French Open will award equal pay « on: March 16, 2007, 08:55:18 PM »

French Open officials have announced that they will award equal prize money to men and women from this year.

The tournament has been isolated after Wimbledon joined the United States and Australian Opens in opting to pay equal money across the board in all events.

The event had previously offered the same amount of money only to the champions and not in earlier rounds.

The final domino falls.  It was only a matter of time.

This was expected and it's disappointing.
