Bit of a kerfuffle in the world of tennis.
Serena Williams, arguably still one of the top female tennis players in the world (and certainly the most marketable one) was just rewarded a 25th seed at Wimbledon.
Where's the controversy in that?
Well, Ms.Williams has spent the last 18 months
not playing tennis but having and caring for a child.
In that time period, she has fallen in ranking from 1st in the world (or thereabouts) to 180-something. Wimbledon, being about the "best of the best", by their own standards, shouldn't have invited her to begin with. But she is a big marketing draw, so Wimbledon has rewritten it's rules in a really bad way to discovery that there is a loophole for her not only to play in their tournament- imagine that!
The Serena Williams exception makes sense because she is an exceptional talent and exception business but should other people take exception to her exception? Some people are- starting with an anonymous male player.
While I am sure he is not the only one of either sex, he's been singled out because of what he said.
He complained that Wimbledon is making hash out of its name to please Serena Williams who doesn't deserve special treatment. And that it feeds into a larger issue: the SJWs have tennis by the ummm...balls....about how tennis, and male tennis in particular is sexist, racist, ableist...all the ists and the professional circuit (and their advertisers) are under a moral obligation to promote the female side of things in the name of justice and yadayada....the women's players are just as good as the men and if you think otherwise, you should be executed in the middle of the court!
...well, Mr.Anonoymous pointed out that for all the talk about the women's side of things being so equal it's more equal, that if the roles were reversed
no exception would be made to a male player for taking 18 months off from their careers. He also pointed out that big name Serena Williams, who will be lauded wherever she goes for the rest of her life as a tennis world champion (and brand promoter) just robbed another woman of her chance to make a bigger career out of tennis and it's a farce that all these feminists are okay with that.
This has sent them hens a-cluckin' to find and purge this bigot from the book of life!
