In the history of tennis only twelve people have won a personal Grand Slam. Australian Owen Davidson is one of them. His 15-year career is highlighted by 12 Grand Slam titles.
His partnership with Leslie Turner and Billie Jean King produced the personal Grand Slam in 1967, as Davidson captured the Australian, French, U.S. Open and Wimbledon championships. “Davo” went on to win the Australian Open doubles with Ken Rosewall in 1972, and the U.S. Open doubles with John Newcombe in 1973. Davidson won the mixed doubles at Wimbledon and the U.S. Open four times each. His four Wimbledon conquests made him the male player who won the most mixed doubles crowns at the All England Club. He is one of five men who have won the U.S. Open mixed doubles tournament four times.

Davidson was a valued member of five championship Australian Davis Cup teams from 1962-1967. Although doubles is his forte, he also plays an impressive singles game. A career highlight came in 1966 at the Wimbledon semi-finals, when he narrowly lost a thrilling five-set match to, eventual champion, Manolo Santana
