Tennis is interesting because the women are almost more popular than the men. In the U.S. Open, women even get exactly the same money as the men.

I grew up in an age where women's tennis did not have similar prizes to men, and they played in complete obscurity, really, compared to the men's game.

Women's tennis has been around for a very long time - we're talking about the 1800s. But women's soccer hasn't had such a long history, so now they're right at the beginning of really trying to make things equal. We need to continue not only to advocate for women but to have men advocating for women.

Tennis is definitely a star for women in sports.

Tennis has been around for so long - women have been playing the majors since the 1800s. Other sports have not had professional leagues for women for as long.

I think that tennis is a lady's sport, so we should look out there like ladies.

Where is women's sports prominently displayed with the men? Tennis is the only thing I can think of.

Tennis Australia really led the charge as far as upping the prize money and trying to do the right thing by the players. They also led the way so women have equal prize money in all the grand slams too.

I haven't been in tennis for that long, but what I can say is that we have a lot of young guys at the top who are willing to do a lot of good things for tennis in general.

In the history of women's tennis the great players have come back from long absences with no problems.
