Description
We get a little more serious this week as we go over the various controversies and misogyny that happened in the last days of Madrid. From Cakegate to the ball crew’s uniforms and the mockery of them, to the silencing of the final two women’s doubles teams, to the alleged rigging in favor of Carlos Alcaraz. As women, it is our responsibility to talk about these problems and shed light on misogyny. It isn’t all doom and gloom, though, Katie talks about the men’s doubles final and Rublanov. Then, we look forward to Rome and Katie gives her quarterfinalist predictions. (Yes, they’ve already aged terribly.)
