Five talking points from the sporting weekend

Serena Williams loses US Open… but steals the headlines

Naomi Osaka won her maiden Grand Slam on Saturday night. It should have been a night of overriding joy, but the match ended in a mix of elation and confusion.

Osaka swept Williams aside in the first set, winning 6-2.

But during a very nip and tuck second set, the final will be remembered for the Williams outburst that cost her the match and set Osaka up for a historic win.

The 36-year-old called umpire Carlos Ramos a ‘thief’ after docking her points, which has opened up a whole new debate on double standards in tennis as a whole.

Moto GP madness in San Marino

Moto GP made the headlines for all the wrong reasons over the weekend.

It was the second-tier Moto2 race which ended in outrage across the sporting world as Romano Fenati pressed a rival’s brake during the race, with the pair travelling up to 140mph.

Fenati was banned after 23 laps for ‘irresponsible driving’ and has been told to sit out the next two races by MotoGP officials. This might not matter after he was sacked by his team Marinelli Snipers.

This dispute will rage on despite the sanctions. British driver Carl Crutchlow came third in the main race, behind winner Andrea Dovizioso, and called for a lifetime ban.

Amir Khan to go again?

Amir Khan returned to the Boxing ring on Saturday night, and despite getting knocked down came away with a second-successive victory on his comeback.

After winning on points, Khan was vocal in his desire to fight either Kell Brook or Manny Pacquiao next.

A bout of that nature would represent a huge turn-around for the man who last held a title belt seven years ago.

A Brook-Khan blockbuster could come to fruition sooner rather than later.
