Why are all the Minions male?
Always ask yourself, "What would Big Rodney do"... And every time the answer is... "Eat It"

Looks like Murray and your Aussie/Hungarian woman are both knackered before the thing even starts.

Men draw a 20% larger audience than women on average
Men play 66% longer than women
Therefore women are paid 1.33 times more than men for the value they create

They don't get "paid" they win prize money.

Prize money should be awarded on the value they earn
If a womens 3 set match on a saturday has 20% less viewers than a 5 set mens match on a Sunday but they win the same, then something is wrong

Re: Wimbledon
The women take home more cash on average because most of them also play the doubles and mixed doubles. Very few of the elite men do because of the punishing singles schedule.
