In the essay, the Olympic gold medalist also discusses his experience playing with women throughout his life, mixed doubles, and where tennis stands amongst other professional sports. 。
"Female sportswomen rarely get as much air-time as men, and there are still not enough women in the top jobs in sport, but things are improving," he wrote. "No other sport is doing as much as tennis, and it's great to be part of a sport that is leading the way...Hopefully tennis can put pressure on other sports to do the same." 。

"In general, I think the future is positive," he said. "We've got more female role models than ever before, more female commentators than ever before and more people championing the rights for women in sport than ever before." 。
