Mr Richard Williams instilled a mental toughness in his daughters that I took for granted before. Naomi needs to take a break from competing. Unless it's out of bounds racist, sexual, or vulgar taunting, fans booing and heckling are a part of spectator sports. She's too fragile right now to be competing.
It’s really not a part of golf and tennis. They have people removed for it all the time. Not remotely comparable to other sports.

Her beating Serena was a lot like Larry Holmes beating Ali, De La Hoya beating Chavez or Marciano beating Joe Louis. What was supposed to be her coronation as the next superstar of the sport turned into her becoming the biggest villain for beating everyone's idol. Whereas Marciano and Holmes were able to take that negative publicity on the chin, Osaka can't seem to move past the criticism. She NEEDS to be cheered and liked, and anything other than that, even minor heckling like this, is like rejection to her.

Above the fray.
They booed Serena really in Jan 2003 in France in the French Open Finals when she was on that streak and playing against that dyke cheater Justine Henin...something was close to the line, Serena complained about that, they booed her like she was a terrorist. She had just did unofficial grand slam..won all 4 major opens back to back going into another year..but she's black, strong, got ass, got endorsement deals, has punked out Hingis/Henin/Kournikova all the time...so that elicits that TRUE reaction from a France.
The country was on some French *Freedom fries propaganda over France not cosigning the invasion of Iraq.

She was asked about it, and appeared to mock French people.
Serena's war jibe galls French

French people got offended, and booed her at events for a year.

*freedom fries was a real thing, WMDs in Iraq were not a real thing

This!

If I was Osaka, I'd be upset too. As an audience member, you don't heckle during tennis as they'll usually throw your ass out accordingly....this ain't no damn NBA

You niccas are weirdos :scust:

she's going threw something, she's already a millionaire might be best to take a step back. Get your mental health in order and then go back.


Yeah she might be a better coach than a player if random fans can rankle her like that.

Serena and Venus went through waaaaaay worse.

That Gymnast chick had the same issues but it seemed to be a p*ssy problem she ran back home got piped out a married and she's all smiles.

This chick has a Boyfriend so that's not the issue.
