1926ref. 164521926. Wills Helen. Time: The Weekly News-Magazine July 26 1926 cover issue featuring the American tennis champion during the year of her celebrated encounter with Suzanne Lenglen and her emergence as one of the most visible women athletes of the interwar period. Wills ultimately won 19 major singles titles including eight Wimbledon championships as well as Olympic gold medals in singles and doubles at Paris in 1924; her eight Wimbledon singles titles remained the women's record until Martina Navratilova surpassed it in 1990. The present cover therefore belongs to the period in which Wills was becoming not simply a successful competitor but a nationally recognizable female sports figure offering evidence of the expanding place of women athletes within American mass media and celebrity culture. Time: The Weekly News-Magazine. Vol. VIII No. 4. New York: Time Publishing Company July 26 1926. Complete issue; pagination and dimensions not supplied. Helen Wills appears prominently on the cover. Earlier that year on February 16 at Cannes she faced France's Suzanne Lenglen in their only singles meeting a contest so heavily publicized that Time compared its attention to that surrounding the Locarno conference. Lenglen won 6-3 8-6 but Wills's performance against the dominant French champion further established her international standing. The issue thus captures Wills at a pivotal point between her early American successes and the sustained dominance that began the following year when she won her first Wimbledon singles title. Wills's later career underscores the historical weight of this early cover appearance. She went on to dominate women's tennis through much of the late 1920s and 1930s and in 1933 she defeated Phil Neer then ranked eighth among American men in a San Francisco exhibition match an unusual mixed-sex contest four decades before the much-publicized Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs match of 1973. The 1926 Time cover therefore documents both the media construction of a female athletic celebrity and the broader cultural visibility of women's competitive sport during the interwar years. No specific defects are supplied; overall very good. A strong contemporary periodical source for the study of Helen Wills women in sport tennis history and the representation of female athletic achievement in American popular media. unknown books

2015ill., br. Serena Jameka Williams, nata a Saginaw nel Michigan il 26 settembre 1981, è una delle tenniste più forti di tutti i tempi, al vertice della classifica mondiale per oltre 220 settimane. Lo divenne per la prima volta nel 2002 e in modo continuato dal 2013. In carriera ha vinto sinora 34 prove del Grande Slam, di cui 19 in singolare, 13 in doppio, sempre in coppia con la sorella Venus, e 2 in doppio misto. Ha conquistato inoltre 5 WTA Tour Championships e 4 medaglie d'oro alle Olimpiadi, 1 in singolare e 3 in doppio. È inoltre l'unica tennista ad aver completato il Career Golden Slam in singolare e in doppio. Nel 2015 ha vinto per la sesta volta gli Australian Open, battendo in finale Maria Sharapova, Per la 33enne statunitense, numero 1 del tennis mondiale, è il 65/o titolo in carriera, il 19/o dello Slam. Giocatrice che riesce a coniugare una grande passione per la moda e il cinema con un tennis dalla potenza inaudita, Serena ci descrive i match che le hanno cambiato la vita, come la finale del 2001 a Indian Wells vinta contro Kim Klijsters, in cui fu oggetto di fischi razzisti; la sua vita nei sobborghi di Los Angeles, con gli allenamenti di tennis interrotti dalle sparatorie; i suoi infortuni, come quello procuratosi su una pista da ballo; le sue sfortunate vicende familiari, come l'omicidio dell'amata sorella "Tunde", o sentimentali.

2017br. Negli anni della giovinezza e ben prima di diventare il più grande innovatore della letteratura americana contemporanea, David Foster Wallace si è a lungo dedicato al tennis, entrando nelle classifiche regionali e sfiorando la fama che ha saputo costruirsi altrove, e con ben altri esiti. Il tennis è rimasta una delle sue grandi passioni, tradotta nelle pagine di "Infinite Jest" e "Tennis, TV, trigonometria e tornado". Ma soprattutto in due saggi, qui raccolti insieme per la prima volta, e dedicati rispettivamente a Roger Federer e a un'epica edizione degli U.S. Open. Ma anche a mille altre cose: lo scontro omerico tra il talento e la forza bruta, tra la bellezza apollinea di una volée perfetta e gli interessi economici "sporchi" che ruotano intorno a ogni sport. Il tutto, nella lingua immaginifica e inimitabile che i fan di David Foster Wallace hanno imparato da tempo a conoscere e amare.
