Sabalenka is more man than woman? :shock:
As a heterosexual man speaking.... what rubbish. She is very much a woman.

In cultures like the US (before Trump!) nobody would dare to ssy it..in less PC cultures like India and Russia, people do say it
Well, okay, if this was in an Indian or Russian newspaper, I'd buy it more easily. Not in The Washington Post. Of course misogyny exists here, but I think this interpretation is a reach, personally. That was just my impression. Like we just can't appreciate what she is - extremely powerful and dominating - without it being an insult. Whoever wrote the headline (often not the story writer, but the producing editor) was a tennis dum-dum who doesn't realize that women practice with men all the time. They thought it was unusual and framed it incorrectly.
