The authors prove that steady periodic two-dimensional rotational gravity water waves with a monotone surface profile between troughs and crests are symmetric about the crest. Such a result holds true regardless the vorticity distribution. The main breakthrough idea employed by the authors to establish such a result is to map the fluid domain via a hodograph transform into a fixed rectangle.
