Fred perry career...
Frederick John “Fred” Perry (18 May 1909 – 2 February 1995) was a championship-winning English tennis and table tennis player who won 10 Majors including eight Grand Slams and two Pro Slams single titles, as well as six Major doubles titles.
Perry won three consecutive Wimbledon Championships from 1934 to 1936 and was World Amateur number one tennis player during those three years.
From 1927 to 1967, the International Lawn Tennis Federation treated all amateur champions as though they no longer existed, from the moment they turned professional.
Perry, who turned pro at the end of the 1936 season, suffered the same fate.
Only in 1968, with the introduction of “Open Tennis” did this state of affairs come to an end.
After becoming disillusioned with the class-conscious nature of the Lawn Tennis Club of Great Britain, the working-class Perry moved to the United States before becoming a naturalised US citizen in 1938.
In 1942, he was drafted into the US Air
