LONDON â The moment was both overwhelming and unbelievable. After U.S. gymnast Gabby Douglas made history Thursday by becoming the first African-American to win the all-around Olympic gold, there was so much to process.
She became the first African American to win a women's title at the U.S. Open in 1957 and repeated her victory in 1958. Althea Gibson also was the first African American to win the All-England Lawn Tennis Women's Singles Championship at Wimbledon in 1957 and repeated in 1958. After retiring from tennis, she became the first African-American woman to earn her card in the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA), in 1964.
