REGGIO CALABRIA, Italy – A ruling on Serena Williams’ US Open tirade is expected in the next two weeks.
“It’s in the hands of the Grand Slam administrator, who I believe has now completed his investigation and will be making a ruling within the next two weeks,” United States Tennis Association President Lucy Garvin told The Associated Press on Friday. “That’s what we have been told that Serena would hear, we would hear.”
The Grand Slam administrator is Bill Babcock.
Williams was fined $10,000 after her profanity-laced, finger-pointing outburst at a lineswoman during her semifinal loss to Kim Clijsters in September, and she could face a much more severe penalty in the coming days. (AP)
