Well done Ash Barty on her women's double victory.....hopefully she can replicate that success on the singles arena.....as for Serena......great to see a ref coming down hard on these over paid prima donna tantrums....these role models have been throwing their toys for way too long without some form of dressing down....hitting them in their wallet doesn't obviously hurt.....

Bartys win in the doubles caps off what has been a very good tournament for the Aussies.

I watched the match and Chris Evert said Serena started coming into the net more after her coach gave instructions and she started winning more points after that. Can't believe those sticking up for her. If she was leading 1 set up and up a break in the second set she wouldn't have blown up like that. Sore loser and I hope the Homan Cup organisers don't invite her to compete in the tournament ever again but I sure hope they can get that Japanese girl. She will be a crowd favourite when she comes to Australia whatever tournaments she competes in.

I keep on thinking about that poor old runner’s up trophy from the Hopman Cup that williams threw in the change room rubbish bin, as someone mentioned here one time.

Can someone please tell me how Mark Knights cartoon is racist?

Simple.....she’s a black lady. Had she been white, it would have been a funny pic.

Or more so if the pic accentuated a nose, chin or ears perhaps 58?.......folk wouldn't bat an eyelid if Knights had drawn an accentuated pic of Donald Trumps ugly mug losing his rag.....u r spot on 58....

Read a comment and it sums things up perfectly. “You will find offence in anything if you look hard enough.”

Majority of people today feel the constant need to be offended by something or someone and feel like they have to be part of a revolution or off fighting the good fight all the time.

Well it isn't.
Couldn't believe the guy being interviewed on the radio this afternoon saying the cartoon was racist.
As far as I'm concerned,with Williams acting like a baby, the cartoon is fairly well spot on.
