day performing highly dangerous jobs like tree work, high voltage electric work, building our bridges, buildings, bridges, highways, railways and driving bus loads of kids back and forth etc. and barely making enough money to survive.
Tbf, Coco is a bit rash. She started celebrating early in her doubles, thinking they'd won, even though there were still games left to be played. And the umpire had already given her opponent a warning in this match. I wonder how much time Coco allowed between the warning and her outburst??
About 30 mins into the match there was a concern that Sigmund was having a medical episode, and the umpire gave her some leeway after a play since a doctor was evaluating her. She was deemed healthy enough to continue. But when it come to the unfairness, I think Coco Gauff did that to herself when she said to the umpire a little later in the game. "Ya’ll must be really afraid of me if you only let me play against a broken-down white B*****." Let just say thing when downhill from there. The US open actually posted the entire match on their RU-vid page if you want to go take a look for yourself.
It must bother you so much that a black woman won, Sigmund medical episode If true, does not equal all the rules she broke. Get away with your short story,
@@PatriciaPageMosaicArtsCrafts I guess you don’t understand so let me make my explanation even shorter, just because Gauff was being racist doesn’t mean the umpire should let her opponent get away with breaking the rules.
I watched the match. Siegemund’s gamesmanship was poor and the crowd let her have it. I was glad she cried in the press conference. She is no victim. Imagine the ref let’s you get away with cheating multiple times and you think you’re the victim 😂😂😂
