Wimbledon, 1973 is a tribute to the fearless and focused women’s tennis champions who captured the imagination of a young Martin Cooney. Inspired by legends like Billie Jean King, Chris Evert, and Yvonne Goolagong, the sculpture channels the tension and elegance of a player poised to return a blistering serve—crouched low, balanced, and ready to strike.
Carved from Colorado Yule Marble, this piece is both solid and surprisingly portable. Its curved, compact form allows it to be moved with ease, yet it carries an undeniable presence in any setting. Whether displayed in a sunny studio or a contemplative garden, Wimbledon brings strength, grace, and motion to its surroundings.
More than a sculpture, Wimbledon, 1973 is a moment frozen in time—power, poise, and inspiration captured in stone.
