Per the Guardian:

The
All England Club is expected to announce this morning that Wimbledon
will fall into line and pay equal prize money to women this year. The
Australian and US Open treat both sexes as equal and last year the
French decided that only the respective champions should receive the
same. However, if Wimbledon follows the limited line of the French, it
can expect further criticism from the WTA Tour.
i can't believe that this has taken this long to happen. it's a baby step in the right direction, but so sad that we still are dealing with these basic equlity rights in the modern world.

i'm an avid tennis player who's a bit cynical, but I'm going to set aside my views for one opening entry and just share the love to the tennis community. i've discovered a new tennis site called www.tennislessons.com that allows players to post free ads in search of teachers, lessons, clients, partners, etc. the best part is that it's classified by us city, so you only get matches by people in your local area. it's a great way to meet tennis players of all ages and abilities in your neighborhood.
