A superb match between Mary and Martina. Some great all-court tennis. This was a massive win for Mary because Martina was the hottest player that year after winning three grand slams and was almost unbeatable.
Mary had some great wins at the tour finals. Sabatini and Navratilova in 1993. Graf in 1994. Hingis in 1997. Clijsters, Mauresmo and Davenport in 2005.
in this match, Mary is very impressive. She runs the ball the way she wants all the time. The long lines, angle variations on each keystroke. Great power too. It's really incredible, the potential that Mary Pierce had. On her best days, she was flying over women's tennis!
