It's just the world we live in.

the case for the US national teams is compelling. men are GARBAGE. women are consistentlt TOP3. discuss.
i think they adopted this in tennis. GARBAGE! 3 sets only? i forget who said... mens #100 prolly kick womens #1 ass.... well, MAYBE not, but not far off.

Same applies to tennis. If the women want equal pay, let’s make the competitions just one tournament open to both male and female.
Not sure they’d go for that.

Plus tennis is probably the most unequal sport around. Women get paid the same as men for doing less work.
