According to Grand Slam administrator Bill Babcock, Serena Williams was fined a record $82,500 for her U.S. Open tirade and could be suspended from that tournament if she has another "major offense" in the next two years. She faces a "probationary period" at tennis' four major championships in 2010 and 2011. If she has another "major offense" at a Grand Slam tournament in that time, the fine would increase to $175,000 and she would be barred from the following U.S. Open.
Damn! I guess next time she'll think twice before going off. Do you think this is fair or is the fine a little to harsh?
