Yes. Women’s. Mizzou doesn’t do men’s.
I don’t want to knock on men’s tennis, I’m actually a fan, but it simply makes no sense as a D1 sport. D1 men’s tennis does nothing for the sport itself or for the schools sponsoring it. All it does is lock out a title9 wrestling or hockey team.

I don't even know what you mean by "does nothing for the sport itself," but you can say the same about wrestling.

Not sure what this means. There have more pros who have chosen college tennis in recent years. Ben Shelton being a prime example. It’s very fun to see the usually individual sport in the team aspect in college tennis. 6 matches going on at once.

Great college tennis matches where the crowd is into are a great time. Just cause you don’t have it at Mizzou doesn’t mean it’s a worthless college sport
