I agree with your statement however Monica was the one who would have made the history books according to all the tennis experts, Monica was that good and dominating Steffi 3-1 in slam finals and winning 7 of 8 slams she had entered before the stabbing and don't forget Monica was 4 years younger than Steffi and already had 8 slams at barely 19 and Steffi only 11 at 23 when the stabbing happened and Monica was only getting better and better in her domination of the world of tennis

Monica is the most gracious one in this report however she was the one that was robbed of her career, she would never be the same player again and would never regain her previous form
-
An absolute shame what happened to Monica's career, the stabbing changed the history books in Graf's favor which makes me sick
-
Rennae Stubbs is an idiot.....talking Steffi into playing that day! How disrespectful. You were gonna teach anyone anything by playing on and pretending nothing happened
-
Monica is so full of grace, even to this day.

Thanks for the upload!

i believe steffi when she said she tried to reach her in a private way etc. steffi hates the limelight and she is a very honest person.

@DEBBIEGIBSON22 Hi Debbie,
thanks for your great feedback. I so agree with you and I find it harsh that some people say Monica used it as an excuse to underperform. The AO final is pretty much the best level of focus, power and precision Monica achieved it's sad that we never go to see how far she could go.

@juju1305 I couldnt have put that better myself. Seles was definetly improving as a player and the ao93 final was a clear sign of that, its just a shame that we never got to see the player she would have become over the following couple of years. I always felt that when she came back late95 and from then on her fitness was always in question, motivation etc, she was never the same but then who would be after that happening to you.

i feel like balling everytime i watch this, Serena reminds me of the early Monica a bit as in when it comes to the slams and slam finals she is ready more than any other time of the year.teen monica was prbably the strongest mentally who ever played, i mean 8 slams by the age of 19! COME ON!
What happened to Monica was terrible. Her records and Steffi's would be absolutely different. Everyone who knows about tennis and is fair knows this simple fact.

it just sickens me to death knowing that mad man who in a blink of an eye destroys a major part of tennis. we as fans were robbed of what could be the best rivalry in tennis history and who knows how much they would've pushed each other to the very limits of immortality. both steffi and monica are legends and rightly so deserving!!!
