Draws Admiration
Rosewall Is the type of
tennis player who quickly
draws the admiration and re
spect of tennis fans every
where. Hosewall, slender and
fragile in appearance, has a
tensile strength in his wiry
frame that allows him to out
last larger, and so-called
stronger, players. He has
amazingly fluid reflexes and
his dogged determination to
beat out the bigger. '
These traits, combined' with
an almost stoical expression
during combat, attract the si
lent admiration of the spec
tators as they watch him
match shots with his oppon
ents. However, beneath that
stoical veneer blazes a fan
atical ambition to win.
Colorful In Own Way
Rosewall Is not necessarily
a true promoter's dream. He
has little of the flamboyant
mannerisms of a Pancho Se
gura and only smattering
of the overwhelming power of
a Lew Hoed. He turns his
back on the gestures that made
Ted Williams a controversial
ports figure; yet, in his own
way, he is colorful and crowd-
appealing. Rosewall Is the
master of concentration, built
upon the foundation of a me
chanically perfect ground

with the basic strokes can en

Cam Naturally
Ken came into tennis as na
turally as an American boy
takes to baseball. The nation
al pastime of the land down
under is tennis, and thus did
Ken take up the racket
swinging sport. He reached the
top of the complex Australian
tennis world In 1953 when he
was named to the Aussie
Davis Cup team at 19 years
of age, along with Lew Hoad,
who was the other member
of what was referred to as
Australia's "whiz kid tandem."
From 1953 to 1956 Rose
wall and Hoad made shambles
of amateur tennis. Twice in
that period the two wallaby
wallopers led Australia to vic
tory in the Davis Cup against
the United States. Ken won
every major title during
that time except Wimbledon
where he was runner-up twice.
In Davis Cup competition
Rosewall won six of the eight
matches he was involved in.
Sevan of Eight
In 1962 Ken won seven
out of eight tournaments in
which ho competed and dom
inated play in tour matches.
For years Rosewall had
been called the best tennis
player in the world, pound
for pound. The weight classi
fication has now been
dropped. '
