Ms Wills will be ‘in line’ to make next season’s squad for the New York Lizards. Isn’t that nice? Presumably, in the interests of gender equality, men will now be eligible to play for women’s sports teams? With the inevitable improvements in performance, that would surely go a long way to making women’s sports more watchable, although I wouldn’t want to extend the principle to women’s beach volleyball. Some sports are fine just as they are.
