BBC - why has Wimbledon dropped 'Miss'?
I just read about this change at Wimbledon which apparently brings the referential 'etiquette' for women players in line with men. I hadn't realised that men were no longer 'Mr', but I find the fact that women were being 'missed' and 'mrsed' while men weren't being 'mistered' far more surprising than this change.
I'm also confused by the news that umpires still say Miss or Mrs and no mention of whether they call the men 'Mr'.
