  • Chris was who got me interested in tennis. I loved her. I dunno why the women's

    game interested me more than the men's, but it did then, and it does now. Although with so many of the name players not playing, the women's game seems to be losing a

    bit of its marquee value. Chris was always my favorite, until Monica and the Williams sisters came along. I used to LOVE how Chris would beat players 6-0 or 6-1, and act like she hadn't really done much, while the other player looked demolished!

  • wow compare this to li na and schiavone's performance at roland garros today. Women just hit harder and better now.

  • @geoffybellofiore well give today's women wooden rackets and lets see how they'd do against these all time greats!

  • Videos like this really should be treasured as they show the real talent that Ladies Tennis had in the 1960s and '70s. Thank you so much for posting.

  • ya same here wanna see evonne in 71 and wut happen other than chrissie's lob over evonne to win wimby in 76

  • they probably were sucking up to chris cuz they knew chris was the queen of american tennis and would look better than those dykes. chris to them would represent the tour without any lip. billie talks too much she get on my last nerve

  • ya i meant her losses not her losses from evonne, sorry was rushing

  • no, it was after BJK whipped a young Chris. Evonne was in the locker room when King, Casals and all the nasty bitches like Nancy Richey Gunter and Virginia Wade came in and acted like BJK was just elected President. Evonne saw Chris crying badly and thats when she went down and said' dont wurry'. Chris always remembered it. I often wander then why BJK and Casals plotted against Evonne at the 76 Wimbledon. They were all there, in the players box during the evert/cawley final sucking up to Chris

  • in evonne's book she said that chris took her loss to evonne really bad and evonne told her that it's just a game. evonne is really SUNSHINE SUPERGIRL

  • i loooove these videos you post Mr J. Thanks :)

  • Chris said in her book that Evonne touched her on the arm afer a match when King, Casals and the other bitches were taunting Chris and Evonne said 'dont wurry its only a tennis match' Goolagong was a one in a million, thanks god she was around then

  • Evert called them "bitches""??

  • @kangaroosbraun I'd be curious to see that in the book, as I know King was an earlier supporter of Chris Evert. (In fact, I saw them talking together at the US Open in 1973.) I've read that King told the other players who gave Evert a hard time to lay off her. In essence, King told them Evert was going to bring in more fans and put more money in everyone's pocket.

  • Evonne, will be 58 on the 31st. She won the aussie four times, french once, and wimbledon twice, and a finalist four times at the US Open until she got the last laugh in the early 80's.

  • Thanks for uploading. Do you by any chance have video of Evonne Goolagong winning Wimbledon over KIng (semis) and Court (final) in 1971?

  • i think i do bill but its in black and white im afraid.

  • Great. Do you plan to post?

  • of course eventually but i am a very busy man,i dont just collect tennis i have to go through all my video tapes and im transfering them all to dvd and also have to work on improving the video.

  • Wonderful crisp video

  • Amazing...again!  Thank you for posting these as you do. They are appreciated.
