The Battle of the Sexes on now! BBC4

[gamescompendium]

Documentary about the match between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs. Suppose to be fab.

I've just searched through FWR to see if any had started a thread. I've just watched this and loved it!

BJK and several other women players formed their own tour and fought for years to get equal pay.

Interesting note at the end of the doc, women players didn't get equal pay at Wimbledon until 2007 and tennis is the only sport where women get paid as much as men.
