Venus
Williams was a vocal advocate for pay equality at the tournament.
The day before the 2005 Wimbledon final, Williams says she asked
Grand Slam board members to “think about their daughters and their
wives and sisters. How would they like them to be treated?”
Less
than two years later, in 2007 Wimbledon announced that men and women
would receive the same prize money in all rounds of the tournament.
So we share Women first and then men champions
Why have we
shared Wimbledon winners ?
It is right if you may ask following question
In social, health, climate issue related website which focuses on
key stakeholders like Government, Corporates, NGOs, Media .... why
should we select Wimbledon winners.
Our answer is
clear
Wimbledon winners become celebrities and they have great role to
play beyond Tennis because they can play tennis when they are young,
but as they grow older, they dont play tennis.
They should
not play with life of themselves and others.
They should use their celebrity status to help others.
We will give 10 examples of Wimbledon winners helping others.
