I am not a sports guy. But this profile (long read) about the decades-long relationship between Martina Navratilova and Chis Evert is just a terrific story. Trust me on this, read the first few paragraphs and I think you'll be hooked.

Long read.

I loved it.

"There are statues of Arthur Ashe at the U.S. Open, Fred Perry at Wimbledon, Rod Laver at the Australian Open and Rafael Nadal at the French Open.

The blazers who run the major championships have not yet commissioned sculptures of these two women, who so unbound their sport and gave the gift of professional aspiration to so many."

GREAT read!

"Lately, they have never been closer—a fact they refuse to cheapen with sentimentality. 'It’s been up and down, the friendship,' Evert says. At the ages of 68 and 66, respectively, Evert and Navratilova have found themselves more intertwined than ever, by an unwelcome factor. You want to meet an opponent who draws you nearer in mutual understanding? Try having cancer at the same time."
