Martina started so strongly winning French and Wimbledon along with winning most of the winter stops on Virginia. Slims stops. Then after losing the Wimbledon final Chris went to work winning summer tourneys , US Open, her last and winning AO over Martina on grass. Martina was 1982 number one by a whisker.
This match and those two years 2000 through 2001 makes you wonder how great could Venus have been had she not been plagued with injuries and an autoimmune deficiency illness.
Graf was awesome. To win a minimum of 4 singles titles in each of the Grand Slams is a huge accomplishment. I don't believe anyone has done that - some have 3 singles titles but not four.
Seeing how well women played over 50 years ago, with a varied and funny game across the board, and how boring their matches are now, it hurts the heart! Today they shoot cannons with the fundamentals and the service but rarely give the impression of knowing how to use a good tactic and when the ball falls near the net almost all of them find themselves in a bad situation and don't know what to do!
Hingis was a tennis chess player but this wasnt a very successful strategy against graf. Graf was quick enough to get to most if her shots due to her speed. And she had the better fitness/ stamina to wear her down, as happened in this match. Especially, she hated Grafs slice which added to the fitness problem, having to bend down to return it for three long sets clearly wasnt one of her favourite past times. Hingis was a technically apt plsyer with great shot making abilities, but she she was lucky to have most of her success in a transitional era, so, winning 5 GS and finishing 3 years at no 1. all in all she was an Interims champ. Her best year was 1997 when graf had to leave the tour due to constant knee problems . And from there she would never again win more than 1 GS a year, unable to dominate the tour. Once hard hitting and fit players (unlike late career seles or early career davenport) arrived on the tour Hingis fortunes dropped. And injuries forced her out only a bit later.
Ana Ivanovic's first ever match on TV. 👍😊I still remember that match today. I saw right away that she had a killer forehand and was going to be a great tennis player.
Guys come on. Sampras was a greatest on his day. His serve would impress and destroy anyone but the big three. Because the big three were born on a different century. Please, acknowledge that. Every period has its king. And yes, Agassi was the most overrated champion of all time.
Chris was so tough to beat, it required strength, precision, stamina and brains..her style is difficult to describe, i think Martina Hingis was most similar to her and even Chris admitted it, she was really backing her up..pitty Martina didnt want to admit it
She always opens up the court too much, senseless against a fast opponent 😢 she should have broken down the weak Sanchez forehand, allows Sanchez to move her around too much
Steffi was lucky she came along against players like Sanchez Viacarrio as opposed to women who had power off both wings. Her backhand was a liability against the power players.
