Several tennis associations have come to the aid of Serena Williams after her loss to Naomi Osaka during the U.S. Open final.

Williams, in the final, was fined $10,000 for “verbal abuse” of chair umpire Carlos Ramos, another $4,000 for being warned for coaching in the match, and $3,000 for breaking her tennis racket. It comes out of her $1.85 million prize money, according to The Associated Press.
