Earlier this year, I wrote a blog post about the Hall of Fame investigating allegations of doubles champion Bob Hewitt sexually abusing girls he coached. Over the summer, the Hall of Fame hired lawyers to look into these claims. Additionally, the Hall of Fame was tasked with decision of whether or not to strip Hewitt of his Hall of Fame status.

Bob Hewitt, one of the greatest doubles players in the world (he won 15 Grand Slam mixed doubles and doubles tournaments) is facing allegations of sexual abuse from women he coached in the United States and South Africa from 1970-1990.
