Wills Faces Handicap In European Tennis Invasion
Henry L. Farrell notes Helen Wills, 18, leaves Berkeley for Europe to pursue the world tennis title. The American champion will first play in England with an English ball on Wimbledon turf, a notable handicap compared with her clay-court game at home. Experts, including Vinnie Richards, warn the smaller, softer English ball and softer turf may challenge her adaptability before Paris matches on clay with an American ball. Lenglen’s illness casts further doubt on her July readiness as Wills plans to adjust pace and strategy to counter the French star.
