  • Museum Gallery at International Tennis Hall of Fame Named in Honor of 1968 Hall of Famer Mo Connolly
    Media Contact: Anne Marie McLaughlin Office: 401-324-6033 Cell: 401-626-7615 [email protected] Museum Gallery at International Tennis Hall of Fame Named in Honor of 1968 Hall of Famer Mo Connolly NEWPORT, R.I., July 15, 2011— In 1953, Maureen “Mo” Connolly Brinker captured all four major tournament titles, becoming the first woman in history to achieve a calendar-year Grand Slam, and forever claiming herself a spot as one of the most successful American athletes of all time. For her achievements, Connolly Brinker was inducted to the International Tennis Hall of Fame & Museum in 1968, where she has been celebrated ever since. On July 9, during Hall of Fame Induction Weekend, Connolly Brinker was honored once more when a gallery in the Museum at the International Tennis Hall of Fame was named in her honor, thanks to the generous support of her family and the Maureen Connolly Brinker Tennis Foundation. During Hall of Fame Weekend, a ribbon cutting ceremony was hosted in the Museum’s 1950’s and 1960’s Gallery, Named in Loving Memory of Maureen Connolly Brinker. “Mo Connolly Brinker was undoubtedly one of the greatest champions of tennis, and her family and foundation have continued to be great supporters of the sport in her name,” said Mark L. Stenning, CEO of the International Tennis Hall of Fame & Museum. “We are grateful for their support of the International Tennis Hall of Fame & Museum and we are pleased for the opportunity to work with them to honor Mo and to preserve the history of tennis.” The gallery highlights great moments in tennis during the era which Connolly Brinker competed, including photos and video of international tennis stars, highlights of the Wightman and Fed Cup competitions, and a focus on the Australian Davis Cup team.

Stort intresse har på senare år fästs vid sportifieringsprocessen, alltså den process varmed företeelser – vanligtvis folkliga lekar eller lekfulla tävlingar – övergår till att bli sporter. I all- männa ordalag kan man säga att det handlar om en disciplineringsprocess; leken, sponta- niteten, friheten till och med, ska kontrolleras till förmån för standardiserade regler byggda på rationell grund, med övervakningssystem, rättskipning, ja till och med straffutmätning. En sådan beskrivning är inte ovanlig i idrottskritiska sammanhang, men riktigt så illa är det naturligtvis inte. Den förste att systematiskt beskriva och undersöka sportifieringsprocessen var Allen Guttmann, och han identifierade sju aspekter med vilkas hjälp man kan spåra över- gången från spontan lek till organiserad sport, nämligen – med Hans Bolling ord – sekulari- sering, lika chans för alla, specialisering, gemensamma regler, byråkratisering, kvantifiering och rekord. Det här teori- och metodverktyget används idag ofta vid studium av asiatiska kampsporter och dylikt, men också för att förklara varför gamla folkliga tävlingar, som exem- pelvis varpa, inte sportifierats.
