I read on the ITF site that Angela Buxton has passed away. She was of course a Wimbledon Finalist, in the 50's, as well as winning doubles at Wimbledon and the French.
She suffered from much prejudice in her life, as a Jewish lady, and triumphed despite the barriers put in her way. She played doubles with Althea Gibson, a pairing I suspect would have been formidable in any day and age.
