AUSTRALIANA
A look at Australia’s incredible sporting record of the 1950s, which included winning tennis at Wimbledon five times, having a firm grasp of the Davis Cup, swimmers had a near monopoly on world records, middle-distance runners led the world and the sprinters and hurdlers were almost unbeatable. Australia’s golfers won the British Open five times in eight years, its cricketers retained the Ashes, the Olympic equestrian team won two gold medals and an Australian had become the world motor racing champion.
