Cedric P @CedricParker Jan 13 Having just watched the first episode, I can’t wait to watch the rest! It covered the period from just before South Africa got television (in 1975) until Arthur Ashe and Billie-Jean King revolutionised the game by breaking the glass ceilings for black players’ achievements and women’s prize money. The combination of archive footage and current interviews added a fascinating dimension to the saga of one of the most exciting eras in tennis. See more Read all reviews
