    @Ilya Kuryakin Thanks for the English lesson! However, the fact that Monica has as you said the ugliest playing style in history of the open era and this player is at the same time great is at least contradictory. The"ugliest playing style" means: ugliest groundstrokes,ugliest power, precision,passing shots,winners,angles GS etc. By the way this ugliest playing style everyone everywhere bowed like Martina etc except Evert who never overcame that Monica won in Huston. Even Graf questioned after AO final 1993,admitted that she did not know how to deal with Monica. Isn't necessary to agree but your comment on Monica's playing style is at least inappropriate and completely exaggeraded. Personally i love to the fullest "the ugliest Monica's playing style.END

    @Ilya Kuryakin uneasthetic? Try again to find an other word! However something is wrong with you.We do not compare visually the two players and what you write is completely irrelevant to the topic you orginally came up with,that is the way of playing Monica. If that were our issue i would tell you that Sabatini is much more beautiful than Graf and therefore according to your reasoning most popular than Graf,but all these are as i said irrelervant.

    A better quality match than their 1991 semifinal encounter. And as amazingly talented as Sabatini was (her game was gorgeous to watch), this match shows what the difference is between a great player and a champion. While Sabatini took her foot off the pedal a bit in the last 4 games, Seles majorly stepped it up and roared towards the finish line.

    @@rolandgreen7484 Sabatini had won 7 of their last 8 meetings . That wimbledon final was Graf's only victory against Sabatini since 1990 and on grass it would be a huge shock if the result was different. You might also want to remember the 1990 US open final where Sabatini outplayed Graf, but I suspect the only thing you listen to is the sound of your own voice.

    This match illustrates the major problem with Gabi's game. She just didn't have the weapons to really take control of points, or win quick points. So much of her game was about inducing errors from her opponent by spoiling their game, and when that wasn't working she couldn't just punch through them like a Graf or Seles could. Obviously, her poor serve was one of the major factors in that.

    100% agree but Sabatini’s serve was more effective on clay. Def a more technical player, but had a beautiful one handed backhand that she could rip.

    Sabatini's racket sounds like it's strung at 50 lbs at best! I'm not a professional, but I like my racket strings tight! I was never a real Sabatini fan. But after Parche tried to murder Seles in German, Sabatini was the ONLY player who wanted to freeze Seles' ranking. Always pulled for her after that.

    People saying Gaby was talentless is hilarious! Gaby had a 76% win record in her career. Was in the top 10 best players in the world from 1986 to 1995 (in 1985 she was ranked 12). Gaby was also ranked in the top 5 from 1988 to 1993. Gaby also holds the record for most wins against current or former No.1 players. Gaby defeated steffi, Monica, Martina, Chris and aranxtra. Gaby was won the us open in 1990 def steffi. She also was runner up in the us open in 1988 and was 2 points away from winning Wimbledon serving at 6-5 in the third set in 1991! If Gaby had won Wimbledon she would of been no.1! She also won in Miami in 1989, the Italian open 4 times and 2 Virginia slims Championships (basically the biggest tournament outside the gs) in 1988 and 1994! Gaby also won a silver medal at the summer Olympics and was the first athlete from Argentina to win an Olympic medal!! She also won 27 career titles. I would say I’m terms of players in her era that were better then Gaby from 1985-1996 would be these players; 1. Steffi Graf 2. Monica Seles 3. Martina Navratilova 4. Aranxtra Sanchez Vicario 5. Chris Evert 6. Gabriela Sabatini 7. Conchita Martinez 8. Mary Joe Fernandez 9. Jana Novota 10. Manuela Maleeva Fragneire

    To think this would be her last French Open Championship due to a crazy Steffi Graf fan who got what he wanted in the end. Graf would win 11 of her 22 slams AFTER the Seles stabbing and Monica would never be the same player mentally or physically when she came back in 1995. Thank you Monica for coming back to tennis in 1995. You have shown nothing but grace and kindness when you came back and you will forever be the best female tennis player ever no matter what the record books show. You would have won so much more...
