We're talking sports and gender equality. Arguably one of the greatest tennis players of all time, Billie Jean King changed the sport for women. King won the infamous "Battle of the Sexes" match against Bobby Riggs in 1973. She has been a major advocate for gender equality throughout her life, and in the 1980s she became one of the first major athletes to publicly come out as being in a same sex relationship.
