Battle Of The Sexes

SINOPSIS

One man. One woman. One hell of a tennis match. In 1973 Billie Jean King played former Grand Slam Champion, and self-proclaimed male chauvinist pig, Bobby Riggs in the most watched tennis match in history. On learning that her male counterparts were paid greater prize money for matches, King singlehandedly spearheaded a campaign to form the Women's Tennis Association demanding equal pay for play. Incorporating rich archival footage alongside interviews with tennis players past and present, Erskine and Hayes never lose sight of the main subject - crafting King's story with a great deal of verve and suspense.
