Pivotal History Makers
Description
The TennisWorthy Podcast revisits Season 2, featuring some of our favorite topics and legends. In this episode, we hear about making a different kind of history from Hall of Famers Ken Rosewall, Cliff Drysdale, Rosie Casals, Judy Tegart-Dalton and Ann Jones.
Three of the interviews in Season 2 featured five history makers from that pivotal time in the history of tennis, the sport going open in 1968, effectively the professionals and amateurs coming together in the same competitions. And the five voices you're going to hear now were all involved in that dramatic period between 1968 and '73 when tennis took the steps that enabled it to become the global professional discipline and spectacle it is today.
