Yeah you're right Rebecca Serena should've been more civil, but I understand where she was coming from when she lost it. She's human, she was down knowing she was possibly going to lose the match and a line judge makes a questionable call like a foot fault. Go back and watch the game again only this time check out her opponent Kim Clijster's serving in front of the same line judge and where the line judge is looking every time. Then watch the same line judge and where she's looking when Serena's serves.
Then you'll understand why Serena acted the way she did, true, she reacted inappropriately but a foot fault call?

Serena and Incivility

It still stuns me when people of great privilege and position choose to behave like spoiled children. You’ve seen it a million times as have I – the boss going out of his way to humiliate an employee with a public criticism; the teacher who purposely degrades a little kid in class; the politician who arrogantly dismisses the opinions of his dedicated staff and the very people he is supposed to represent.
