All the action from the World Cup of women's tennis
Transcript
00:00Billie Jean King is a force of nature. I'll never forget meeting her for the very first time when I was in my early 20s and I was playing World Team Tennis actually and she came onto the court and I literally just got off, I don't know, a 13 hour flight.
00:14She was like, Anne, why aren't you moving your feet faster? She was so demanding but it's Billie Jean King. You do what Billie Jean King tells you to do. You move your feet. They only go so fast though, Billie. And I'm really jet lagged.
00:30But no, she has done so much for not just for women but for the sport, constantly promoting it, constantly pushing the right messages through, inspiring so many people and everything she's done for gender equality and to give us now the platform to perform, inspire others and do what we love is remarkable.
