I think most can agree that Serena Williams was out of line at this year's US Open. But what will be said of her punishment now that it has been decided?

Grand Slam administrator Bill Babcock tells the AP that Williams has been fined a record $82,500 and could be suspended from that tournament if she has another "major offense" in the next two years.



Interesting to compare Serena's story with that of Jeff Tarango, who until today held the record for a Grand Slam fine.
