And that's probably the reason why there was no WTA coverage - e.g., no Williams sisters and no Sharapova. But think there's still interesting stories there with the kids (e.g., Safina, Radwanska, Wozniacki, Szavay, etc); especially with the upsets. I'd rather they just come out and say "advertisers only pay for ATP tennis . . . we're trying to change things, but it may take some time," than falsely advertise that we're going to see everything and then we become upset that instead it's 22 hours devoted to the ATP (w/o even a mention of the women's draw - like they don't exist); to me, that's even more insulting and disturbing that the WTA tour would allow that to continue.
