Serena Williams and the Fight Against Sexism In Tennis

from The She-Compass Show · host Helen Owens and Jo Owens

Join us for our newest segment we call "Pointing North," where She-Compass takes an in-depth look at a hot topic affecting women to explore ways in which we can learn and grow from the experience. And if you like our show, please give us a 5-star review! In this episode, we examine what some say is a double-standard when judging women in professional tennis. She-Compass takes on the much-talked-about 2018 US Open in which Serena Williams, a 23-time Grand Slam singles-title winner lost to Naomi Osaka, a first-time US Open winner and 17 years Williams' junior. Did Williams lose the match because she lost her cool? Or was the umpire's ruling a blatant display of sexism aimed at Williams? Join as we delve into this issue.
