'We are looking for ways to increase the fan awareness of what's going on in stadium.' Chief umpire Jake Garner on US Open's decision to post code violations on the scoreboard as they occur
Serena Williams, right, talks with chair umpire Carlos Ramos as Naomi Osaka, of Japan, listens during the women's final of the US Open tennis tournament, Sept. 8, 2018, in New York.
Chair umpire Carlos Ramos, in line with the Grand Slam rule book, warned Williams for a coaching violation during last year's showpiece with Japan's Naomi Osaka before deducting a point and later a game for her behaviour, which included a smashed racket and calling him a "liar" and thief." In another bid to avoid confusion with how rules are applied the USTA said match officials will be more widely available to broadcasters while during the semi-finals and final an official will be on Twitter throughout the match explaining the rules.
