I think this “pay difference” is largely due to the fact that 10-15 years ago, women wouldn’t be even playing sport professionally, if at all. The popularity of women’s sport has taken off over the last 5 years as it transitioned from semi professional to professional. The wages and pay will continue to rise.
I think the only realistic way to look at it is if you have 2 identical people, with same/similar education, experience and ability.
Sport wise, I don’t think anybody could really argue that women are as good as the males skill wise.
