A Spotlight in Sports - Althea Gibson
Althea Gibson tennis star remembered in Black History Month.
Although Serena and Venus Williams may encounter remnants of the racism their predecessors faced it was those beginnings of breaking barriers that set apart the early day athletes. It was the likes of Jackie Robinson, Jack Johnson, Joe Louis, Arthur Ashe and Althea Gibson that bore the brunt of hate, racism, and segregation at its peak.
Overcoming the obstacles both on and off the field of play to become the purest form of champions the world has known. And while some lived a life better than the race they represented many died in the same conditions they were born.
In the days of Althea Gibson, a.k.a. the Jackie Robinson of tennis, there were no large purses for winning or no commercial endorsements to line her pockets. It was the ability to dominate in a sport and love of the game that distinguished Gibson as one of the greatest in the world of tennis.
Gibson was the first African-American woman to become a world tennis professional and the first to win a grand slam back in 1956. She was the top ranked U.S. player in 1957 and 1958 and was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame in 1971.
After suffering a stroke in 1992 fans from around the world sent Gibson gifts said to have been over a million dollars in cash to help her survive. Gibson died of respiratory failure in September of 2003 in New Jersey.
Gibson was among a number of athletes from generations gone by that never earned the big dollars like the Williams sisters but certainly earned the admiration and respect for her achievements and contributions to sports and black history.
