There is always a level of discretion when it comes to refereeing and people who believe there is one absolute correct way to approach every situation probably believe the poo poo that Kavanaugh spewed this week

Yes, in a Grand Slam final where things are especially heated, it is certainly possible, and more useful, for the umpire to say "if you keep going with this you're getting a game penalty" at the very least. This is the same tournament where another umpire got out of their chair to plead with a player to play better for the good of the sport.

Anyway the women's doubles finals are on for people who are watching tennis and not just driving by with thermonuclear takes

Great takes. You guys could write tennis articles for the press. All you need to do is promise never to watch a single match that isn't in a Grand Slam tournament and promise to never learn anything about any player who isn't Serena Williams or one of the big four men's players.

i think there's some cross-talk between whether the rule was unusually enforced and whether that enforcement should be unusual. I don't know about the first because I'm a Grand Slam Watcher but as to the latter I can only pray this happens to Djokovic someday

Her opponent doesn't matter because it's not that the umpire wanted to gift a slam to a white person, it's that he created the appearance of punishing "uppity" behavior that has been excused in other circumstances
