Out tennis legend Billie Jean King turns 63 today. How better to celebrate than with a Photoshop pastiche of candles on a tennis ball? King’s accomplishments are too many to list here, but include 71 singles titles, 12 Grand Slam singles titles, 20 Wimbledon titles, and becoming the first female athlete to win more than $100,000 in a single season in any sport.
If you want to learn more, you can read a short biography of King at ESPN. The Women’s Sports Foundation (an organization she founded) has an even more extensive list of her achievements, both on court and as a champion for women’s and LGBT equality.
