Serena Williams is a great tennis player. She's also got a tremendous ego and entitlement problem. She was losing the match, then lost her temper and made a jerk of herself. Then the crowd and announcer at the awards ceremony followed up by being jerks towards the twenty-year-old player who just beat her tennis idol in the U.S. Open final.
All three principals (Williams, Osaka, and the umpire) are "non-white." I don't know about the crowd. Maybe New Yorkers are just rude? That's what we always thought when I was growing up in the intermountain West.
I've heard that about New Yorkers. Funny thing is, my mom was born in New York City and all of her family stayed there. Her first husband was killed in the war so sometime in the mid 40's, she left New York City with her daughter to take a job in Billings, Montana. She never went back to NYC except to visit, she and my dad, who met out there, LOVED Montana and neither one would have come to Missouri at all except for that fact that I had just been born and my old man suddenly needed more money than the Big Sky Country could provide. But all the New Yorkers I've ever met in my life have been perfectly wonderful people.
I've met some very nice New York City people myself, Chris. But taken as a whole, not the individual exceptions, they've got a reputation for being brash, pushy, and loud-mouthed. This is part of why so many people dislike Trump. He's an arrogant real estate developer from Queens, which the "upscale" crowd considers low-class. Who was in the stands at the US Open? Not poor New Yorkers, that's for sure.
