Danger signs for Serena ahead of the US Open after she was derailed by an umpire call that got under her skin! 9WWOS

Williams was seemingly in control early, serving for the first set at 5-3, 30-0, when things began to unravel. She missed two backhands in a row, then put a forehand into the net to set up a break point, and walked over to the stand holding her towel at the back of the court .

At the ensuing changeover, the 23-time Grand Slam champion argued with Tourte, saying: "I mean, I'm getting my own towels. That's not fair. You should tell me on the sidelines next time if I need to play faster. Believe me, I will. ... You didn't even give me a warning."While Williams eventually did grab that set, she again frittered away a 5-3 lead in the second, plus a 4-1 edge in the tiebreaker.

Hours earlier, Novak Djokovic's neck felt much better, and his tennis looked much better, in a 6-2, 6-4 victory over unseeded American Tennys Sandgren that improved the No. 1-ranked man to 20-0 in 2020.Djokovic was treated by a trainer and played sluggishly in his opening match Monday, but he was at his best from the outset against Sandgren and saved all four break points he faced.The other quarterfinal in the top half of the draw will be defending champion Daniil Medvedev against No.

Opelka next meets No. 4 seed Stefanos Tsitsipas, whose 7-6 , 7-6 win over No. 16 John Isner was interrupted by a rain delay of nearly 1 1/2 hours late in the first set.
