Serena Williams has been fined a total of 17,000 US dollars (approximately €14,700) for her offences during the US Open final. That put Williams 5-3 down in the second set and she went on to lose 6-2 6-4. Second time in this US Open and third time for Serena in a US Open Final. The remainder of the fine is made up of 4,000 USD for coaching and 3,000 USD for racket abuse. Two years later, during a final loss to Sam Stosur, Williams called umpire Eva Asderaki “a hater” and “unattractive inside” for calling a hindrance penalty against her and was fined.
