EDITORS COMMENTS
This iconic print captures a historic moment in tennis history as Arthur Ashe, an African American trailblazer, shakes hands with the umpire after defeating Jimmy Connors in the 1975 Wimbledon final. The match was a thrilling four-set battle that showcased Ashe's exceptional skill and determination on the court. Arthur Robert Ashe Jr. , born on July 10,1943, was not only an extraordinary athlete but also a symbol of racial progress and equality. He broke barriers by becoming the first black player selected for the United States Davis Cup team and remains to this day the only black man to have won singles titles at Wimbledon, the US Open, or the Australian Open. Retiring from professional tennis in 1980, Ashe achieved numerous accolades throughout his career. In 1968 he was ranked World No. 1 by Harry Hopman and later again in 1975 by Lance Tingay of The Daily Telegraph and World Tennis Magazine. His highest ranking according to ATP computer rankings was No. 2 in May 1976. This photograph is a testament to Arthur Ashe's legacy as both an exceptional sportsman and a civil rights advocate who used his platform to promote social change. It serves as a reminder of his groundbreaking achievements during a time when diversity in professional sports was still limited. Memory Lane Prints presents this image from July 5th, 1975 - capturing an unforgettable moment that will forever be etched into tennis history.
