In front of 30,000 fans and a global audience of some 50 million, the iconic tennis match they said would never happen, was about to get underway...

Billie Jean King was the darling of American tennis: a global, multi-major winning superstar at the peak of her powers.

Combining match footage with contemporary interviews from players past and present, key contributors and journalists, relive how The Battle of the Sexes placed tennis on the world's centre-court, and changed sport forever.
