Andy Murray Continues To Speak Up About Gender Equality In Tennis
In a piece published by the BBC today, Andy Murray, the gruff Scotsman and current world No. 3 who’s emerged as an outspoken feminist over the years, wrote that, “I have been asked about women’s equality and I would find it hard to look any of the top female tennis players in the eye if I did not sp...
