Didn't king get doubles lines, vs Riggs getting singles lines?


That was Connor’s vs Navratilova and Jimmy was coming off of hip surgery; he got one serve and singles line Martina got two serves and doubles lines. Jimmy still won.

Oh, you know what, you're right! In the late 80s or early 90s. Connors was in his 40s and Martina was in her 30s. I was out of the country then but it was big news in Europe too.

Then she cited Billy Jean King vs Bobby Riggs.


I think it's hilarious that she ignores a match that was JUST PLAYED to cite one from the 70s
