This isn't the time to be sad. Serena won 4 grand slams in a row. She didn't win the calendar slam but she went out fighting! #CHAMPION

The lesson: no matter who you are, you may be just one ebullient Italian lady away from disaster

Serena: “I don’t want to talk about how disappointing this is for me. If you have another question I’ll answer that.”

Drake is already composing a Vinci diss track just in case

With Serena loss, ticket prices for women's final are plummeting like I've never seen

Please disembark the Serena bandwagon in a calm and orderly manner and be careful for items that may have shifted in the overhead bins.

If Roberta Vinci could win against Serena Williams in a grand slam, maybe even I could have a chance to someday understand women

Waking up from a nap… And Serena lost. 😔😔

I hope Serena feels the millions of us who are sending her love and hugs and know that we are not disappointed in her. Not at all.#serena

Heartbroken for Serena but she will always be my favorite champion.

— Kelly McCreary (@KellyMcCreary) September 11, 2015

Serena's mother Oracene said she thought the pressure of expectations got to Serena today.

— Jane McManus (@janesports) September 11, 2015

Average list price to women's final before Serena match today: $1,412 a ticket. Avg list price now? $680, says @TiqIQ

I normally make fun of people that get super into sports but here i am crying at work over Serena losing so joke's on me

— alexa (@actuallyalexa) September 11, 2015

Roberta Vinci defeated Serena Williams. Any attempts to link this statement to Leonardo da Vinci & Monalisa is an exercise in hopelessness.

No tears from Serena. Anyone who remembers her younger years has seen edgier pressers from her. But she kept it brief and businesslike

— Christopher Clarey (@christophclarey) September 11, 2015

I was really looking forward to Serena's Grand Slam. She is one of the greatest athletes who ever lived. Next year, beautiful girl.

Serena was over the post-match presser even before it started: "I don't want to talk about how disappointing it is." pic.twitter.com/CmNDLuuHTT

Wow the power of Serena. The women's finals tix now as low as $40.

— SallieMaeSux! (@BlkThemyscira) September 11, 2015

More surprising than Serena losing is how many people there are pretending they're tennis fans.

— The Guy (@theguydf) September 11, 2015

Where was Beyoncé to warn Serena away from Kim Kardashian?!

Everyone failed!
