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.

Reviews

great design, print texture is a little rough

"I have sensory preferences, and I really like it when my graphic tees make sure that the ink is soft and moves with the fabric. This one definitely moves with the fabric, but it's flaky and a little tacky to the touch. Not a huge issue, but definitely noticeable compared to their other shirt lines. All the disney shirts seem to have this issue."

funny as hell but what my friend said kind of ruined it for me

"I loved this shirt, but my friend said it looked like Hugh Jackman is. . . finishing. . . if you catch my drift. I can't unsee it now. But other than that, it's a great shirt. I would give it five stars, but the print is a little sticky to the touch and a tad flaky. Some of their shirts have this problem, and others don't, so just be aware."

Nice shirt

"Looking at it online, I was worried how well the black design would show up on a black shirt. But it shows well. The shirt is very comfortable, fits true to size. Shipping was fast."

Great fitting shirt

"The shirt is super comfortable and fits like a glove"

Gary H. (5/5)

I really wanted to love this shirt

"The design is so iconic, and the coloring is peak. I'm a big Star Wars fan, and I have bought shirts from their Star Wars line before, so this one was a bit of a letdown. I have the Imperial Army shirt and the Rebel shirt as well, and I love both of them. The prints on those feel smooth and like it is actually part of the fabric instead of a print stuck on top. This one feels like a print stuck on top. It is a big slab of ink in a square right in the middle. It's not super rigid or stiff, so it's not uncomfortable to wear, but it is noticeably less moldable than some of their other prints. I dislike how tacky or sticky the ink feels, and it hangs weird as a result (I like oversized shirts, so how a shirt lays on my body is very important to me). This one also has the issue of feeling flaky and like it won't last as long as some of their other designs. That being said, I will wear the shirt, and I love it, I just don't think it will go into my shirt hall of fame. I really wanted to love this shirt, but it is just okay. If you want a really good Star Wars shirt, I would look at those two designs I mentioned before. I was much more satisfied with those."

Devan M. (3/5)

Not great

"For the price of these shirts I was hoping for better quality. The fabric is so thin you can almost see through it."
