Billie Jean King
Be bold. If you're going to make an error, make a doozy, and don't be afraid to hit the ball.
Billie Jean King
When we reach the point where the women athletes are getting their pick of dates just as easily as the men athletes, then we've really and truly arrived. Parity at last!

Billie Jean King

Martina and I went through a very bad five years. Everything's very good between us now, but it was a long haul.
Billie Jean King
I always think it's best to pretend you're in a tenuous position. Just as a player, you always want to stay in the now and work hard but also have goals for the future. There's no promises in any entrepreneurial business. You have to really work hard every year and also try to envision where you want to go in the future at the same time.
Billie Jean King
I have often been asked whether I am a women or an athlete. The question is absurd. Men are not asked that. I am an athlete. I am a women.
Billie Jean King
I knew after my first lesson what I wanted to do with my life.
Billie Jean King
Winning comes down to who can execute under pressure.
Billie Jean King

Billie Jean King
