Sport is about competition. It is the contest that attracts people to watch. Without a contest there is no sport.

Watching women being thrashed by men every day would lose its appeal very quickly. There are some sports where women can compete on equal terms but tennis is not really one of them.

Its not discrimination it is just common sense.

mikk,

Working metal turning lathes, milling machines and similar that have coolant trays.

Men will always out perform women on these machines on average.
Where there are men and women of equal skill the men will produce more work in a shift than the women.

It's a fact of life.

You see it all the time with female police and large offenders. The women are basically helpless without using a taser or club.
Yet a male policeman can often just use physical force to subdue an offender.

"Men will always out perform women on these machines on average."
So men do more except when they do less.
