She didn't switch to doubles after stopping playing in singles : she had already won many titles in the doubles, famously with Pam Shriver at Wimbledon. Please get your facts right!Also : what she lost in endorsement due to her coming out is a price nobody should be made to pay. Many players earn from sponsorships huge amounts of money, often many times what they earn in winning.Thank you iaia Martina Navratilova came out in 1981, not 1991.

Isn't that a bit prejudice?? Why exactly does the word "lesbian" have to be in a headline regarding Mauresmo's win over Henin-Hardenne at Wimbledon? Isn't that a bit prejudice??
