Product Description

Martina Navratilova was a fearsome presence on the tennis court for 20 years. Navratilova's records are numerous. She has won more singles and doubles tournaments than any other woman, but she was forced to defect from her homeland to the US in order to do. She defected to the United States at the 1975 US Open, shortly before her 19th birthday. Navratilova felt she had to defect in order to develop as a tennis player and as a person, but the decision was a painful one. Follow her amazing story from her early tennis playing days, her constant hounding by the press and her rise to be the greatest tennis player of her day. Named Female Athlete of the Decade for the 1980s by National Sports Review, United Press International, and the Associated Press, she has for years, personified tennis greatness and unbridled athleticism. This programme takes an in depth look at Martina s life and career giving a rare insight into a true sporting legend. Including match footage and interviews with tennis legends Pam Shriver, Chris Evert and Billie Jean King. Learn the true story behind one of sports true superstars!

This review is from: Martina Navratilova - Her Story - The Greatest Female Tennis Champion of all Time - Biography Channel [DVD] (DVD)
Martina Navratilova was a seriously good tennis player. I have always enjoyed watching her present on TV, what a lovely person, and wish I had had the opportunity to watch her play at the time. Of course, I have since seen many of her matches and gotten caught up in all the thrill of the day.

This DVD is great, giving a real insight into her shockingly interesting life and career. With some lovely footage, the main draw for me was discovering all the things I never even knew! The story of her career and her defection to the US could easily make a great little film on it's own.

I loved watching this in the run up to wimbledon this year, really got me in the mood for all the drama on court!
