In the movie "Battle of the Sexes" I saw recently they recreated a historic moment from 1970 in women's tennis when 9 players defied the USLTA to accept $1 to become pros and play in a womans' only tournament in Houston. This led to the formation of the WTA in 1973

Clockwise from top left Valerie Zeigenfuss,Billie Jean King Nancy Richey, Peaches Bartkowicz, Kristy Pigeon, promoter Gladys Heldman, rosie Casals, Kerry Melville and Julie Dalton.
