In a recent talk with actress Natalie Portman on an Instagram Live, Serena Williams spoke about playing on the center courts.
The 23-time Grand Slam champion is the brightest star of the women's tennis. Serena Williams is always headling the schedules of the center courts. but she said that she doesn't always play there. In a recent Instagram Live with Natalie Portman, she said:
"That's something we have to fight for still in tennis. I'll look at the schedule and there's four men's matches and then two women's matches and then I feel bad, because I'm always one of those women. I literally have said just put me on the second court, so we can have other players have an opportunity on centre court," said Serena Williams.
"Obviously that doesn't go well in the timings, and they're like, 'No, no, no. You need be on centre court,' and I'm like, 'These other women need a chance and they deserve it, they've been working literally their whole lives to have this opportunity. Every year I come back to the same tournaments and I come back with the same arguments," Williams said. "They expect me, so when are we going to make those changes?"
