Male tennis player: women should be payed less money- Sharapova et al catch feelings.

usmarin3 · July 2012

Womens tennis hasn't been shit in years and the mens side has mostly been stronger for the longest. I agree with dude, why should women get payed the same when the men play more sets. Nadal, Federor, and Djokovic are the 3 biggest draws in tennis right now, the womens game has a bunch of no names at the top and Serena has been inconsistent as hell since her injury.

He raises good points but perhaps could have delivered the message better. he also does appear to be a bit of a dick so that flies against him.

More telling is the fact that Roddick and Federer don't seem entirely unopposed to his viewpoints and I'd imagine they are a bit more on his side in private conversations.

If all the mechanics of each perspective sides' sport (match length etc) are the same then yea they should be paid the same. Until that holds true then no, they shouldn't be paid the same.

Well to play devils advocate....if men's tennis is bringing the majority of the money shouldn't they get the lions share of the purse?.....why not have the purse given to the winner be a percentage of ticket sales....advertising dollars...and concessions along with ant other tennis related income divided up between the individual tours.....I don't think its fair if men's tennis is bringin in for example 70% of the income and then u have to split the winnings with the winner of the other tourney that's bringing in peanuts.....its like I say....women only want equality when it benefits them

Tennis wouldn't get the attention that it does without woman's tennis taking off. He's talking out of his ass, being sexist without being a realist. He can look at the numbers all he wants but if they takes Serena and those sexy sounding women off TV, they gonna find their ass on ESPN3 and FX with these tennis games shortly.

Maybe in the US Serena & Venus are why tennis has taken off. But Federer, Nadal & Djokivic are international stars & have a much larger draw than the Williams.

Cosign. I thought about that after I posted. Too sawry to edit. When I typed, all I could think about was the hoes I see. Regardless though, the women have done more for the game than this clown is putting on. They all getting paid. Hell, I cringe when I see what WNBA players make and then I think about Rashard Lewis robbing the NBA.
