Billie Jean King recently said that the challenges she and her fellow female professionals endured half a century ago in the pursuit of equal pay were validated when Coco Gauff won the 2023 US Open.

This year's New York Major commemorated the 50th anniversary of the tournament's groundbreaking achievement of ensuring equal pay for both men and women. Back in 1973, King spearheaded the movement by rallying sponsors and urging the United States Tennis Association (USTA) to implement equal prize money at the Grand Slam.

In a recent interview, King praised Gauff's victory at Flushing Meadows, saying that the young athlete is a valuable asset to tennis.

"Coco winning was just fantastic. When I see her, she's the reason we fought so hard 50 years ago. Gauff going to be really fantastic for our sport," she told PEOPLE magazine.

King also praised Coco Gauff for her dedication to social justice advocacy. The 79-year-old added that the World No. 3 serves as a role model for the upcoming generation.

"I think she's such a force, because of her background and care for social justice. It comes from her grandmother [Yvonne Lee Odom]. Her grandmother was the first Black child to go to an all-white school in Delray," she added.

Billie Jean King is also hopeful that Gauff will ascend to the top of the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) rankings in the future.

"But I want her to be happy, number one. She's really exciting to watch and a great athlete," King expressed.
