But Althea Gibson did play, and what's more, she won. Althea was born in Silver, South Carolina, in 1927. When Althea was still a child, her family moved north to New York city. While Althea was in junior high school, she became interested in paddle tennis. (1)_______________________.One day, a black musician named Buddy Walker saw Althea playing paddle tennis.
