Margaret Court

"“I wasn’t one who looked for it, I didn’t know I was getting it, I was very honoured when I was told I was"

""This was for my tennis and I think it was a long time coming and I’m very honoured … We did nothing but play for our nation"."

""I was used as a high profile person to get some opinions and views across – but I have nothing against homosexual people or transgender people"."

"Everything we have in life is a choice. That’s the freedom God gave us. That’s their choice. I don’t hate them for their choice"

"I think a lot of it is because of being a minister and making a stand for my beliefs. I have had a lot of bullying. But we should be able to say what we believe. I’ve got nothing against anybody"

""I’ve admired her as a player … But I don’t think she has ever admired me"."
