#OTD 1957: Althea Gibson Wins Wimbledon! 1st Black Tennis Player to win a Grand Slam!

By Miriam Kleiman, Public Affairs

NARA ID 58260. “From 143rd Street in Harlem to the center court in Wimbledon is about as far as one can travel.” —Althea Gibson

Althea Gibson, daughter of South Carolina sharecroppers, grew up in Harlem and became a champion of the very segregated sport of tennis. Gibson was the first Black tennis player to compete and win at both Wimbledon and the U.S. Nationals (Arthur Ashe was the 1st Black man to win at Wimbledon when he defeated Jimmy Connors 8 years later, in 1975). Eventually, she would play—and beat—all other top women’s tennis players worldwide, while shattering class and racial barriers!

Gibson, L, on the Wheaties box in 2001. Serena Williams, R, in 2019.

"In 2001, Wheaties paid homage to a true champion and an icon by putting her on the cover of a Wheaties Box. Althea Gibson was the FIRST Black Woman tennis player to be on the box. Today, I am honored to be the second. I have dreamt of this since I was a young woman and it’s an honor to join the ranks of some of America’s most decorated athletes. I hope my image on this iconic orange box will inspire the next generation of girls and athletes to dream big.” —Serena Williams

wimbledon 2022 is some kind of joke. it was immediately clear that everything would be different with this helmet, as the Russians and Belarusians had just been removed. but after everything that happened on it, the "worst competition in history" award definitely goes to it

Australian Open: Hsieh-Mertens Pair Battles Into Women s Doubles Final

WTA Doubles World No: The no.2 seeds Begian-Taipei pair Hsieh Su-wei and Elise Mertens booked their spot in the Australian Open women's doubles final with a gripping semifinal 7-5, 1-6, 6-3 win over No.3 seeds Czech-Aussie duo Storm Hunter and Katerina Siniakova on Thursday. Hsieh and Mertens took 2 hours and 35 minutes to overcome Hunter and Siniakova in an engrossing match involving four players who have all held the WTA Doubles World No.1 ranking here at Margaret Court Arena. Mertens is a win away from her fourth Grand Slam title in women's doubles, and her second at the Australian Open. She teamed with Aryna Sabalenka to win the title Down Under in 2021, according to WTA. On the other hand, Hsieh has won six Grand Slam titles in women's doubles -- including two last year -- but she has yet to take the title in Melbourne. Her best Australian Open result is a runner-up showing alongside Barbora Strycova in 2020. Hsieh and Mertens will face either No.11 seeds Lyudmyla Kichenok and Jelena Ostapenko or No.4 seeds Gabriela Dabrowski and Erin Routliffe, last year's US Open champions. Read the full article
