Who cares if she'd be 700 or 500th in the world if she competed against men?

The point McEnroe made is entirely accurate: She's been amazing against other women. She'd be less than pedestrian against men. In fact she played a guy ranked 203 at the time, and when she was a lot younger, as in almost 20 years ago. Here's his report:

That last sentence is telling: "it never happened". Only it did.

This whole kerfuffle is the result of that stupid reporter asking why it should be qualified that Serena is the greatest woman player, isn't she the really the greatest?  Appallingly ignorant and McEnroe had to set her straight.
