When players make their way onto the court at Arthur Ashe Stadium for the US Open, an iconic quote from Billie Jean King is cemented on a plaque as they walk by: "Pressure is a privilege."
BJK's phrase rings true as players make their way to compete in the largest tennis stadium in the world. An important reminder of the right they've earned to play under such stresses.
The origin of King's trademark line happened at the 2000 Fed Cup final-now known as the Billie Jean King Cup. King was captaining the US team, when star Lindsay Davenport asked her to say something to motivate her. King responded: 'Pressure is a privilege, and champions adjust.
And so, the impromptu motivation quote not only inspired Davenport and the US team to defeat Spain and win the cup, but it continues to drive individuals and athletes to handle pressure under great circumstances.

"My wife & I were in Columbus, Ohio for a Columbus Crew game and stopped by the Easton store to pick up merch and it was great! So much to look at and buy. Im a long time Homage fan so this was a great visit!! The employees were fantastic especially who I believe was the manager. All around great experience!!"
"Where do i start. These shirts fit amazingly the material is really soft and breathable. The cut of it is great and it makes your shoulders look huge. It’s not that cheap screen printing it’s like really high quality. I’m buying more soon."

"Great quote from one of my all time favorite movies Rocky III! Fits great!"
"Homage has really fallen off. The print quality is worse than a screen print I could do myself. Have several older shirts that were super high quality but not anymore. It’s shockingly bad. but will not be purchasing from homage again."
