Was it their last slam encounter? If so, Chris had the last say in their slam rivalry. But an anticlimax anyway. Martina won more overall and there were none of the intense emotions of the 1986 French final match.
yes thanks for getting this one up, a kind of forgotten win that Evert had over Martina at the aussie open, not a classic match though...a poor match for Martina.

@johnblacklovesmar If they do, you'd never hear them over the shrieking from the women or the grunting from the men.

I have always liked how both Evert and Navratilova acknowledge the great shots by their opponents. Does any player playing today do that?

Good for Chris - she played so well in this match and gave a really generous speech about Martina.
