Serena's Meltdown

Few will ever forget the latest US Open tantrum thrown by none other than Serena Williams herself. Her opponent Kim Clijsters put up a very tough and unexpected fight that Williams just could not beat. Clijsters won the first set 6-4 and was up 6-5 in the second set, which is when it all started. Williams was serving to stay in the match at 30-30, her first serve was clearly out which gave Clijsters a look at a second serve. The second serve landed in, but then two deadly words came from one of the linesman's mouth, "FOOT FAULT!" You could see the fury building, knowing that she had just given Clijsters a match point. Then she snapped and literally the beast was unleashed. She walked over to the linesmen and said something that caused her to lose another point, which happened to be the match point. Clijsters had won, advancing her to the finals. It's unclear what was said but it is thought that she told the linesmen "I WOULD KILL YOU!" Serena obviously strongly denied the accusations, however her plea didn't matter, she still lost. Now I don't know if you've ever seen the monster known as Serena Williams. At 5"9', with thigh muscles the size of bowling balls, and guns barely legal in the United States, she dominates any competition on the court, except when she foot faults. That poor little linesmen stood no chance at the end of Williams' raquet.
