After Rowling posted a congratulatory tweet following Williams' historic win, Twitter user @diegtristan8 responded by mockingly attributing the tennis player's success to her being "built like a man."

Rowling had a fantastic response, telling the troll off for his body-shaming behavior.

.@diegtristan8 "she is built like a man". Yeah, my husband looks just like this in a dress. You're an idiot.

As it turns out, Rowling is a bit of a Williams superfan — info that might have stayed this particular troll's hand. Earlier in the day, she even tweeted out this photo:

1. I'm glad she defended Serena

But I didn't think it was that great of a response.

I kept reading about "Rowling's epic twitter response" and when I clicked the link and read it, I was like "meh". I was expecting more. LOL
