Is it just me? Or did many other viewers find it pathetic? I’m talking about the sight of **Serena Williams bursting** into tears when asked about her defeat in the Australian Open semi-finals. Ms Williams is a 40-year-old professional tennis player, surely old enough to know that “you win some you lose some.” I for one do not expect a grown sportswoman to cry like a 14-year-old schoolgirl whose puppy has been run over.

Google says Williams also burst into tears in 2019 when withdrawing injured from a match in Canada. For crying out loud, why can’t she behave like an adult when things go wrong? That is to say, shrug and carry on.

I have three adult daughters, none of whom bursts into tears when facing a setback. Each sets about putting things right. Or if that can’t be done, picking herself up and getting on with life. None of them is a millionairess like Serena Williams, so perhaps there are different rules for obscenely rich ladies.

According to Wikipedia, Williams is ranked the 11th singles tennis player in the world. That means, I suppose, that she has been defeated by ten other women. Did she burst into tears each and every time? I suppose there is a way of finding out but who could be bothered?
