She was 8 week into her pregnancy when she won it. That's still the stages where you know for sure you're pregnant (first trimester) I'm not to undermine her achievement, just giving insight.
Also, why would a woman's achievement force males to "shut up about everything forever"? Not like we can attempt to win the grand slam while pregnant :/
8 weeks is well into the first trimester, you definitely know, and probably most significantly, you are into the hell that is "morning" sickness, which is really the only thing I can think of that would have hampered her ability. I cannot fathom why it should overrule all male achievements.

Someone I know is like 23 weeks pregnant and only found out last week
Don’t ask me how
Its rare but it happens, especially if they were told they wouldn't be able to get pregnant. I had a friend no find out until she was 7 and a half months because both she and the father had been told they couldn't have kids, plus her build and the fact the baby was small because she smoked prevented her from having a normal baby bump.

No but she had no reason to assume she was infertile, and how do you not notice your period suddenly dissapearing for months
Some women have very irregular periods, so it isn't difficult to understand how a pregnancy can go unnoticed. A friend of mine has her period only about 4 times a year. It's hell to plan trips!
Guest is right. Some women have periods that are 2 weeks apart, then go two or three months, so they don't/can't keep track. And if they also don't suffer serious or prolonged morning sickness most of the other symptoms aren't very obvious. There was even an entire series called "I didn't know I was pregnant" that covers numerous cases, including women who'd already had kids but because no 2 pregnancies are necessarily the same they didn't realize
Gal Gadot filmed 2 very physically demanding mivies as Wonder Woman while pregnant, going back and doing reshoots while HEAVILY PREGNANT, but that doesn't automatically make her better than her male costars (other than the guy who couldn't shave his friggin mustache so they made his closeups unwatchable)

Me: Some internet post told me to shut up about everything forever.
