    Saw her playing at a European junior tournament in Chur (Switzerland) in 1990 or 1991. She was 11 years old at most. Her two significantly older, taller, physically stronger opponents on that Saturday may have managed to score a game or so. If I had to describe how she played, my attempt would fail before I even said one word. There are certain things in life one cannot describe.

    @@anthonydecastro6938 well yeah but she still won enough tournaments to retain the number 1 ranking for a while. this tournament really solidified her decline. she played well against Venus in the next round and was the heavy favorite to win against Jennifer but she had other plans. After this, the big babes( Jennifer, Venus, Serena, Lindsay) we're beating her pretty regularly. Everyone in the comments was praising Martina but this was really Serena's match to lose - She lost a lot of matches that she should have won in 2001 and trained hard in the off season to start winning again.

    True. The 00s are the best era for women tennis. Williams Sisters, Hingis, Henin, Davenport, Capriati, Clijsters, Sharapova, Mauresmo. So many multiple grand slam champions. And so many top players with different playing styles. These days everything is about power. Which is still ok if they can reduce the unforced errors. But when all players go for broke too many times it creates too many unforced errors, and creates inconsistencies. Not many players can play the power game the way that williams sisters and sharapova does. I think the younger generations player needs to hold back some of their shots and not go for broke all the time.

    Hingis’s change of angles with last minute flick of the wrists keep her opponents guessing. It’s difficult to read if she is going down the line or crosscourt and there are no patterns to her stroke play. That’s why a bigger hitter like Serena has problems teeing on shots that land in the service box. Very smart player Martina. Really needed a good service though. She never worked on it.

I've never worked out exactly why she lost it so intensely over one bad call. The French crowd were awful though.

    You recognize the correlation between youth, injuries and going on tour. This is why Mr. Williams limited his girls junior touring schedule. He was called all kinds of disrespectful name for this by the USTA people and media people. In hindsight, he looks like a genius for his vision and guidance for the Williams sisters. And, as he foretold, they had long successful tennis careers. They have been conscious international embassadors of tennis and inspired millions to play. Currently, Serena is two major wins away from being the number 1 all time major tournament winner in tennis. Venus has been magnificent and has significant multitudes of tournament wins. When Venus casted a shadow over her sister in the early days, Mr. Williams said the younger Serena would be better in the future. Now, we see what he talked about decades ago.

    The fluidity of Hingis's game combined with an ultra-competitiveness clearly separated her in terms of appeal from the other female players of that era. Unfortunately she was literally run out of the very top tier of singles by the Williams' and other power players. They kept the smaller Hingis constantly sprinting all over the court, resulting in chronic lower body injuries and ultimately retirement.

    This was a great match. Granted this was early in Serena’s career, but she always struggled against good returners of serve. Without that weapon to fall back on, she struggled right through her career. But love that drop volley to save match point. She was so good at the net when she was younger. The last decade in her career, she couldn’t volley to save her life. Hingis is just one of the smartest players to ever play in the women’s side.

    I believe they played 23 times, Hingis winning 12 - and this was their most competitive and best match. Hingis probably one of the most intelligent champions of all time. She played tennis like a chess match, anticipating shot placement well in advance against much stronger players. Her mother coached her with this “no unforced errors” mentality , so that she gave away very few free points. Add that to mental toughness at 1-4 down in the third set, and it’s easy to see how she maintained the number one ranking for so long in one of the toughest eras in women’s tennis. Besides the Williams sisters, Hingis had to contend with Graf, Seles, Davenport, Capriati, et al. Without those ankle injuries, would have been interesting to see how much longer her singles career might have been.
