went to the finish with a flourish there and didn’t she just do so very well to handle a moment when 5-3 down in the opening set of this one. No love loss between these two. No, I don’t have to do anything. [Applause] One thing you know for sure, Tisan’s ain’t for backing down. Not at all. You can see that emotion coming out of Taylor there. The entire court on court 11. Taylor egging it on. You love to see that competitive fight. All she’s been through. Taylor, congratulations. Fiery match start to finish. We’ll get to it all. Can you fill us in on the conversation you were having with Elena out there? Yeah, I mean, you know, it’s competition. People get upset when they lose. And you can’t. Some people say bad things. She told me, “I have no class. I have no education.” And to see what happens when we get outside the US. So, I’m looking forward to it. I mean, I beat her in Canada, outside the US. I beat her in New York, outside the US. So, let’s see what else she has to say.

  1. Did she just say I beat her in Canada outside the U.S I beat her in New York outside the U.S 😂

  2. How do you make a post that you know millions of people will see and not use spellchecker? To me this is inconceivable.

  3. This is the moment when tennis "jumped the shark".tennis will now digress into ghetto classless behaviors by black priviledge.

  4. Not sure what they r talking about but WHY DOES JELENA HAVE TO TALK DOWN TO TAYLOR THE ENTIRE TIME WITH HER FINGER POINTING…

  5. No class no etiquette. Not education. You won and that's awesome. Quit bringing up the social injustices you think everyone has. Enjoy the Win

  6. New York is outside of the U.S.. What kind of education…😂 who even cares about this? Every sport has unwritten traditions/ rules. I say respect the game. You're not bigger than the game. On the other hand, take your loss like a professional and address such matters privately.

  7. Again … this is getting tooo old .. myanmar cambodian ethnic cleansing these dont scream loud like this victim

  8. People need to stop bringing education into the argument. Being educated does not equate to being smart. An educated person knows the hiking trail is 10 miles long. A smart person knows to bring enough water for the hike.

  9. “Referee, referee, on the chair, who on the court is the fairest of all?”
    “You, my loser, are fair; it is true; but Chocolate Brown is a thousand times “fairer” than you.

  10. Should’ve been suspended immediately for unsportsmanlike conduct, threats, and lack of integrity.

  11. Its a shame that depending on the color of your skin the media always makes it look like you started it, just like that sanders boy that boy started it but they inly showed sanders hitting at first. Im so glad she didnt fall into the trap.

  12. The athlete Taylor discriminated against Asians and should be expelled from the International Tennis Federation.🤮
