Silver bowl tennis trophy presented to Sally Ride, 1965
Silver bowl tennis trophy presented to Sally Ride, 1965. This silver trophy bowl was awarded to Dr. Sally K. Ride in 1965, recognizing her second place finish in a tennis tournament in central California when she was fourteen years old. Ride took her first tennis lesson in 1961, and she quickly became a talented and dedicated player. She entered the private Westlake School for Girls in 1965 on a partial tennis scholarship and also went on to become a nationally-ranked tennis player as an undergraduate at Swarthmore College and Stanford University. She briefly considered becoming a professional player, but decided to concentrate on a career in science instead. She became the first American woman in space when she flew aboard STS-7 in 1983

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable silver bowl tennis trophy, presented to the legendary Dr. Sally K. Ride in 1965. At just fourteen years old, Ride's exceptional talent and dedication led her to secure second place in a prestigious tennis tournament held in central California. This achievement marked the beginning of an extraordinary journey for Ride, who took her first tennis lesson in 1961. Recognizing her immense potential, Ride was granted a partial tennis scholarship at the renowned Westlake School for Girls later that year. Her passion and skill continued to flourish as she went on to become a nationally-ranked player during her undergraduate years at Swarthmore College and Stanford University. Despite contemplating a professional career in tennis, Ride ultimately chose to focus on science instead. In 1983, she etched her name into history by becoming the first American woman to venture into space aboard STS-7. Crafted by Gorham Manufacturing Company, this exquisite silver trophy symbolizes not only Ride's early triumphs but also serves as a testament to her indomitable spirit and unwavering pursuit of excellence. Now preserved within the National Air and Space Museum of the Smithsonian Institution, this cherished artifact stands as an enduring reminder of Dr. Sally K. Ride's groundbreaking achievements both on and off the court.
