Who is Bill Talbert’s wife Nancy Pike?

Nancy Pike was the wife of legendary tennis player Bill Talbert. She had two sons with the tennis player; Pike Talbert and Peter Talbert.

Theirs was a lovely family, they always spend a lot of time watching their father play.

There was a time when she realized that the women who showed up at the game were always feeling uncomfortable due to the clothes they wore, thus the outfit of the century.

She was the first woman to ever wore shorts with a hat to a game. She was dressed like a professional tennis player.

It was funny at first but the other women picked it up and started to wear them and it made them more comfortable standing in the hot sun for several hours to watch and cheer the players.
