They're also running an ad celebrating 50 years of "equal pay" (aka the men subsidizing the women), despite the fact that the men play best of 5 sets while the women play best of 3 sets.
If the women played more sets than the men while being paid the same, we'd never hear the end of their screeching.
They also show the score from the second Billie Jean-King exhibition match where she played a man and won, but the man let her win that match, yet they're showing it to claim women can beat men lmao

The then-teenage Williams sisters played against chain-smoking, beer-drinking has-been Karsten Braasch back-to-back and still lost.
Didn't just lose. Lost badly. Like 6-1 and 6-2, when he went easy on them to keep it "interesting".
Bobby Riggs was also, y'know, twice her age
but the man let her win that match,
Why? He should not have done that
Someone got to him. He totally changed his demeanor from the first match.
