And why don't they go up to 5 sets?

Equal pay for equal work?

Think of it as equal pay but with men doing unpaid overtime.

They only recently started getting equal pay, IIRC. I've also seen talk about turning the grand slams into BO3 for the men which I think would suck so it's equal for the men and women.

Ikr. It's not like they play against men so they don't need any advantage or disadvantage. It's women against women.

At least make the quarter finals and up 5 sets because I sometimes watch the womens grand slam finals and they can be over in less than an hour.

Yeah its pretty embarrassing when the men have a 5 hour epic after the women had a 50 minute blowout the day before.

Ive always been curious as to why after all these years, women dont play 5 sets as well.
