John McEnroe says he won't apologize to Serena Williams

Mr. McEnroe needs to fact check his[story] with regard to women of color who played professional tennis and the news station anchors should’ve corrected him.

Facts: With their combined numbers of tennis grand-slam singles titles and grand slam numbers in doubles, few could deny that Venus and Serena Williams are the greatest sibling act in professional sports in the modern era. But they weren’t the first women of color and sisters to dominate the sport of tennis. That accolade goes to the Peters sisters, Roumania and Margaret, who, from the late 1930s to early 1950s, dominated the doubles events held by the American Tennis Association, the nation’s oldest black sports organization to include women. The career of the Peters sisters casts a fresh light on the rarely explored world of women’s sports in the segregated Jim Crow era.

Then there was Ms. Ora Mae Washington, once known as the ”Queen of Tennis” From 1924 to 1937, Ms. Washington played in the American Tennis Association (ATA); and,

We need not forget Ms. Althea Gibson (1927-2003). The Venus and Serena Williams before there were Venus and Serena Williams.
Ms. Gibson was the first woman of color to win a Grand Slam tennis event—she captured the singles crown at the French Championships (now the French Open) in 1957.

Let us never forget those who came before who paved the way for future generations.

Lol. One of the handful of moments, Is which are growing since the recent election, That shows Norah is a piece of work. Is let alone a lot of media.
Good for john... What's wrong with what he said?. Is even Serena said she couldn't compete against The top male tennis player.. acknowledging there is a difference

Serena on her best day would not win a set against the best boys high school player in America.

It was necessary because it is true.

Mac was spot on

Serena is on a talk show talking about how she would be crushed 6-0 6-0 6-0 in about 10 minutes by a leading male player, but she sent a nasty message to John about his comments.

Williams brothers.

We still have freedom of speech in this country, but we just have to apologize for half the things we say apparently because somebody doesn’t like it or somebody is offended over almost everything. Some people are so damn sensitive and act like children on a playground.

Typical Delusional Left CBS. All morons

his opinion so what! apologies? for what?

Martina licked every woman she ever played.

That would fix everything even with trans athletes just let everyone play against each other whoever is the best gets the spots

Since when do people need to apologize for stating objective facts?

Why is Gale always the dumbest individual on any panel?

I see one man trying to have a logical conversation with 3 females

That panel are either deluded or they have been told to ask stupid questions!
Either way,
I've now have, even more respect for John McEnroe for standing his ground against stupidity!

My only problem with McEnroe here is that his answers were meandering and he could’ve gotten straight to the point more directly.

Just stumbled on this Interview today and could not believe how Pathetic the CBS team was for it's POMPOUS, unprepared, and unprofessional questions in trying to humiliate John McEnroe! Charlie Rose and that unconscionable HACK Nora O'Donnell have obviously NEVER watched Professional Tennis, Amateur Tennis, College Tennis, or High School Tennis! Do your Homework next time!! No wonder the Media gets has such a BAD image, and reputation!!

The Karen is still waiting for her apology

There is the Universal Tennis Ranking…..John is totally correct. This is similar to the “I’m not a biologist”by an educated, smart woman.

They want the goat to include men and women but when it comes to actual playing, they want them to be seperate. Make it make sense

She agreed with him. She said Andy Murray would beat her 6-0 6-0

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 look at her looking at her idiot cards for her que

Why would he apologize for a true statement. They just like hearing their words coming out of everyone else’s mouths…

I dont even think she wanted an apology or cares. Serena even said mens tennis is completely different. This is stupid

Wow John Macc Erony .

Norah O’Donnell needs to apologize. Rude and wrong

If u want an apology then beat the 700th ranked guy otherwise stfu

I wonder if Charlie Rose apologized to the 8 women who accused him of sexual misconduct?

Serena was pregnant. How does a man get pregnant. She has breast and a woman body. Why do y'all call her a man???

If the men and women played together there would only be men in the professional league thats just a fact

He's factually correct but I think sports is more so about the effort and relative skill, rather than just showing off something youre born with.

Sports is primarily storytelling, and if you just want to see the best performance possible, might as well watch a perfect robot playing. People care for competitiveness, determination, and being the best. Men's and women's sports shouldn't be combined, but just saying men's sports is superior outright isnt correct.

She wouldn't even be ranked

I respect this so much, he doesn’t let himself get bullied by the attitude of the hosts. «Would you like to apologize»🤦‍♂️He’s just stating facts, no bad intentions at all.

This is actually nothing to do with Serena, she said herself men are more powerful and she would get beaten by any male player in the top 700 or whatever, it’s these stupid reporters. There is no shame in admitting it, it’s just a simple fact that men are naturally more athletic, that’s why men’s and women’s sports are kept separate l

People dont like the truth.

Women and men are different

McEnroe: 2+2=4
Media: How dare you!

The world is so soft. Nothing he said is wrong.

Hes right

Yeah he did answer his question

Let’s straighten it out. How about the four Grand Slams—men's vs women's—each year?

He actually gave her a lot of credit by saying she would be 700th having not even scored on the 600th.

This was the moment they decided to let trans women into sports.

Hearing Serena was born a man and her body index is of a man her hips are not above the belly mens are below i just learned this so i don't know but will be sad if true

She said it herself years later, Look it up!

I think Serena agrees with him 🤷🏼‍♀️

Serena is the greatest female player ever but not the greatest tennis player ever. That is a fact otherwise like John said, combine it then that way even trans players can compete on a level playing field.

Even if John said something insulting, I don't think it would be appropriate to say "would you like to apologize" like the host did
