Mrs. Billie Jean King won from Rosie Casals to reach her seventh Wimbledon tennis final today. Then Evonne Goolagong and Chris Evert came on the court for the long-awaited meeting between the 20 year old Australian who cavorted to fame by winning the title last year and the 17 year old marvel from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., who had a streak of 26 victories to Forest Hills last year and 12 in her baptismal in England. 
It was all it had been billed to be-a wildly fluctuating match that raged over the center court for 100 minutes before Evonne won, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4. It was a contest between the instinctive genius and natural flair of Evonne and the imperturbable mien and copybook style of young Chris.
And if it was loosely played in the early stages, it smoldered into flame midway through and erupted in those last heart-tugging moments into the great match of this Wimbledon.

Evonne Goolagong won at Wimbledon today. The 19 year old daughter of an Autralian aboriginal sheep-shearer won the All England women's tennis championship on the storied center court by defeating the great Mrs. Margaret Court.  The margin by which she destoyed her 28 year old Australian opponent defies belief. 
With a four game burst at the start and a streak of six games in a row to end it, the amazing youngster won by 6-4, 6-1 from the three-time Wimbledon champion who has taken more major titles than any other woman.
