'At the US Open there was more focus on Williams than Osaka' – Courier

Speaking on Nine 9 the former world No. 1 commented on win over in the Australian Open final. The former American player, who interviewed a lot of players on the Rod Laver Arena over these two weeks, said: This match was a wonderful example of everything thats right with tennis and Naomi Osakas going to get that moment that will be uncluttered, therell be no problems associated with this win in the same way that coming out of the US Open there was so much drama and so much focus on Serena and the chair umpire that she was largely underlooked in this seminal moment in her life.

Courier also added: And suddenly in this very next major theres some justice in some ways, the fact that shes going to get this glory now and its going to be all hers. I think we needed a sporting final, particularly on an arena that was named after Rod Laver, not just because of his achievements but because of how he conducts himself, and we certainly got that tonight.

Serena is currently enjoying some time off with her daughter Olympia and husband Alexis Ohanian before coming back to practice and starting to prepare for the BNP Paribas Open of Indian Wells. ALSO READ: Djokovic would beat Roger Federer in Australian Open final – Evert
