Tennis icon Billie Jean King, the feminist hero who beat an aging Bobby Riggs in the 1973 “Battle of the Sexes” matchup, believes Serena Williams throwing an unsportsmanlike temper tantrum on the tennis court was in revolt to the patriarchy’s “abuse of power.”
Over the weekend, Serena Williams acted like a spoiled toddler during the US 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 smashed her tennis racket into the ground.
