Over the years there has been much conjecture as to whether or not women should be paid the same to play grand slam tennis matches as men even though they only play best of three sets and the men compete in best of five sets matches. I think that the argument can be put to bed and that the pay scale should be the same only men should start playing best of three sets matches. Why? To save the planet. That's why.
Let me explain. Recently companies in Australia have been advertising how effective their turf lawns are at reducing the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide. It is much better for the planet to plant turf than pavers. Well, did anyone notice the state of centre court at Wimbledon in the final between Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer? The grass was almost dead. Not a great deal of absorption of greenhouse gases taking place there, let me tell you. The organisers of the Wimbledon Championship should take a good, long look at themselves and their reckless attitude towards the health of the planet. Look after the grass by reducing the length of men's matches and we will all benefit.
And it will also stop the equalitarians from whinging. I think I just made up a new word here.

Women need to be paid more!! How to reduce green house gasses. Use less, reduce, re-use and recyle. Take the bus to work like Hammy does. Walk and bike more. Keep cars tuned up and live a green lifestyle. Daphne
Bastards...
Tone the language down please people. You know who I mean.
Not you Joe. That's acceptable in my book.
