The BBC has been accused of leering on female tennis stars by featuring countless crotch shots during their Wimbledon coverage. Sue Simmonds said: "I think shots are replayed in slow motion just for the knickers and buttocks." Venus Williams accused tournament officials of being sexist after she was forced to play on court 18 despite being a five-time champion. While Susan Mooney commented: "@BBCSPORT no need for close up vagina shots in Wimbledon coverage." We're missing those rivalries and the bigger box office pulls in women's tennis.
