They usually modify the rules for the Battle of the Sexes games. For example, it's not uncommon for the female to be playing the singles court while the male has the whole doubles court to contend with. Another common rule change is to limit the male to a single serve for each point (not counting lets).

makes a mockery of the concept doesnt it.

They're trying to make it look like a contest, when everyone knows that the top males would wipe the floor with the top females in reality.

If Kyrigios takes the match seriously, Sabalenka won't win a game. She might struggle to win a point.


Who remembers 50 years ago when Bobby Riggs, aged 55 and with coke bottle lens glasses, comprehensively beat 10-time Wimbledon winner Billy Jean King, 30-year-old 6-2 6-1.

At his best he was good enough to beat anyone, he did make a Wimbledon final.

His issue is as much between the ears as anything.

How good was the basketball tonight? The 36ers defeated the Kings 85-79 after being down for most of the game. Cotton by his standards, had a quiet game, but others stood up. Flynn Cameron really stood up.

36ers needed that win.

Needed to prove we can get the job done against a very good outfit without Cotton needing to shoulder all the load.

Also, Kendrick Davis was held by his standards. He totally destroyed the 36ers' last match.

When he shot that, I went oh no. Too far out. It was all net and killed the match.

The 36ers looked tired today. Still managed to win.
