Johnny Mac is completely vindicated. He took so much crap for saying Sabrina would be about #600 on the men’s tour. Apparently he was being more than generous.

It drives me nuts that the US Open matches prize money while touting the whole “equal pay” bs despite the men’s matches bringing in higher ticket values and lasting 40% longer. It’s equal pay but it’s definitely not equal effort.
Female tennis players are lucky that their tournaments are intertwined with the men. They get a lot more eyes (and money) than they would on their own.
I once watched Venus Williams play while waiting to see Djokovic play when I was stranded in Miami due to a flight cancellation. If it had been a women only tournament going on at the time, it wouldn’t have crossed my mind to attend.

Eh, women's tennis gets viewers sometimes because of the eye candy.
And while women make up a small minority of the viewership of most sports, I bet that the % is much more equal in tennis. Women like watching other women play sports.

They are both trying to draw attention to trannies playing against girls being a bad thing.
