Not really dizzy - the men have their final tomorrow and Djokovic, the winner of today's match is already at a severe disadvantage after waiting for the other, epic, semi-final to finish. I don't think making women look second best is the intention.

The only way they could have prevented this would have been to play both semi's at the same time, but obviously this will never happen.

I am all about equality and equal pay for the same work, but shouldn't the men get paid more for more work at Grand Slams? It's like the men are doing overtime, but get paid for the same as women who did not do overtime.
