ESPN's Arthur __ Courage Award (4)

I believe the answer is:

ashe

(Other definitions for ashe that I've seen before include "US tennis player Arthur, 1975 Wimbledon champion" , "Arthur, first black Wimbledon men's singles champion, 1975" , "Former tennis star" , "tennis champ" , "Arthur ___, American tennis player 1943-1993" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
