Equal Pay for Equal Work? He Thinks Not
- Share via
Hooray for the lady tennis players who are demanding equal prize money for the Aussie Open. Aside from playing an inferior level of tennis, early-round matches frequently over in 45 minutes, and title matches requiring 60% of the effort (two out of three instead of men’s three out of five), they have every right to expect equal money.
Go for it, gals. Stand up for your principles--then get a job.
