"Only" at the majors? The slams are the four superbowls of the tennis calender and carry the largest prize money pools. Are you suggesting that it's perfectly okay to have inequity and injustice (women getting paid the same as men) just so long as it only happens 4x a year and at the biggest tournaments? Where's the principle in that?

Ticket price for women's finals: 539.77 pounds

Ticket price for men's final 2500 Pounds.

Pretty much tells the story. I won't waste even $10 watching WTA finals.

WTA=Fail!

I think this topic will get some heat and opinion only if Fed raises his voice against the injustice done to men.

Not Nadal, not even Novak....one and only Fed!
