I would assume this years men’s final would be higher since it was Fed-Novak

This. Pretty much covers other areas of "equality" also. You put out your hands to help them up to your level and they want to step on your head instead.

Serena could definitely hold her own

If she worked on my site, she’d do a damn good jobs
Sturdy muscular broad

If she worked at my plant. She’d fit in with the baws

If she worked at my mill, the baws would call her one of their own

Does the US. Tennis Federation pay tennis players on the American Tennis team. Is there an American tennis team? Is the Women's American Tennis team drawing more revenue/viewers than the Men's American Tennis team? Do you understand how stupid you are? most people are ignorant of their level of stupidity. You get a 9/10 for this stupid comment.

I didn't watch either, so pardon my ignorance. But...

Doesn't matter.

Who brings in the most eyeballs/ad revenue? They should be paid proportionality based off of that and nothing else. That is fair.

I would think Novak or Federer bring in higher ratings than Serena.

Not saying in the US. I mean in the world.

What if Halep and Serena ended in a third set, 13-12?

The effort doesn’t have anything to do with why men should be paid more.

Men should be paid more because of the revenue they bring in.

If a women’s game generates more revenue, then and only then should they earn more.

Revenue that your name or likeness generates creates the leverage to make money (unless you are a college football or basketball player). That's how it works for examples like modeling, fashion, music, and other sports.

Complaining about it doesn't seem useful. If you make people money and don't get fairly compensated then go on strike. If you matter to their bottom line the other party should come to a compromise.

So what happens if a Woman's three-set final lasts longer than a three-set men's final.


ill take a stance here based on zero research and say that no women's singles champion has spent more time on the court throughout her run than a men's champion

This shite is still on the first page

Women can decide a tennis match in two sets. Men take a minimum of three. Women are more efficient than men. Women should be paid more than men DERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRP

You mean like Maternity Leave? If I had to choose between 2 equally qualified candidates that were of the opposite sex, I'd go with the man every time. Not only would I have to pay the woman, I'd also have to pay a temp worker when she is out.
