Women's Tennis Doesn't Need ‘Battle Of Sexes,’ Says Iga Swiatek
Billie Jean King: Six-time Grand Slam champion Iga Swiatek dismissed the significance of the "Battle of the Sexes" event, which was heavily promoted during the 1973 tour, and stated that it represented only half of the overall women's tennis.
Swiatek said that while many view it as one of the top events in tennis history, on a global scale, women in tennis have nothing to prove and should not be measured against men's tennis when being compared to it.
“I haven’t watched because I don’t watch stuff like that,” Swiatek said during press conference. “I think for sure it attracted a lot of attention. It was entertainment, but I wouldn’t say that had anything to do with social change or any important topics.”
