EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a young Suzanne Lenglen at the tender age of fifteen, showcasing her promising tennis career that would later make her a legendary figure in the world of sports. The image, published in The Tatler magazine in 1914, highlights her precocious talent and resemblance to Anthony Wilding, the New Zealand tennis player who had a significant impact on her game during their time on the Riviera the previous season. Born in Paris, France, in 1899, Lenglen's passion for tennis began at an early age. In this photograph, she is already demonstrating her exceptional skills on the court, embodying the German playing style that would become her trademark. Her ability to seldom miss a shot and excel on the baseline caught the attention of the media, with The Tatler predicting that one day she may win the English championship. Lenglen's tennis career blossomed in the 1920s, as she amassed an impressive total of 81 singles titles. Her dominance in the sport earned her the nickname "La Divine," and she remains one of the most celebrated tennis players in history. This photograph serves as a testament to her early promise and the beginning of her remarkable journey to tennis stardom. The image, preserved in the extensive archives of Mary Evans Prints Online, is a rare glimpse into the past, offering a fascinating insight into the life of a young sportswoman on the cusp of greatness.
