Sydney Sweeney’s rage-bait sports betting ad, the AI video of Holly Rowe, Zverev’s US Open win, and Aaron Rodgers made it a horrible week for women in sports

Madeline and Charlotte are back with another episode of Sports Gossip, in which they dissect a very bad week for women in sports. First, a few fun things: Taylor Swift was at Travis Kelce’s home-opener (in which the Chiefs beat the Broncos) with…Tom Cruise? Also, Widow’s Bay won a bunch of Emmy’s, which isn’t sports, but sort of is. The US women won their fifth-straight FIBA World Cup gold medal, and the content coming out of it from Angel Reese and all the players was great. Okay, time for the bad stuff. Elena Rybakina won the US Open, and there are some not-great things going on with her coach, Stefano Vukov. Alexander Zverev also won the US Open, and multiple women have accused him of domestic violence, yet the ATP has done nothing about it. Texas quarterback Arch Manning publicly laughed at an AI-generated clip of his head coach, Steve Sarkisian, slapping ESPN reporter Holly Rowe. And the actress Sydney Sweeney appeared in a very sexist ad for a sports betting company in which she has equity. The gals talk about where we are as a society, and how all of these things are related.
