"I hope you fucking got that."

"Solly. No speaky Engrish."

Perhaps more shocking was Federer's outburst...

“I don’t give a s*** what he said. Don’t f***ing tell me the rules.”

Love it.

What the Fed said to the umpire, from his chair, was, "Do you have any rules in there? ... Don't tell me to be quiet, okay? When I want to talk I'll talk, all right ... I don't give a shit what he said, okay?"

I don't think Rog even knows the "f" word.

Further research reveals that Fed did indeed drop the F-bomb a couple of times, while those of us who were watching the action live had gone on an ad break.

I'll let you have my apology on Thursday when I've cleared it with my lawyers!

Serena Williams is the big winner in all this. Now Federer's used obscenities, the pressure will be on the tennis authorities to deal with the both of them the same. Watch the race card being played for all its worth.

never mind the gender card ...

Strangely I have more respect for the Fed now. Bloody hell - he's human after all!

Forget the Race Card and the Woman Card. Now it's the Murdered Sister Card.

It's a black day for tennis. And as for the Williams episode, words fail me.

I've just heard on the radio that Roger was fined US$1,500 for using the 'f' word - a drop in the ocean by Roger's standard. He should've used a few more than if that word is so cheap!

No wonder you see the kids behave like jerks in the Hong Kong Junior Leagues.

Got to wonder what these pampered pros have to do to get suspended.

Not a suspension, but a ban suspended for two years, has been announced for Serena by the US Open grand slam committee. Plus, a request to hand over some of her small change.
