McEnroe was out of line, making a comment like that that forced her to respond (although her calling the statement 'factually incorrect' was obviously wrong). Unnecessary, even with so many people's current down-is-up mindset.

If one really needs to compare athletic accomplishment across genders, in my view the only way to do so is with relative depth of field as the foremost consideration. As opposed to absolute strength, which is dumb. People who do that must also consider every single player in their local midget hockey league better than almost every single player in the peewee league.
