I really should have found a way to engineer it so that this one got posted back in mid-July. Why? So that I could tie the whole tennis theme of Superstar (Cold Case season 3, episode 17) in with the major tennis tournament happening at the time: Wimbledon. Such a wasted opportunity 
The episode opens with a university “Battle Of The Sexes” tennis match in 1973. It’s a charity event mirroring the famous pair of matches held for real in that year under that title. The fictional game is set just a few weeks after Bobby Riggs was beaten by Billie Jean King in the second match. Previously Riggs had won over Margaret Court. The Riggs/King game was televised nationally so is much better remembered. It was not without controversy. Riggs was much older that his female competitors was amongst the issues.
Of course, on Cold Case our tennis superstar winds up dead post-match. Did her on-court rival do it? Of course not, much to obvious. Will the new evidence her sister brings to the squad lead to a game-set-and-match for the killer?
