Serena Williams Has Perfect Response To Indian Wells CEO’s Sexist Comments
Serena Williams didn’t hold back her thoughts on the sexist comments that Indian Wells CEO Raymond Moore made Sunday.
The biggest story in tennis this weekend was what Moore said before Williams lost to Victoria Azarenka in the BNP Paribas Open final.

What do you think? Leave a comment.
Williams later used part of her post-match press conference to blast Moore for his comments.

The next time Moore wants to talk about women’s tennis, he probably should remember what Williams has done as the sport’s biggest American star.
