Kim Clijsters really crushed World No 2 Serena Williams in a straight set match for a 6-4, 7-5 in the US Open semi-finals on Saturday to enter the title clash.
Williams had earlier drawn a warning for smashing her racquet to the ground after losing the first set. The second warning was an automatic point penalty, which just happened to come on match point.
"I said something and I guess they gave me a point penalty and unfortunately it was on match point," she said.
"Clearly in all this year I've never, never been foot-faulted and suddenly in this tournament they give me foot faults.
"I'm not saying I don't foot fault, but it was what it was.
"I've never been in a fight in my whole life so I don't know why she would feel threatened.
"I'm clearly not happy."
Clijsters is the first wildcard entry to reach the US Open finals as well as the first ever mother to be a part of the Grand Slam finals since Australia's Evonne Goolagong in 1980.
"I was trying to stay focussed for the match and was facing the other way," Clijsters said.
"I saw Serena talking to the linesman, but I was too far way to hear what she was saying so I can't really comment on what was happening out there."
Kim Cllijsters will face Caroline Wozniacki on Sunday for the title. Caroline Wozniacki entered the finals of US Open after she took over Yanina Wickmayer of Belgium 6-3, 6-3 in the semis.
