When you talk about the state of Kentucky’s greatest athletes you certainly have some common names. Muhammed Ali, Paul Hornung, Wes Unseld, etc. are no brainers. But I think we should take a moment to honor what is almost unquestionably the state’s greatest female tennis player, Julie Ditty-Qualls, who passed away at 42 from cancer on Tuesday. As someone who works in the tennis community, I can tell you that this loss has left a hole in our state that won’t be replaced. Her career is unparalleled in tennis in Kentucky but her impact expands far beyond that.
