Serena Williams: “If I do the Zverev thing, I’d be in jail”

Few days ago, Alexander Zverev starred in one of the dirtiest moments of recent times. The German, just after finishing the doubles match with Marcelo Melo, went to the chair umpire and hit his ladder several times.

After the world reprimand and the sanction of the ATP, a new voice has joined the protest. Serena Williams, winner of 23 Grand Slams, has expressed her disagreement with the act of the German, although the focus of his criticism has gone further.

“Of course there is a double standard. Probably, if what he did was done by me, I would be in jail. I’m not kidding, far from it. When you see this kind of thing on the circuit, it’s normal for you to wonder what It would have happened if I had done it”told journalist Christiane Amanpuor, from the CNN.
