Serena Williams' husband slams her haters

Alexis Ohanian silenced Williams' critic Ion Tiriac, the director of the Madrid Open who said that Williams would retire "if she had a little decency". A Romanian publication named ProSport said that Serena should retire from Tennis as her age and weight restricts her to move easily.

That's when Alexis decided to give Ion a fitting reply. "It's safe to say no one gives a damn what Ion Tiriac thinks," he said. He further lashed out at him by calling Tiriac a "racist/sexist clown."

Serena Williams advances into the semi-finals

The Australian Open is Serena's 40th Grand Slam semi-final match. She beat Halep 6-3 6-3 at the Rod Laver Arena.

She will now be facing Naomi Osaka who defeated Taiwan's Hsieh Su-Wei in the quarter-finals. Serena Williams currently ranks 11th in the world.
