Papers
- Smith, Margaret Couret (TennisFame.com)
"For sheer strength of performance and accomplishment there has never been a tennis player to match Margaret Smith Court. As the most prolific winner of major championships, she rolled up 62 titles in singles, doubles and mixed doubles between 1960 and 1975, and took the Australian, French, Wimbledon and U.S. singles all within 1970 for the second female Grand Slam. She is the only player to achieve a Slam in doubles as well as in singles; Margaret and fellow Aussie Ken Fletcher won the four titles in mixed in 1963."
"Her closest rivals statistically are not close: Martina Navratilova with 56 majors and Roy Emerson heading the men with 28. Court has 24 alone in singles, three ahead of Steffi Graf." 01-10
