Joan Ridley

Toronto Daily Star, 11 August 1934

 

It's pretty cool when someone wins a championship so often that they just let her keep the trophy. Though I'm not sure what you would do with it - display it proudly on the mantelpiece, I guess.

Joan Ridley (1903-1983) had her best result in 1931, when she was a finalist at Wimbledon in mixed doubles. She got married in 1935, and appears to have ended her tennis career at about that time.
