About Cindy: "My work is an outlet for my lifelong passion for women’s sports by combining my love of woodworking and sculpture. Drawing from the rich histories held within vintage female trophy toppers, I reimagine these nostalgic objects through a contemporary lens. By integrating wood, light, and found materials, my sculptures celebrate the often-overlooked histories of female athletes, while honoring their legacy and giving new life to forgotten symbols of achievements. Working in wood allows me to shape dynamic, three-dimensional forms that are functional and feel both familiar and expressive. Through these sculptures, I explore themes of recognition, resilience, and remembrance—creating works that are both personal tributes and cultural reflections."

The LPGA was the first women’s pro league that has stayed and grown since its inception. The WTA was the second. Both have had a tremendous impact on women’s sports. We are fortunate to still have Billie Jean King as a leader in the women’s sports movement; positively guiding equality in women’s soccer pay and the formation of the women’s professional ice hockey league.

On September 23, 1970, 56 years ago today, the Original 9 signed $1 contracts in Houston, Texas.

In doing so, women's professional tennis as we know it was born, and future generations of players were able to live out their dreams.

It's important to recognize the other individuals who helped make this happen. Thank you to Chris Evert, who came on board in 1974, and to who joined next. From the business side, we are indebted to Joe Cullman, Former Chairman and CEO of Philip Morris, Gladys Heldman, and all the tournament promoters who took a chance on us and created opportunities.

Today, professional tennis players represent 10 of the top 20 highest paid women athletes, according to Forbes 2025 ranking.

56 years later, the impact of the Original 9 is seen in the careers and dreams of today's players.

The legacy of the Original 9 lives on.

A well deserved title for a legendary coach.

A well deserved title for a legendary coach.

Coach Emerita is a title reserved for legends in their sport, bestowed by university presidents on very few. Despite hundreds of winning coaches in Arizona State's storied history, until 2026 there were zero ASU coaches who held this prestigious title.

The woman that broke the color barrier in women's tennis. Altheat Gibson.

The woman that broke the color barrier in women's tennis. Altheat Gibson.

Before Serena. Before Venus. There was Althea Gibson.

In 1956, she became the first Black player to win a Grand Slam singles title, and she kept going, winning Wimbledon and the U.S. Nationals the following year.

She stepped onto courts that weren't always ready to welcome her and made history anyway. The generations that came after her had a door to walk through because Althea helped open it.

Happy Heavenly Birthday, Althea Gibson.
