Serena Williams complained on social media that it’s “test Serena” time again, as she once more criticized the frequency with which she is selected for anti-doping tests.
The 23-time Grand Slam champion took to Twitter on Tuesday night after she received another visit from a tester.
…and it’s that time of the day to get “randomly” drug tested and only test Serena. Out of all the players it’s been proven I’m the one getting tested the most. Discrimination? I think so. At least I’ll be keeping the sport clean #StayPositive

But I’m ready to do whatever it takes to have a clean sport so bring it on. I’m excited.

“Just test everyone equally,” Williams said on the eve of this year’s Wimbledon, where she lost to Angelique Kerber in the final.
A report by Deadspin said Williams had been checked five times in 2018 by June, more than other U.S. women and men in the sport. It could be because she’s so dominate, and so much stronger looking than all of her competitors. It goes with the territory.
