Changes

While there have been many winners of different nationalities and ethnicity, there has been only one African American men's winner:  [[Arthur Ashe]], in a stunning victory over the heavily favored Jimmy Connors. In the women's competition, the African American sisters [[Venus Williams|Venus]] and [[Serena Williams]] dominated the ladies tournament during the 2000s, winning nine titles between them, including four all-Williams finals, and four ladies' doubles titles as well. The first non-white winner of the ladies' single was the [[Australia]]n Aborigine Evonne Goolagong, who won the title in 1971. When she won a second title in 1980, as Evonne Cawley, she became the first mother to win the title.
