About this ebook

Sports are an area where you need to be physically and mentally fit. There, feelings or thoughts do not show much value. But by editing the pages of history, a sports heroine appeared there. American female player Billie Jean King emerged by proving her excellence in tennis. She followed her ancestry and got into sports. Her parents and brother are experts in the field of sports.

Once upon a time, women were silent in sports. With the arrival of Billie, she became the voice of change. She also became a voice and face for women’s struggles in that area. As her name “King” suggests, she has transformed into the head of women in sports. Among her advances, she brought revolutionary changes through the “Battle of the Sexes”, a challenge with a senior player like Bobby Riggs. In the future, Marilyn Barnett, who was with her, turned against Billie. It was a huge blow to the King. The mental strength she got in sports training brought her out of all problems.

Billie Jean had a life of many “firsts”. Wimbledon, Grand Slam Titles, U.S. Open, etc are just a few of her achievements. Many organizations like the Women’s Sports Foundation, Women’s Tennis Association, etc. were born under Billie’s leadership.

This is a book written by combining the most important moments and people of Billie Jean King’s personal and professional tennis life. Billie Jean Moffitt’s father Bill Moffitt, mother Betty Moffitt, brother Randy Moffitt, and ex-husband Larry King all come here as characters. The things and people that changed her life such as “The Battle of the Sexes”, Bobby Riggs, and Marilyn Barnett, are also introduced to the readers through this. The life of a woman sports player with a strong, assertive voice can be an example or inspiration to many.
