True, Williams has had her controversial moments, but if her tennis was all that did the talking then she would be the sports highest paid athlete.
In 1973, Billy Jean King proved that women can outclass men at tennis when she defeated Bobby Riggs in straight sets 6-4, 6-3, 6-3.
Women's tennis has come a long way since then. However, something in tennis still needs to change so that Williams is afforded the same opportunities as Federer has been.
