The money won in the majors is the same for both women and men.At Wimbledon, the womens game doesn't last as long as the mens. They play less Sets.
Hence the women tennis players are saying that they want to play the same number of sets as what the men play, so they should then be on the same money/winnings.
But then, if I could win even half what they get for winning a tennis tournament, I wouldn't be complaining! :)
Do you think that Lindsay Davenport will retire after this U.S.Open?
Theres nowt like Quimbledon lad.What female tennis player won French Open in 1993?
well i don't know if u know much about tennis...but there is a huge difference between men and women tennis.
the reason why women and men don't compete against each other is that the men's game is more physical than the women's.
more importantly 80% of the women would be overpowered by the men.
If women want the same money as men at the Majors, then they have to play the best of five sets. After all women drive buses and trains, deliver the post, fight fires and they don`t get to bunk off from these jobs 2 hours before the men for the same money. It occurs to me that all these sexual equlity women only want equality when it suits them.

MONEY!
If tournament directors made more money at female tourney's then at male tourneys there'd be increased competition to host women's tournaments, so they'd be forced to increase the prize money. I'd love to debate whether or not they "deserve," more but the fact is in the current global economy if the audience would pay more to see women, then the women would earn more.
Can I serve over arm, like in Tennis?
The dubiously named 'The Man' is right.More people watch men's tennis, therefore bringing more money in. Why should the women take the money the men bring in?
Female footballers don't demand the same as males, nor do female rugby players... admittedly women's tennis gets a higher percentage of spectators than other sports, but it's still not on a par. When it is, they can claim pay parity.
