    I went and looked it up and both sisters did lose by a large margin against the man ranked 204th, back I “the battle of the sexes” in 1998.

    I guess their point is that the gap between pro and amateur is as big as the gap between professional men and women, in Tennis at least.

        Only the other person can do that.

        I offered my take for two reasons: trying be more active on Lemmy and because that comment had me learning something new today.

        Reading that the top Womens tennis player couldn’t beat a man that is not even in the top 200 sounded fishy to me and I was surprised when I learned that is true.

        Relearned also something today, I can’t tell what other people think,.speacilly on social media and shouldn’t try to guess what that is.
