Four friends. One bold idea. This She What? episode pulls back the curtain on a movement that changed the future of women's sports in Philadelphia. Ashley Lunkenheimer and Alex Niedbalski-Sykes share how friendship, persistence, and believing in a dream helped bring the WNBA and professional women's tennis (back) to Philly. The Philadelphia Sisters prove that when women support other women, entire communities benefit.

You can follow the Philly Sisters journey on their website or on their Instagram. And don't miss out on the chance to attend the upcoming tennis tournament, Ennoble Care Philly Open, from August 23 - 29. Tickets and event details are here
