Who is JPJ, aka Twitter handle @AEKDB1?
Is this the ghost of Bobby Riggs? Or somebody just channeling Riggs from beyond?
Whoever he is, JPJ is rekindling memories of sport’s great “Battle of the Sexes” match in the ‘70s.
In response to this reporter’s tweet about how the PGA Tour is giving its players up to $75,000 in COVID-19 sick pay while the LPGA will only be providing $5,000 to members and caddies who get sick at tournaments, JPJ fired a shot heard around the women’s game.
He ignited outrage with a tweet responding to the PGA Tour/LPGA thread’s growing conversation about the financial disparities between the men’s and women’s games.
