Drake and Serena Williams have been smoochin' it up over the last couple weeks, so when the Toronto rapper showed up at her U.S. Open match against Roberta Vinci earlier today, we weren't surprised. He had the radio thingy in his ear and everything and put on a mean mug and clapped vigorously for his lady:

What did surprise us, though, was that Serena—who was a HUGE favorite heading into the match—ended up losing to Vinci and missing out on the chance to win the Grand Slam. And of course, Twitter dot com reacted to this by going nuts with tweets blaming Drizzy for Serena's unlikely demise. We scrambled and found some of our favorites. Check them out below:

If Drake & Future would've released their mixtape this morning, Serena would've won.
