Wimbledon

Ever since my English neighbors introduced me to the joys of eating strawberries and cream while watching Andre Agassi, I've been a huge fan of the Wimbledon tennis tournament. I can barely play tennis myself but I always manage to spend hours watching the tourney every summer.

However, I've always been irked that Wimbledon openly paid its female contestants less than the men. Well yesterday Wimbledon finally entered the 21st century, announcing that women and men will be paid equally.

For those that can't wait until June for their English tennis, you can watch our copy of the movie Wimbledon starring Kirsten Dunst.
