please, please stop the women players from screaming as they play, it IS SCREAMING not grunting, the men grunt, the women scream and it become so unpleasant to listen to that it is turning fans away. There is no need for this screaming, it is a self-inulgent selfish habbit that has no place on the tennis court. Surely, there must be rules to prevent this annoying interference in an ekegent, otherwise, pleasant sport. Pleae, I beg you, use whatever power (fines etc) is necessary to prevenmt the screaming habit from the women and sometimes the men. You will contginue to lose fans otherwise.
