Serena Williams meltdown
 
I just love to see tennis players get upset and freak out.
Serena Williams usually contains herself quite well, it's normally her older sister that whines more often.

Here's Serena losing in the semi finals of the US Open (2009). She gets called on a foot-fault and proceeds to tell the line judge that she's going to shove this fucking ball right down her fucking throat.

Kim Clijsters won the match and advanced to the finals.

I think anyone who shows acts like this should be banned from the industry. Mostly the football and baseball idiots.

I don't completely disagree with you. Serena rarely loses her cool, though. This was exceptional for her.

This will haunt her and her sister for a long long time. Whether the official was right or wrong, no one should be threatening another human like that. Kiss endorsements goodbye

It never hurt John McEnroe, just made him an even more popular draw!

True! Johnny Mac was a pleasure to watch because he'd get upset so easily.
Some of those matches with Jimmy Connors (another bad boy) were unbelievable.
