Novak Djokovic says that his sore shoulder is feeling better. The world No. 1 retired in the final of Cincinnati against Andy Murray, citing a shoulder problem.

“My shoulder is feeling fine,” he said at the U.S. Open. “I had a little trouble in Cincinnati throughout the whole week, and I carried that up to the finals. It was unfortunate to finish this way the match against Murray. But I think it was right decision, because I needed not to risk any further major injuries. So I decided to take some time off and went to MRI and everything is fine. I have been serving in last couple of days, playing 100%, so I’m ready for the tournament.”

Serena Williams says she became “popular” after she imploded and cursed out a lineswoman during her loss to Kim Clijsters in the 2009 U.S. Open semifinals. Williams was later fined for the incident, where she threatened to “take this (expletive) ball and shove it down your (expletive) throat.”

“I just remember I lost, and that was that,” Serena told reporters on Monday, possibly with a touch of sarcasm . “I got really popular. A lot of people were telling me they thought I was super cool, that they’d never saw me so intense. So, yeah, it was awesome.”

Williams, who later apologized, said she isn’t sure if she learned anything from the incident. “I don’t know. I don’t think about it,” she said. “Oh, my God, that was like two years ago.”
