With one of the themes of #IWD2020 being equal coverage of men's and women's sports, we found that 69% of Brits support this in principle. However, in practice, only 36% of these supporters would back it if it means less coverage of the men's games yougov.co.uk/topics/sport/a… Image
It is clear that the public find women's sport increasingly appealing. On top of the 20% of Brits who have always been interested, a further 19% say they are now more interested than a few years ago - although interest is rising faster among men yougov.co.uk/topics/sport/a… Image
As things stand, only men's and women's athletics have viewing parity, with 45% of Brits saying they watch either sport. Tennis is close (43% watch men's tennis, 39% women's), while rugby has the greatest gap (42% men's, 11% women's) yougov.co.uk/topics/sport/a… Image
