On this special Dropshot Edition of the podcast you'll hear from WTA founder Billie Jean King and 18-time major champion Chris Evert. King and Evert held an impromptu press conference last week at the Miami Open to discuss the issue of Equal Prize Money and equality. King and Evert, along with current WTA player Nicole Gibbs, discussed their reaction to the comments, which triggered an unfortunate avalanche of discussion regarding the merits of equal prize money at tennis' biggest tournaments. The 45 minute conversation was educational, enlightening, and inspiring, and given the fan interest in the press conference, I thought I'd just post the discussion in full. Here are Billie Jean King, Chris Evert, and Nicole Gibbs: And that's a wrap on Episode 10 of the WTA Insider Podcast. You can subscribe to the podcast on iTunes or on any podcast app of your choice and reviews are always helpful, so if you like what you've heard so far, leave us one.
