Serena Williams lost the game that is meant to be the most heart-breaking match of her career during the U.S. Open on Friday, and the Internet has blamed her rumoured new boyfriend, rapper Drake, for the loss.
Williams lost the semi-final match to unseeded Roberta Vinci of Italy on Friday afternoon 2-6, 6-4, 6-4. The match was very intense and it had Serena yelling after each shot she won.
Then Roberta at one point threw her hands up when she won and basically was taunting the crowd because everyone was cheering only for Serena.
Drake's song "Hold On, We're Going Home." Kept playing while Serena played.
Drake looked happy and was laughing and smiling when the song came on.
Serena's loss, however, is going to take a lot more to get over, as she was on her way to becoming only the sixth player in history to win all four grand slams in a year.
Soon after her bid for the first Grand Slam since 1988 came to a halt in shocking
fashion, Not surprisingly, it didn't take long for the Drake backlash to begin, the hashtags 'blamedrake' and 'drakecurse' started trending on Twitter.
'Wherever Drake cheers, losing follows. The curse continues. #SerenaWilliams', one social media user shared on Friday. Tweets and more photos below;
