Williams wishes she could give line judge a hug
NEW YORK – After two days to think about it, Serena Williams wishes she could give the line judge she yelled at "a big ol' hug."

~snip~

Williams was fined $10,000 on Sunday and issued a written apology Monday, a day after coming out with a different, less-contrite statement.

In the news conference, she said the line judge was only doing her job.

Asked what she'd do if she saw the line judge again, Williams replied: "I'd like to give her a big ol' hug and put it all behind us like I have. Move on from it like I have and just learn."

2. Serena could squash that judge like a bug
If I were the line judge, I'd take off running.

6. She also apologized after she and Venus won the doubles
Glad that she did that. What Serena did on Saturday was wrong.
