EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the elegance and grace of Suzanne Lenglen, the French tennis sensation of the 1920s, also known as "La Divine" by the French press. The image, taken in 1925 during her time at the Riviera, showcases Lenglen's focused yet playful demeanor as she gazes off into the distance with a slight smile playing on her lips. Her signature headband, a distinctive accessory that became synonymous with her on-court presence, sits neatly atop her short bobbed hair. Lenglen's impact on the sport of tennis during the 1920s was immense, as she dominated the women's game with her powerful strokes and unmatched skill. She won an impressive 31 Grand Slam titles throughout her career, including a record-breaking six consecutive French Championships. This photograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of Suzanne Lenglen, who not only excelled on the court but also challenged societal norms by demanding equal treatment and recognition for women in sports. Her influence extended beyond tennis, inspiring generations of athletes and shaping the way we view women in sports today. The image is a beautiful reminder of the rich history of tennis and the remarkable women who have shaped its legacy. With her timeless style and unwavering determination, Suzanne Lenglen continues to be an inspiration to all those who aspire to greatness both on and off the court.
