Fiery Troicki, slumped to a second round 3-6, 6-3, 6-3, 2-6, 6-3 defeat to Spain's Albert Ramos Vinolas after slipping to match point down on a controversial over-rule by umpire Damiano Torella.
"You're the worst umpire in the world, you're so bad," screamed Troicki, who received a code violation for his behaviour.
Williams was handed a $10,000 fine for smashing her racquet after losing the first set of her third round tie to Christina McHale which she won 6-7, 6-2, 6-4 on Friday.
