Here is Roger Federer arguing with the referee earlier this year - interestingly, accusing him of stealing Roger's challenge, much as Serena accused Ramos of stealing a point.
See any difference in the way they handled it?

She reminded me of Donald Trump in terms of the level of self-congratulatory delusion. Just a complete embarrassment of a human being. Of course the umpire was wrong, but to carry on like a petulant child about it and ruin a final - and particularly to wreck such a huge moment for Osaka - is just the sort of egotism you might be able to forgive if she were a 21 year old.
