Serena Williams has opened up in her first interview since accusing a US Open umpire of sexism, insisting she did not conspire to cheat with her coach. Williams clashed with umpire Carlos Ramos after she was given a warning for receiving coaching from her box in the second set of the final, describing the tennis official as a "thief" and a "liar". Discussing the incident on Australian television show The Sunday Project, the 23-time Grand Slam champion asserted she did not receive help from coach Patrick Mouratoglou during her defeat to Naomi Osaka.
