成人论坛 Minute: On claims of sexism in tennis
It was an explosive grand slam final between Serena Williams and Naomi Osaka on Sunday at the US Open. Serena Williams was fined for code violations, she got a penalty point and was docked a game for calling the umpire - Carlos Ramos - a "thief" and a "liar".
The American said it was "sexist" to have been penalised a game.
The chief executive of the Women's Tennis Association and the president of the United States Tennis Association - which organises the US Open - agree with her.
Our tennis correspondent, Russell Fuller, explains.
