Higgins describes tennis Grand Slam Champion Rosie Casals. Born in San Francisco to immigrant parents from El Salvador, Rosie Casals had an unlikely start in the world of tennis. Taught by her great-uncle and longtime coach on the public courts of San Francisco, Casals became a dominant force on the tennis court and began winning championships in her teens. Although she was shorter and (by her own accounts) poorer than her fellow tennis players, she blasted past every barrier to become an absolute tennis legend. At age 17 she was hand-selected by Billie Jean King to be her doubles partner, and the pair went on to win five subsequent Grand Slam Championships. She won 12 Grand Slam tournaments, 112 doubles championships, and was once ranked the #3 tennis player in the U.S. Watch as Olympic Fencer Barbra I. Higgins recaps Rosie Casals' stunning career which inspired her and countless other Latina athletes around the world. See less
