In only her 3rd loss of 2015, Serena Williams lost to Roberta Vinci in a semi-final match in the U.S. Open at Arthur Ashe Stadium today.
After losing the first set to Serena 2-6, Vinci rallied to take the next 2 sets 6-4, 6-4.
Vinci lost to Serena in four previous meetings. The shocking loss ended Serena’s hopes of winning the elusive Grand Slam of tennis.
Serena previously won 3 Grand Slam titles in 2015: Australian Open, French Open and Wimbledon.
The only tennis player (male or female) to win all 4 Grand Slam titles in a single calendar year was Steffi Graf in 1988.

Awww win some loose some .. #LIFE …. there is always next time … bye again
Congratulations on making it so far – she has nothing to feel bad about – she did her best she gave it her all the better player won… nothing to be mad at here – I really wanted her to win though… actually I wanted Venus to win the other day but when she didn’t all my hopes rested with Serena… no worries though she on top of her game I don’t doubt she will accomplish the goal next time around…
It’s cool she still the best
Serena previously won 3 Grand Slam titles in 2015: Australian Open, French Open and Wimbledon…………
That’s OK Serena, you’re still the ultimate athlete and a world class champion.
You still the bestest Serena. Keep yo head up high!
Drake the reason, no?

LOLOL…you’re just like me. Leave the car running and run back in for that last comment. lmao.
She’s still a beast!

They just making jokes since she allegedly is hooking up with Drake
Still a winner!!
Umm ?she better drop is a$$ if so, dust herself off and try again, try again, again ( Aaliyah voice)
Night folks
“But you live, you live to fight another day”…….
Bye TakeTake
??? nite
I knew her bid, for the slam, was in jeopardy when I saw pictures of her out with Kim Kardashian. You have a real career, act accordingly! Now to TicketExchange to try to sell my finals tickets.
See you next year Serena!!!! Still love you!!!!!!
Thats my only issue with her. She’ll learn hanging with the Hoes ain’t good for her.
She must have gave Drake a lil booty and loss her juice? Lol
Venus wore her out the other day. I’m glad it’s over and now she can chill and enjoy those millions. The media put too much on her. No watching US open for women this weekend
………………….
New post.
Dude Look Like a Lady.
Kim is trying to “Break the internet”, while Serena is trying to break records!!!!
Should have been on your game instead of running around acting like a thirstbucket for Aubrey.
Nice azz pic
She’s still the greatest woman athelete of all time.
Wahhhh! I’m so disappointed. I was really rooting for her. I refuse to watch the Finals. #PettyRumpskin (arms folded and pouting)
The Kim Kardashian curse strikes again!
I am SO upset! I wanted her to win SO bad. I won’t be watching the finals. I thought she was going to do it. This is really disappointing.
…
Should have stayed the hell away from the two people with the most horrible karma. Drake and Kim.
Shouldn’t have had Drake there she should have been concentrating on what was more important but I ain’t mad at her congratulations girl you still the winner in my book
Lol we almost said the same thing . The one thing our comments have in common is Drake so it must be the truth lol
LoL. I just scrolled down to read the comments. I guess most agree these two rotten apples are poison. I’m of the opinion you do like Lebron and go zero dark thirty or something like that. You shut down on errrythig including boyfriends and partying and concentrate on the event. I think she may have caught a bad one doing like the running back celebrating a TD on the 10 yard line and then, fumble.
And a bad judge of timing hanging out with Drake and Kim during her moment. It was HER moment and those mofo only exist to steal the limelight. She should know that.
Yes he is. He was a distraction. He is a jock sniffer who brings bad aura to any winning team. Expect him to be in Green Bay Packers locker room should they win the SB. He don’t even know where Green Bay is or what is a Packer. I can’t stand that assclown.
Not in the same calendar year. That was the big deal. This would have been it.
No one is taking anything away from her. I think she is the best female tennis player of all time. This Drake stupidity was a lax in judgement. She had to go out and spend time with her alleged boyfriend when her mind should have been studying her opponent. #deportdraketocanada.
She’ll be aight
Toodles….
He was a huge distraction. In a couple of weeks he will be on to the next IG model while she is lamenting over this lost.
Tell me about it. He is a manho.
Thank you!! Should’ve keep circle small with sis, mom, dad, and stepmom. But nooooo, she needed hangers-on.
I wasn’t trying to get at you or nothing I was saying we basically was saying the same thing
I know PattyK. I’m just feeling a little salty. This woman had no business losing today to a no name.
It wasn’t a big deal to me because she has…………….
I know …right
True enough, but don’t tell her that because girl wanted this one badly and she knows we wanted it for her. Just sayin,
So I heard they saying Drake made her lose. I thought when you getting “it”its supposed to make you do better.
…………………
She is one of our greatest athletes! She’ll be back for sure!
Really?????
Hey bew
distracted from greatness, by a sorry, not so fabulous, Casanova!
She’s still the best anyway
Yeah that lil white lady was determined.
No, it’s a distraction. Ugh
Yes, I was at work and I heard about her play. I was prepared to sell my tickets, but as a true tennis fan, I look forward to seeing her play. Serena has completed the Serena Slam, just not all in a calendar year. Now she can start the quest all over again. It gives me something to look forward to. Love Serena and what she and Venus, along with Billie Jean King, have done for tennis. Tennis is the only sport where men and women make the same money. Go SERENA!!!!!!!!
Well I guess it depends on the person cuz it gives me super powers
Yeah cause the women bring out the same crowds as the men. Women don’t really play basketball as hard as the men. If they did they would bring out the same crowd. It was Venus that brought up the pay issue in which the committee felt she was right about not being paid equally as the men. They play just as hard as the men in tennis.
Actually, Billie Jean King, has been fighting for equal pay since forever but Venus was in a winning position make it happen. Serena continues to carry the torch.
Yeah. Well of course it started somewhere. Women in every industry need to keep fighting for equal pay.
Biggest upset in history
She’s still a true champion! ???
So true!
