Helen Wills
Helen Newington Wills, also known as married Helen Wills Moody and Helen Wills Roark, is an American tennis player. She became famous by holding first place in women's tennis for a total of nine years: 1927–33, 1935 and 1938. She has won 31 Grand Slam titles during her career, of which 19 single title. Wills is the first American athlete to become a global celebrity, befriending royals and movie stars even though she prefers to stay out of the spotlight. She is admired for her lovely figure and flexible movements. She is part of the new tennis fad, playing with knee-length pleated skirts instead of the longer ones of her predecessors, and is known to wear the signature white face goggles of me. Unusually, she trains against men to hone her skills, and she plays a mostly basic game that is mostly relentless, taking down her female opponents with strength and precision body.
