Tennis star Serena Williams has accused the Russian tennis chief of making 'extremely sexist, racist and bullying' comments after he described her and her sister Venus as 'scary' to look at.

Shamil Tarpischev, of the Russian Tennis Federation, made the remarks during an appearance on a local TV talk show this month alongside former Olympic singles champion Elena Dementieva.

When Dementieva was asked what it was like playing against the Williams sisters, Tarpischev cut in and called them the 'Williams brothers', before adding: 'It's scary when you really look at them.'

Russians are extremely racist, and this is nothing extreme from them.  If you are a person of color, your life is at risk in Russia.

And I am an American, and I think Serena is a bit scary looking.  I have seen both play, and Venus does not look like her sister.
