I don’t blame men for not wanting to play her. It’s a lose-lose situation. Whereas for her, it’s win-big win.

Whatever happened to the simple basic right of freedom of association? The men shouldn’t even have to give any further reason for not wanting to play with her other than “I don’t want to”. This is ridiculous and the kind of “mentality” (no brain) that brought us unisex bathrooms and trannies being allowed to use any restroom they choose, the better for your children to be exposed early in life to perversion.

I think she’s got a point. Either female players need to be specifically barred from the competition, or players need to be penalized for ducking her. This middle ground of letting her participate but allowing would-be competitors to ignore her just doesn’t seem right.

a lawsuit to get most men
to play this woman...

similarly, most Congresscritters have invoked wives and God to avoid telling the truth about the crappy bills they pass.

I don't believe it's a good thing for me to be seen out playing a female other than my wife in casual matches

Huh? It's a tennis match, not a motel-room tryst.

“Another said he heard I made people run too much.”

That's called tactics. Do these people play patty-cake across the net? I used to just love to get the big basketball and football jocks out on the court where this (formerly) 5'10” 155 lb guy could make fools out of them.

They really should rethink that title.

So a really good male should then be allowed to join the women’s ladder and clean up every year. Fair is fair.

I now formally challenge her to a name-writing-in-the-snow contest. If she fails to accept I will sue.

Sport rules should be sex-neutral. Let all compete and let the better player win.

Let her have her way...As a matter of fact, eliminate both men’s and women’s leagues and only have one league for everyone.

LOL, men don’t want to lose to a woman.

You’re a loser no matter who beats you. You’re a bigger loser if you refuse a challenge.

If they have a penalty rule it should apply to everyone.

Aside from the lawsuit business, what is wrong with people? IF I played tennis I would play her every chance I got. If she is that good then she can help you play better. If she is personally a jerk, then that is different. Just say that straight out: “I would play you, but I can’t stand you.”
