The event was held at the iconic Houston Astrodome, known as the "Eighth Wonder of the World," with a record-breaking attendance of over 30,000 spectators. The match was a symbol of the ongoing debate about gender equality in sports, with King fighting for equal prize money and recognition for women in tennis.
