Margaret Court and Virginia Wade defeated Rosie Casals and Billie Jean King in the final of the 1975 U.S. Open women's doubles. Part 2 shows the third set's 12th game and tiebreak.
@Ariamaluum I agree but this is typical of King's unsportsman's like behaviour all through her career. She also rubbished Court's fantastic grand slam achievements by saying she didn't play lots of the slams in the earlier years. She travelled to Oz for Court's 40th anniversary of the Grand Slam and chose her words so that she didn't pay her any compliments at all. Court who was a much better overall player than King and most gracious.
Great Video! I like when the announcers (Pat Summerall and Tony Trabert) say the winners get $4500 dollars. That was a lot of money in 1975 for a final.
I've heard Margaret Court is planning a comeback. Is there any truth to this rumour?
