Based on actual events, this television docudrama depicts the tennis match When Billie Beat Bobby in 1973. The Wimbledon champions, Billie Jean King (Hunter) and Bobby Riggs (Silver), face off in the Astrodome at the height of the feminist movement, and after Bobby beat Margaret Court, the number one seed at the time. There are no supplements. (Suzanne Hodges)
