Overpower. Overtake. Overcome. – Serena Williams
Throughout history, every woman pulling on spikes, lacing up boots and picking up a racquet has been a rebel – and this explosive book aims to uncover the often hidden histories behind 50 of these incredible pioneers.
From the first Black woman to be a professional softball player, Betty Chapman, to the iconic “Battle of the Sexes” match won by Billie Jean King, and from trans trailblazer Laurel Hubbard to Emma Raducanu’s unforgettable US Open win, award-winning sports journalist Suzanne Wrack celebrates sporting giants at the absolute top of their games.
