Son of a policeman, he learned tennis at the age of ten from a black physician in Richmond, Va., who hoped to develop the first black player to win the national Interscholastic Championships. Ashe won that tournament in 1961. As a freshman at U.C.L.A. in 1963, he achieved top-ten ranking among U.S. tennis players and has remained there...
