Serena Williams pulled no punches with men at the ESPYs who she felt shouldn’t have been speaking about women, including ESPN’s Pat McAfee.
Earlier this year, McAfee put his foot in his mouth with some really awful comments on Caitlin Clark. He called her a “white [expletive]” during an attempt to prove a point about the WNBA hating on the rookie. The joke was bad. The comment was even worse. And Serena Williams didn’t forget about it.
During a sidebar with Quinta Brunson and sister Venus Thursday, Serena called out several men— like Harrison Butker —who she felt were not helping the dialogue around women’s sports. That list seemingly included Pat McAfee, whom she chided. “Just don’t use the ‘B’ word,” she explained, before saying, “You know who you are.” (Warning: NSFW language.)
In a discussion on women's sports and what you can call female athletes with Quinta Brunson at last night's ESPYs, Serena and Venus Williams seemed to bring up Pat McAfee on Caitlin Clark. "Just don't use the b-word." "Never use the b-word." "You know who you are." pic.twitter.com/bNY9BGCON2
