00:13She's a natural.
00:14What she has, that can't be taught.
00:16Nice shot.
00:17You want to take our girl away?
00:19I can't emphasize it enough.
00:21Yvonne has the potential to make her mark
00:23on the international game of tennis.
00:24She's having fun.
00:27I'm proud of you, Bob.
00:28Promise me you'll enjoy it.
00:30And when it stops being fun, you come home.
00:32I promise.
00:34Go, Tong!
00:37Right far.
00:38I'm carrying this around all night.
00:42For God's sake, Trisha, you're an embarrassment.
00:45I'm sick of this.
00:46And I'm sick of you controlling my life.
00:48Trisha, you can't go.
00:50Sorry, Eve.
00:52You're going to have to work out how to deal with him by yourself.
00:58Perhaps not the game we expected.
01:00I'd argue that Yvonne is out of form.
01:03Then, I may not with you.
01:08If you ever put your tongue in my mouth again, I will bite it off!
01:13Yvonne will learn from this.
01:14You've all seen what a beautiful player she is.
01:17Will you be back next year to make your coach proud?
01:19I'll never be back next year.
01:20Come on.
01:20Here you go.
01:21Go ahead.
01:22How's it going?
01:26Go ahead.
01:27Go ahead.
02:01Hold on, hold on.
02:03Fifteen, hold on.
02:07Yvonne, do the golf too soon.
02:09Yeah!
02:21When you reckon you'll be back this way?
02:23Right after she wins Wimbledon, eh, Yeevee?
02:26We'll see, Dad.
02:28First, I've got to go to South Africa.
02:30Why do you want to go there?
02:32What do you reckon? Play tennis?
02:35You want to be careful.
02:37They treat their blackfellas the same as they do here.
02:39Even worse.
02:41It'll be fine, Mum.
02:44Remember that time you rang me from Sydney?
02:47Crying after that woman said she'd never been beaten by a nigger before?
02:51Yeah.
02:52It's what you're walking into.
02:54When did this happen?
02:57Last year.
02:59What do you mean to say something?
03:01We made a complaint to the tennis club.
03:03She doesn't play there anymore.
03:05Good work.
03:07Lucky me and your mother weren't there.
03:08We would've given them what for.
03:12You sure you want to go?
03:14I don't want anyone rubbishing you over there.
03:17Maybe if they do, I'll give them what for.
03:20I'd like to see that.
03:25We got that woman banned, Barb.
03:28Maybe some good will come of all this, too.
03:33I don't know, Eve.
03:35You can play tennis anywhere in the world.
03:38Bet I know his big idea was to go to South Africa.
03:45Margaret Court is there.
03:57Come on, please.
04:14Firstly, I'd like to say I'm astounded at the reaction to Yvonne playing at the South African Open.
04:21Excuse me, Yvonne, are you letting your people down?
04:23Why are you going to South Africa?
04:25Are you a supporter of apartheid?
04:29I'm going to play tennis.
04:31As long as I'm treated like any tennis player in any part of the world,
04:35South Africa won't worry me.
04:36How do you feel being called a traitor by your own people?
04:39I haven't heard that.
04:41Which toilet are you going to use?
04:43The ones for the whites or the ones for the blacks?
04:46If there's any of that nonsense, we'll be on the first plane out of there.
04:50The African-American player Bonnie Logan's not taking part.
04:53And Arthur Ashe has repeatedly been denied visas to compete in South Africa.
04:58How are you getting into the country?
05:00Have you been classed as an honorary white?
05:02Standard procedures were followed and Yvonne was granted a visa.
05:05Why Mr. Ashe was denied one?
05:07That's something you'll have to take up with the South African government.
05:10You're a black person, Yvonne.
05:12You're going to a country where the oppression of black people is written in law.
05:16Why do you want to support such a regime?
05:18That's totally inappropriate.
05:19I asked Yvonne.
05:25If Margaret Court's allowed to play in South Africa, why can't I?
05:31I'm going there to win.
05:33I want to show them that a black player is just as good as a white player.
05:38I think everyone should be treated equally.
05:41Black or white.
05:43It's not the way it works in South Africa.
06:03It's not the way it works in South Africa.
06:31I'm sorry you lost.
06:34You did good.
06:39I don't understand what all the fuss is about.
06:44You're not even black.
06:58They're going to crucify me when I get home.
07:01Why did you bring me here?
07:04Don't dwell on it, Pat.
07:06You'll learn from this.
07:07It's easy for you to say.
07:09Forget about what people say.
07:10You believe in yourself.
07:12Played your heart out.
07:13That's all that matters.
07:15Is it?
07:16It doesn't feel like it.
07:19Margaret Court's won 20 Grand Slam titles.
07:22She's the greatest player that the women's game's ever seen.
07:25You'll learn from the loss and figure out how you're going to beat her next time.
07:36Now that you're gone, all that's left is a band of gold.
07:43All that's left of the dreams I hold is a band of gold.
07:50All that's left of the dreams I hold is a band of gold.
07:51I'm a band of gold.
07:54I'm a band of gold.
08:09You chicken.
08:17Alright, hopefully you're doing it without so many things.
08:18Oh no?
08:19Hopefully you can't look up at mine.
08:19And his game is a band of gold.
08:20Hi.
08:21Hi.
08:24Congratulations on your first slam
08:26French Open in England final tomorrow
08:29Wow
08:30Thank you
08:34The post has been terrible
08:36I never just got lost
08:37My letters to you are yours to me
08:39I got your letters
08:43You couldn't have told me in person
08:46I knew what you'd say
08:48I'd have had a point
08:50How can you stay with him?
08:52He's a monster
08:53I don't need you to fight my battles for me
08:57I just have to
09:00Handle him
09:04I'm doing this for me
09:06For my family
09:06You need to understand that
09:10Just when the French Open
09:13Something's working
09:15I'm worried about you
09:18That's all I see
09:23Touché
09:27Nothing serious
09:30I got those tickets to the final tomorrow for you
09:34Well that's great, thanks
09:37You should get back to it
09:39I truly hope it works out for you
09:43Watch out for him
09:44Go on
09:57And then
09:58I have to rest
09:58but do if anyone
10:06they hold I
10:07will do this You
10:14have to stand
11:14She's got to be warm, and love's got to be right, and this ain't no IFQ that you grew with
11:20tonight, so don't you dish me out the cool-o.
11:24She's going to play tennis, she needs a dress.
11:28Well, if any more of our kids want to play, we're going to run out of shape.
11:34See?
12:02Well, if any more of our kids want to play, we're going to run out of shape, and we're going
12:04to run out of shape.
12:04Nothing. What's your mob doing?
12:08Been fishing. Caught the biggest mob of Yellowbelly. Big feed tonight, you're missing out.
12:13Oh, save me some?
12:14I don't know about that. You know what these families like, they'll clean it all up.
12:18Yeah, next time then?
12:20Yeah. When do you get back?
12:23Where's Mum?
12:25Ah, she's down at the shops. Looks like everyone's coming around here to watch a match.
12:30Wish I was there.
12:31How's that going to work? If you're here, who are we going to watch on the TV?
12:38You ready?
12:40Yeah, Dad.
12:42We're all so proud of you, bub.
12:44Now, Madam Margot got all of them trophies. It's your turn now.
12:49You've done all the hard work.
12:51Now, you go give them what fall.
12:53And remember, we love you no matter what.
12:57Thanks, Dad.
13:13For the first time in history, two Australians will contest the women's single final at Wimbledon.
13:19The reigning champion, the clinical Margaret Court, will meet the young Aborigine, Yvonne Gulagong.
13:24In their previous eight matches, Gulagong has only beaten Court once.
13:29But with her victory at the French Open, she has announced herself to the world.
13:33And can she clinch another slam?
15:55Good moment for an ace, a second advantage, Mrs. Court.
16:00Can she capitalise on it this time?
16:03Yes, she can.
16:05And Margaret is on the court.
16:07I think you've had to give her something.
16:08You're rude not to, eh?
16:09Yeah, right.
16:15Great point to hold, and that's three consecutive games.
16:18It shows that a player with Margaret's experience can turn a match around with little warning.
16:23It's 5-4 to Ghoulagong in this first set, but it's Mrs. Court's advantage.
16:36Oh, courageous net play at great point.
16:39Juice.
16:40Ghoulagong was lucky to get a second go at the smash, and she took no prisoners with it.
17:02Advantage, Mrs. Court.
17:16Cheers.
17:17Oh!
17:19The natural god smiled on Yvonne there.
17:21You'll take it.
17:22You'll take that.
17:23We'll take it, all right, Frankie.
17:24But you can feel Margaret's fight to stay in this match.
17:27You can, eh? It's hanging in the balance.
17:30Court is two points away from equalising in the first set.
17:34Gulagong is even closer to winning it.
17:36Come on, Amy. That was a timely ace from Yvonne.
17:38She holds her nerve, now serving for the first set.
17:51Gulagong takes the first set, 6-4.
17:53She wins this, Kenny. I'll have to have you ready.
17:58That's how I go, eh?
18:00She's having fun.
18:10Yvonne has broken Margaret early in the second set of this women's final,
18:14and she's looking pretty confident, Dan.
18:16She is. Hard to believe she's only 19.
18:19She's only 19.
18:31Game. Miss Gulagong.
18:34Like that one.
18:46Yvonne Gulagong is one match point away from winning a Wimbledon crown.
19:03You're about to become the man who snubbed a Wimbledon champion.
19:10I think she's going to win a glove.
19:11Quiet, please.
19:28Game, set, and change.
19:31That's what I'm going to do.
19:33Oh, what an awesome man that you've kept that you hear about.
19:38What time?
20:01So, it seems there's a little epidemic of bottom pinching going around Wimbledon.
20:07Yes, you men have been sneaking up on a woman, reaching out and giving her a good...
20:15Now, I'm not asking for that, but maybe I need to pinch myself to believe that this is all real.
20:22Ever since I was little, and read a story in Princess magazine, I've dreamed of winning a Wimbledon final.
20:30And now here I am.
20:32It's a long way from Borellon.
20:35So, thank you to everyone who's helped me get here.
20:43We'd like to invite our two Wimbledon champions of 1971, Ms. Yvonne Goulagon and Mr. John Newcomb, on to the
20:50dance floor.
21:01Congratulations.
21:02She was absolutely incredible today.
21:04A credit to you.
21:05That silverware is yours, too.
21:07I knew when I first saw her she'd be something special.
21:10Ah, she sure is.
21:12She sure is.
21:13A lot of sparky players coming through the women's game now.
21:17Coaches are circling like vultures around this girl from Florida, Chrissy Ebert.
21:22She is a bright spark.
21:25Killer backhand.
21:26Not unlike your Yvonne.
21:29So, what are your plans for her from here?
21:32Patience.
21:33Training.
21:34The world will soon learn what a champion Yvonne is.
21:36French Open.
21:37Wimbledon.
21:39I think the world already knows, Vic.
21:41Yeah.
21:49Um, are we okay?
21:58It's okay.
22:00He's with me.
22:06You were incredible today.
22:09I know the timing of this looks bad.
22:13You're amazing.
22:15And I've been an Arthur idiot.
22:19You're right.
22:21I am amazing.
22:23You have been an idiot.
22:28You have a good night, Roger.
22:31I'm sure there's enough here to keep you busy.
22:41Hey, here she is.
22:43I get the feeling the British are a little anxious that another Aussie's taken their crown.
22:48Not sure you're gonna give it back.
22:50Well, it is a nice fit.
22:52Oh, it's a magnificent fit.
22:59You did well today, Vic.
23:02You can be justly proud.
23:10I want you to pay no attention to this business about the Margaret.
23:13What business?
23:15There's a rumor going around that she's pregnant and wouldn't have lost otherwise.
23:20Why would people say that?
23:23Scuttlebug.
23:24Played beautifully today.
23:26I just want an excuse to say that you don't really belong here.
23:34Well, I guess we'll just have to come back again next year and do it all again.
23:59It's outrageous what they're saying about you.
24:01Billie Jean's whipping in a storm that's out of control.
24:05Chrissie's a part of it now.
24:06But you're doing well to stay out of it.
24:08Yeah.
24:09I suppose it's all part of the territory.
24:12You're the one they all want to beat.
24:22You're up.
24:23Thanks.
24:29You've got 15 minutes.
24:36Thank you for agreeing to this, Yvonne.
24:41No worries.
24:43I'm sure you're aware Aboriginal activists have set up an embassy on the Lords of Parliament House to draw attention
24:48to their plight.
24:49They've hoisted their own flag.
24:51It's caused quite a stir in Australia.
24:54Care to share your thoughts?
24:58I'm the first, and only Aboriginal, playing tennis overseas, and I feel really great about it.
25:05Me and my family, we were so proud when Lionel Rose won the world title in 68.
25:12Dad reckons my brothers were bouncing around the house shadowboxing, thinking they were Lionel Rose.
25:19We're just as good as anyone.
25:22And I want to show my people that if you work hard enough, dream hard enough, you can get here.
25:30Lovely design Teddy Tinling's come up with for you this year.
25:34Is it true Gulagong means tall trees by still waters?
25:37So I've been told.
25:40Are you saying that's not what it means?
25:45It's public knowledge you've been ostracised by the other women in the dressing room.
25:49That must be tough.
25:50I don't think it's personal.
25:53Competitive, maybe.
25:54As well as setting up her rebel women's tour, Billie Jean King has been very vocal in her campaign to
26:00secure a bigger prize purse for female players, an equal one.
26:03Do you support her?
26:08The game of tennis has given me everything I ever dreamed of and more.
26:13I feel like the luckiest person in the world.
26:16You grew up on an Aboriginal reserve, is that right?
26:19No. There was a mission nearby.
26:23Whenever a shiny black car would drive past, Mum would make all us kids run and hide under the bed.
26:28That must have been dreadfully frightening.
26:32We were the lucky ones.
26:34Our family got to stay together.
26:38Until your tennis took you away.
26:43I chose tennis.
26:47I feel so lucky to be here.
26:50I love this tournament so much, I play for free.
26:56You said your coach has programmed your career for you.
26:59Do you get a say in that?
27:02Mr Edwards gave me an opportunity and for that I will always be grateful.
27:08And I took that opportunity with both hands.
27:12I hope one day I might be someone who can inspire Aboriginal kids.
27:19Maybe one day we'll see some of them bouncing around the yard swinging a racket.
27:25Thinking they're Yvonne Goulagonk.
27:30I'm watching this Chris Everett playing.
27:32Tough little customer.
27:34You'll need to be a lot more aggressive against her.
27:37Just play my natural game.
27:38That's what you usually say.
27:40Yes, but the stakes are much higher now.
27:42It would be humiliating not to make the final, wouldn't it?
27:44Don't get complacent.
27:47I'm not.
27:48This is Chris's first big semi.
27:50She'll be nervous.
27:51She likes to hug the baseline so I'll force her to the net.
27:55And play short of that double handed backhand of hers.
27:58Sir Achilles here.
28:01I want you to win.
28:02That's what I'm here for.
28:16You nearly had me there.
28:17Huh.
28:18Sure I did.
28:20Too many unforced errors in that last set.
28:22That was a great game, Chris.
28:23You won't be as nervous next year.
28:26I wasn't nervous.
28:34I'm fighting for all of us and you're telling the world that you'd play here for free?
28:39That's not all I said.
28:40You're the number one seed here.
28:41Everything you say matters.
28:43I just want to play tennis.
28:45Well, you're not alone there.
28:47But the men that run this show need to respect us.
28:52Last year at the U.S. Open, the men's prize money was 12 times the women's.
28:56That's what we're up against.
28:59People are watching the Rebel Tour.
29:01Lots of people.
29:02We're making inroads here.
29:04Walk with us.
29:05But you could be banned from playing the slams.
29:08They're just threats.
29:09It's all they have.
29:12If we all stick together, there's no way they'll do that.
29:15Hmm?
29:19Congrats, by the way.
29:27Mum said, when it stops being fun, come home.
29:31What if I'm a one-hit wonder?
29:32No, we're near a one-hit wonder.
29:34You're Led Zeffin.
29:35You're the rock and roll of tennis.
29:36Yeah.
29:40Do you know what your surname means?
29:43I'm told it has Gaelic origins.
29:47Pasty white legs by Muddy Bog.
29:53Tall trees by Still Water.
29:57What's all the dress?
30:01I can't believe that people get to just make up whatever they want.
30:05And I have to wear it.
30:06Literally.
30:08It's your own fault for being so talented.
30:10Hmm.
30:11It's why they're all after you.
30:14You think Vic's gonna stand out of search, Barty?
30:16Oh.
30:17Not sure of his tracking skills.
30:21He's been in an almost okay mood lately.
30:23How's that possible?
30:24Oh, he's like a child.
30:26We just have to handle him right.
30:28Not upset him.
30:31Hmm.
30:31He keeps on going at me
30:34to focus on crushing the other player.
30:37But what I want.
30:39What I love.
30:41It's that moment when I'm playing someone really great
30:44and we lift each other.
30:47And the tennis is so good.
30:50It's like we both win.
30:55Thank you for today.
30:58I really needed a friend.
31:03I need some.
31:10What a clinical display.
31:13Billie Jean King has claimed her fourth Wimbledon crown
31:15in just 50 minutes.
31:18This wasn't just another final for Billie Jean.
31:20This was personal.
31:22The reigning champion Yvonne Gulagong was crushed today.
31:42How are you, Beth?
31:44Well, I just wish it could have been a better match for the crowd.
31:48It's a feeling for others that makes you so beautiful.
31:55This tour has been particularly unpleasant for you.
31:58But you made the final.
32:00You'll be proud of that.
32:06I've been thinking.
32:08I know it's a risk.
32:10But is there any way I can join the women's tour?
32:14What they're doing is important.
32:16I want to be a part of it.
32:18Maybe.
32:18If the slams loosen their rules.
32:23This might interest you.
32:26I've heard of a new tennis tournament being set up over in the States.
32:30That could be fun.
32:32Weekly matches.
32:33Huge crowds.
32:34If you mean a lot more tennis.
32:36Oh, the more tennis the better.
32:38Then you'd have to move to America.
32:41Alone?
32:43No, I'd be there.
32:46It's a big move.
32:48Maybe sit on it for a bit.
32:51You go home and spend some time with your family.
32:54You've earned it.
32:56In the meantime, I could draft a new contract while you have a think of that.
33:13So the old fella's still wheelin' and dealin', eh?
33:16Got you livin' on the other side of the world now.
33:18Yeah.
33:19We discussed it.
33:21And I think it's a good thing.
33:24If you say so.
33:27You got a lawyer to look at that contract?
33:33Just be careful, Eve, that's all.
33:36I will, Dad.
33:38How long's the contract for?
33:41Four years.
33:42Four years?
33:43You better be getting good money for that.
33:45I bet he is.
33:46There's a lot of expenses.
33:48Mr. Edwards covers all of that.
33:50And then I get spending money.
33:51We used to work for rations, flour, sugar, tea.
33:55Then they started paying us.
33:57Boss man would hide our wages.
33:59Chuck us a bit of money now and then.
34:00You don't need no mission manager, Eve.
34:03Don't let anyone tell you you're not good enough.
34:04I won't, Dad.
34:09This is something I really want to do.
34:13It's America.
34:14It'll be fun.
34:16When it stops.
34:17I know, come home.
34:20God, you and Mum never give up.
34:22Never, bub.
34:33Remember, Yvonne, you're the sunshine superwoman now.
34:37That's the brand we're leaning into.
34:39Okay, after this, I need you to go straight home into bed
34:41and be downstairs at 0400 for your airport car.
34:44Once we hit San Fran, I have some radio interviews lined up,
34:47then you're on court.
34:48Post-match, it is straight to Sarasota before the US Open.
34:51More lift?
34:52Mr. Edwards has locked in a pre-tournament exhibition
34:55for you and Chris.
34:56Oh, and we're up to six department stores
34:58for meet and greets to launch your championship dress.
35:00What dress?
35:01I love it.
35:02It's a teddy.
35:03Quick, please.
35:05It's been sent to your apartment,
35:07and please remember to have those tennis balls signed by tomorrow.
35:10The sponsors can't wait any longer.
35:11They're ready for a seat.
35:12Is there a copy of the schedule, homie?
35:15Of course.
35:16That's at your apartment, too.
35:17But don't worry, I'll be there to keep you on track.
35:20Now show those pearly whites.
35:22Okay, everybody, going for a take.
35:23Team Yvonne.
35:24Quiet on set.
35:26And action.
35:27Hi, I'm Yvonne Gouldegong, and welcome to World Team Tennis.
35:35This is insane.
35:37Is she scheduled in my bathroom breaks?
35:39Yeah.
35:39They're in pink.
35:41Highlighters were invented for control freaks like Susan.
35:56Are you actually going to eat that?
35:58You want some?
35:59No.
36:00Ew.
36:01Get it away.
36:02Hey.
36:04Remember, she works for you, not the other way around.
36:18Hello?
36:20Barb.
36:21Eve.
36:22What are you doing?
36:23The usual.
36:25Travelling the countryside.
36:26Yeah.
36:27All over the place.
36:28Better come home soon.
36:30You won't recognise Ian like a beanstalk.
36:33I wish I could.
36:35But there's no real breaks anymore.
36:37I'll be back for the Australian season at the end of the year.
36:39But I'll go home to Mum and Dad's till the end of Jan.
36:43I think he's still working you hard.
36:45Is he behaving himself?
36:49He's alright.
36:50He's making a lot of things happen.
36:54Is Dad there?
36:55Why?
36:56You got the jitters?
36:58Little bit.
36:59The US Open's coming up.
37:01Sorry, Eve.
37:02Dad had to go to Hilston looking for work.
37:04His car's on its last legs.
37:07Any news on getting him a new one?
37:09I've asked Mr Edwards.
37:11I'll ask him again.
37:13Evie, you know how hard it was for Dad to ask in the first place?
37:17He wouldn't have if he didn't need it.
37:19Is there a problem?
37:22Don't you have a say over your own money?
37:26It's complicated.
37:28I'll ask again.
37:30Listen, Barb.
37:32I've got to go.
37:33I've got an early flight in the morning.
37:34I've still got a pack.
37:37Give Mama a hug for me.
37:38Love you. Bye.
37:39Bye, dude.
38:02You watch the tennis?
38:04No.
38:45Susan said you wanted to see me?
38:49I've...
38:52I've noticed you're lacking a bit of focus.
38:57I'm in the semis of the US Open.
38:59I'm playing World Team Tennis, the WTA.
39:02I'm jumping on planes and buses.
39:06I need a rest.
39:07Being a high-profile player comes at a price.
39:09You have to honour your commitment to the game and to your fans.
39:13Quite frankly, I feel like you're letting them down.
39:16You're letting me down.
39:17How?
39:19Your recent loss to Chrissie Ebbett.
39:23Everyone's losing to Chrissie Ebbett.
39:25She's on a 55-match winning streak.
39:27The crowds and the sponsors want to see a Goolagong-Ebbett final
39:30at the end of season championships.
39:32I don't think you're going to get there.
39:34You have to find your killer instinct.
39:37My matches with Chriss are great tennis.
39:41They're sold out.
39:41Everyone wants to watch us play.
39:45I'm working my butt off.
39:46For what?
39:47I've asked you for some money to buy Dad a new car.
39:49I'm still waiting.
39:50Yeah, I'll get there when I can, pet.
39:52You're not the only one with things on your plate, Yvonne.
39:56I promised him.
39:58You've already done so much for your family.
40:00You bought the house, new appliances.
40:03I think you need to be careful not to be too generous,
40:06but leave it with me.
40:08Why can't we just do it now?
40:10Isn't it my...
40:13I don't have the money.
40:15There are a lot of things to consider.
40:17Contracts, ongoing negotiations.
40:20But look, if you want to run your own finances,
40:23I can pass them all over to you.
40:31After this tournament,
40:33Susie's going to be taking care of things while I'm away.
40:38I'm just going to be taking a little break with Mrs Edwards.
40:50I hope you have a lovely time.
41:08Um, Peggy, what's going on?
41:11Post-U.S. open party.
41:13Vic's away with his wife.
41:15Susan's sulking.
41:16We're cutting loose.
41:17And also, some guy came around for you.
41:21Cameron, that cute guy from above?
41:23No, some English guy.
41:26He's cute, too.
41:39What are you doing here?
41:43About replying to my letters?
41:46I had to see you.
41:49And how long are you here for?
41:52I'm not sure yet.
41:55We'll see what happens.
42:03Hello.
42:05Oh, hey.
42:06Coming off.
42:06Always.
42:07Always.
42:08Always.
42:17I've missed you.
42:18Really?
42:20How much?
42:21How much?
42:24Oh, in my one more time.
42:27Yeah!
42:38Surely, as one of the highest-paid tennis players in the world,
42:41you can afford to have your laundry done.
42:44Old habits.
42:51I'm flying to Houston today,
42:53and then Phoenix, and then Los Angeles for two weeks after that,
42:59and then back here,
43:01then home for the Australian season,
43:04and then after that, I might finally get a break.
43:08Ugh.
43:10Every day, every moment of my life is scheduled.
43:19This was lovely, but it can't be the start of something.
43:22I mean, I've got no time or space for anything else.
43:28I can wait.
43:33I don't know if you should.
43:53I don't know how you can play.
43:59Sorry.
43:59Sorry.
44:04Must be getting excited about the wedding.
44:07Oh, didn't I tell you?
44:11Jimmy and I decided to call it off.
44:14He just assumed that my tennis would take a back seat to his.
44:21No room for two Wimbledon champions in the same marriage, I guess.
44:25Please welcome our finalists for 1974,
44:29Miss Chris Everett and Miss Yvonne Mooligan.
44:35Are you going to be okay?
44:56Thirty love.
45:00Quiet, please.
47:00What's going on?
47:02I'm so sorry, dear.
47:04There's been an accident.
47:06Your father...
47:11You didn't make it, love.
47:15What do you mean?
47:18What do you mean?
47:19I'm so sorry.
47:30I'm so sorry.
47:46I'm so sorry.
47:48Eve?
47:49Mum?
47:56I'll be home on the next plane.
48:00That's what Mum wants.
48:02But think about it first, Eve.
48:05We're all here for her and...
48:07You can't do much for Dad now.
48:12He'd want you to finish.
48:14Stay on the tour.
48:16Stay on the tour.
48:43No, I'm going to the funeral.
48:46This is my family.
48:48They need me.
48:50Your feelings for your father are honorable, but...
48:54I'm worried if you go home now, you'll never come back.
49:01I'm not your father, but I know what he would have wanted.
49:05And what Kenny Goulagon wanted more than anything...
49:08was for your family to be provided for, you know?
49:11He can't do that now, but you can do it for him.
49:16If you stay, you've got a clear path to the final.
49:20And if you win, you'll be able to provide for your family...
49:24in a way that your father could only have dreamed of.
49:28It's a considerable sacrifice for your father...
49:32letting you go off to live away from home.
49:36Don't let that sacrifice be for nothing.
49:44He'd have wanted you to keep going.
49:47Finish the tour.
50:08Game set, championship, Miss Goulagon.
50:14Game set, championship, Miss Goulagon,
50:19we're going to be able to communicate with you.
50:19We've got a better choice now.
50:22We had fun with you.
50:25We had fun with you.
50:29We've got a chance.
50:29We have fun with you.
50:36We'll be back with you, too.
50:37You can make a change-up, Miss Goulagon.
50:41We'll be back with you.
50:42We'll be back.
50:42We'll be back with you.
52:22Yvonne?
52:25You're there.
52:30Yvonne?
52:39You're there.
52:42Yvonne?
52:43Yvonne?
52:43Yvonne?
52:47Yvonne?
53:00Yvonne?
53:29Yvonne?
53:30You're on a strong course and I could have you barred from every tennis club and coaching
53:33school on three continents.
53:34I don't know what you're talking about.
53:35Yes, you do.
53:36I taught you everything.
53:38I had nothing to do with it.
53:39This is serious.
53:40You need to take a break.
53:42And I will.
53:43Right after the next match.
53:45Poor Yvonne.
53:46Poor Yvonne.
53:46If it is the end of her career, it's an awful way to go out.
