- I am under the impression that other than players, family members/entourage
- members are allowed in - though I don't think opposite sex goes where the
- female pros are actually dressing/showering. I recall that at Wimbledon, past
- champions are allowed in, thus Chris Evert wearing two hats [past champion/TV
- commentator] does have access to the players. To be perfectly clear, only
- past female champs are allowed in, thus Johnny Mac or JC, though past champs,
- would not be allowed into the female pros locker room.
-
- Tournaments generally have an interview area, where, after a player has had
- time to shower, calm down, etc. is interviewed. Other sports could learn from
- this.
