EDITORS COMMENTS
Champions on and off the court: Billie Jean King and husband Larry King, captured leaving St Georges Hospital in Tooting, London. The photograph was taken on a historic evening, Saturday 8th July 1967. Earlier that day, the remarkable Billie Jean successfully defended her Wimbledon title in the Women's Singles category at the prestigious Wimbledon Tennis Championships. In this candid shot by David Housden from Memory Lane Prints, we witness the couple walking through a hospital corridor after visiting Billie Jean's trainer. Their radiant smiles reflect both relief and joy as they bask in the glory of her triumph. Billie Jean King, known not only for her exceptional tennis skills but also for her tireless advocacy for gender equality in sports, stands tall as an inspiration to women worldwide. Her determination and unwavering spirit have shattered countless barriers throughout her career. Larry King, ever supportive of his wife's endeavors, walks hand-in-hand with pride beside his accomplished partner. Together they epitomize love and solidarity—a true power couple who navigate life's challenges side by side. This print captures a moment frozen in time—an emblematic representation of strength, resilience, and shared success. It serves as a reminder that greatness extends beyond athletic achievements; it lies within individuals who use their platform to make a lasting impact.
