Happy Thursday folks, we have a bit of a special episode for you today! In light of Katie Taylor’s comments about her desire to play Croke Park and the acknowledgement that were she a male fighter, she’d be a multi-multi-millionaire by now, the Word On The Street crew looked into the gender pay gap in sport, with a particular focus on tennis as an example of a sport where active change has been made. We chat to Racquet magazine co-founder Caitlin Thompson about Billie Jean King’s legacy, best of 3 v best of 5, and much more!
