Tennis Great Bill Tilden's Home Court
Bill Tilden is considered the best tennis player from the first half of the twentieth century. This was his home court, and there is a move to install a plaque saying as much. But there is opposition, because he had a criminal history involving sexual misconduct with boys. See the Philadelphia Inquirer, 1/23/17, at pp. A1, 8.
