Women's tennis

[TonyQuinn]

It's 4-0 to Williams already in the Wimbledon final, I wouldn't be surprised if she wins both sets to zip. Now, what is wrong with women's tennis....why is it so uncompetitive and why do they get paid the same as men? Doesn't make sense to me.

[TonyQuinn]

I take it all back. She won a game!

[Otta]

Isn't her opponent suffering from a respiratory illness?

[Otta]

I miss Stefi and her legs.

[TonyQuinn]

I take it all back.....this Radwanska is really putting up a fight!

[Alan Medic]

.......and she had a cold. C'mon Tim!

Eventually it was a good match.

Agree about the Wimbledon prize money, make the ladeez play best of 5 sets like the men...on second thoughts, don't bother.

Women.

Equivalent of ladies is gentlemen. Equivalent of men is women.

Dear god, it's like the letters page of the Telegraph in here.

[Loz]

To be fair, we are talking Wimbledon so they are playing to be the "Ladies Singles Champion"

[RosieH]

Ah, we're being fair are we.

Ok then, in that case, we should make Usain Bolt earn his money by running for as long as, say, Tiger Woods plays golf?

Or women footballers earn as much as men footballers - after all, they're on the pitch the same length of time...

A 'soothing' contribution from today's ST letters page...

SIR - Who could doubt that women's tennis is more entertaining than men's tennis? Each game is so brief, so my attention does not wander. In men's matches the ball is hammered across the net in such a way that I cannot relax.

Or maybe just get rid of the gender divide and just have a single competition? That would solve the argument instantly.

Which bloke would have the balls to go up against Fatima Whitbred?..
