Mens final, interesting.

Also I wonder what people think about the equal prize money thing this year.

I personally think the women don't deserve as much for what they do.  :P

Completely agree, if they want the same pay as the men, they should be made to play the best of 5 sets.

Indeed, that's the thrust of my point.

Sweaty panties and all.

Perhaps they feel they make up for the lack of sets by screaming whilst hitting the ball.

Todays final was a missmatch and boring.

One of them should have been playing in the mens competition.

I understand the winners have to dance together at the end of competition party.

Wonder who Venus wants to win.
