Town & Country: 20 Best Tennis Books
“One of T&C’s most anticipated books for summer 2023, Sally Jacobs tells the story of tennis trailblazer Althea Gibson in this remarkable biography. Gibson was the first Black player to win a Grand Slam title (she would go on to win 11), and she would pave the way for generations of players, like Serena Williams and Sloane Stephens. Also, after she retired from tennis, she became the first Black player on the Women’s Professional Golf Tour. No big deal.”
