Margaret Court

Margaret Court used her height, long reach and strength to dominate at the net, at a time when three of the four majors were played on grass. Her serve-volley game won her Wimbledon in 1963, 1965 and 1970, the last as part of a calendar Grand Slam. She won 24 Grand Slam singles titles in all, still the women's record, though many came before the Open era.
