The suspension seems fair to me. Lahyani made a mistake here.

It is truly staggering how Serena is being portrayed as the victim here. It genuinely beggars belief.

Although unfortunately, I imagine this incident will only have negative consequences for Ramos.

Billie Jean King is talking complete nonsense. Anyway, good on Serena for fighting for women's rights, like that time when she threatened to shove a tennis ball down a female line-judge's throat.

He's now the target of a backlash from the Twitter feminists. Sadly, those people do not care for facts and logic.

Mystifies me why the tournament is releasing a statement in gushing praise of Williams.

Well said.

I can't really vote on the poll since I don't agree with any of the options entirely. They should ignore it and schedule the final as normal.

Seems like Bartoli is the one who picked a fight. She criticised Kyrgios. Kyrgios responded. How is this getting blamed on Kyrgios?

He shouldn't. I hope he doesn't.

Sure, Nadal is the rightful number one. He accumulated more points over the year, and deserved it. It is kinda funny, I mean it's really the "Nadal-fan logic" that would suggest Federer had the better year: close in terms of titles between the two, but Federer won all the H2H matches.

How about the women start generating the same revenue as the men, if they are so determined to be treated equally? Or in fact, if the women's game is just as tough as the men's, why even have a separate women's tour? Just have one tour for both men and women, competing against each other.

The Express is publishing a huge number of clickbait tennis articles at the moment, lol.

Yeah, shame this didn't happen last year. I don't see Federer winning this year tbh. I'd put Murray as a heavy favourite should they meet. Wouldn't surprise me if Fed lost before meeting Murray anyway.

The men's game is simply more popular. She's got no point at all here. Compare the debenture finals ticket prices: Ladies' final - £2120 Men's final - £6720 (source: https://www.wimbledondebentureholders.com/) The women's game is probably over-represented on the show courts, once you correct...

Using that logic though, why are doubles players/juniors/wheelchair players paid less?

What's he doing? His Twitter behaviour is kinda weird, he calls out a fair few people who criticise his commentary. I think he must search his own name... Awful commentator.

To be honest, the women at Wimbledon should be thankful that they can piggyback off the success of the men. If there was a separate "Women's Wimbledon" held,for example, the week after the men's tournament, it would get far less coverage and viewers. So, Wozniacki acting as if things are biased...

Wow, this is the lead story on the Daily Mail website. They are stirring like they do best: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/tennis/article-2837796/Stan-Wawrinka-argued-Roger-Federer-O2-Arena-hearing-wife-world-No-2.html

I think banning his orange-soled shoes was a bit much, especially with what other players have gotten away with, but I very much like the predominantly-white dress code.

Definitely Nadal.

But of course it's fine when you insult Wawrinka on the first page of the thread, right? :???:

I find looking at that statistic very illogical. It rewards players for taking 5 sets to dispatch their opponent rather than getting the job done in straights, and penalises players for getting beaten in 5 sets as opposed to beaten in straight sets.

Exactly... It's hilarious that people are blaming Stan for pointing out cheating.

I would say Federer, because if Serena played on the men's tour, she'd have no slams.

Yes, that is definitely possible IMO.

I don't think Federer is running from Nadal. Why would he always have previously went deep into clay tournaments when Nadal almost always beat him on the surface? I think Federer is just losing more often now, he's a worse player, I don't think he tanked.

Or make Federer as "good" as Sampras on clay, and he'd probably never have played Nadal at Roland Garros, and posters such as yourself with a dubious grasp of logic would then consider him a better player? Sorry, makes no sense at all.

Lol, that is some serious ownage. THUNDERVOLLEY says we cannot trust Lupica's opinion when he says Federer is the GOAT, but then insults those who criticise Lupica when he instead picks Nadal as the GOAT. Can't get any more inconsistent than that.

You don't honestly believe the nonsense you post, do you? http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/1009/top.ten.tennis/content.10.html http://www.tennischannel.com/goat/71.aspx Yeah, clearly nobody outside of a few deluded idiots on this forum thinks Federer is the best...
