Alors que Nick Kyrgios et Aryna Sabalenka s\u2019af\u00adfron\u00adte\u00adront le 28 d\u00e9cembre prochain \u00e0 Duba\u00ef dans une nouvelle bataille des sexes, qui de mieux que Billie Jean King, partie prenante de ce match exhi\u00adbi\u00adtion si parti\u00adcu\u00adlier, pour en parler\u202f?<\/p>\n
Tout a commenc\u00e9 lors\u00adqu\u2019en 1973, l\u2019an\u00adcien cham\u00adpion am\u00e9ri\u00adcain,\u00a0Bobby Riggs, alors retrait\u00e9 et \u00e2g\u00e9 de 55\u00a0ans, d\u00e9clare publi\u00adque\u00adment que le\u00a0tennis f\u00e9minin\u00a0est si inf\u00e9\u00adrieur au tennis masculin qu\u2019il est capable de battre n\u2019im\u00adporte quelle joueuse en activit\u00e9.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Un d\u00e9fi relev\u00e9 avec succ\u00e8s par Billie Jean King, fonda\u00adtrice de la WTA la m\u00eame ann\u00e9e, qui finira par s\u2019im\u00adposer en cinq sets contre le laur\u00e9at de l\u2019\u00e9di\u00adtion 1939 de Wimbledon. Une autre \u00e9poque et un tout autre contexte pour l\u2019Am\u00e9ricaine, laur\u00e9ate de 39 titres du Grand Chelem dont 12\u202fen simple.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00ab\u202fLa seule simi\u00adli\u00adtude, c\u2019est que l\u2019un est un gar\u00e7on et l\u2019autre une fille. C\u2019est tout. Pour le reste, non, cela n\u2019a rien \u00e0 voir. Notre match concer\u00adnait le chan\u00adge\u00adment social, culturel, l\u00e0 o\u00f9 nous en \u00e9tions en 1973. Ce n\u2019est pas le cas ici. J\u2019esp\u00e8re que ce sera un grand match \u2013 je souhaite \u00e9videm\u00adment que Sabalenka gagne \u2013 mais ce n\u2019est tout simple\u00adment pas la m\u00eame\u00a0chose.\u202f\u00bb<\/strong><\/p>\n Publi\u00e9 le vendredi 12 d\u00e9cembre 2025 \u00e0 17:09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Alors que Nick Kyrgios et Aryna Sabalenka s\u2019af\u00adfron\u00adte\u00adront le 28 d\u00e9cembre prochain \u00e0 Duba\u00ef dans une nouvelle bataille…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":595810,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1415],"tags":[7615,1011,27,4874,60,1467],"class_list":{"0":"post-595809","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tennis","8":"tag-aryna-sabalenka","9":"tag-fr","10":"tag-france","11":"tag-kyrgios","12":"tag-sports","13":"tag-tennis"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@fr\/115709218904802257","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595809","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=595809"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595809\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/595810"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=595809"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=595809"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=595809"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
