| Within months of turning pro, Seles defeated Steffi Graf in straight sets to become the youngest ever French Open champion, aged 16 years and 6 months. She won the Australia, French and US Opens in both 1991 and 1992. In 1993 a fan of her biggest rival, Steffi Graf, ran on court during a match and stabbed her in the shoulder. Seles made a comeback 2 years later and won the Australian Open but she was never the same force pre injury. Infamous for starting the annoying loud grunting commonly heard on the women's tour. |
