He moved one major singles title ahead of Serena Williams to become the first player to win 24 in the Open era. Margaret Court also collected a total of 24, but 13 of those came before professionals were admitted to the Slam events.

I don't agree with comparing men and women's records as the games are different.

Saw the trophy presentation and heard both men and women champs were getting the same pay for winning. I again disagree with this.

In the men's game it could go to five sets to determine a winner. Women play three sets.

I'd ask if in the real world of work would someone who worked six hours should be paid the same as someone who worked eight.

It's wokedom.

Communism pays everyone the same no matter how unfair that is.

It was Billy Jean King who got the equal pay for women’s tennis. As a woman, I agree with you. Women play 2 out of 3 minumum games to win and Men play minimum 3 out of 5. If women want to play 5 sets then they get the same pay.
