The best American doubles team consisted of the 18-year-old Helen Wills, who won the Olympic singles gold medal, and the 38-year-old Hazel Wightman. In the final, they won easily over Britain’s Phyllis Covell and Kitty McKane, 7-5, 8-6. Wightman won four US Singles titles (1909-11 and 1919) and 16 US titles overall, but is better known as the donor of the Wightman Cup, the women’s international team trophy, and the female equivalent of the Davis Cup.
