  Great 2022 online article about Steffi: "Steffi Graf Is Still Too Famous for Steffi Graf"

  this is the match that made me get interested in tennis and started following Steffi. She made the game look so easy and she did it elegantly too! I also started picking up a tennis racket after this (no coaching, just tried to follow her forehand based on the VHS tape), and of course, to this day my forehand became my weakness because i just don't have the perfect timing like she does... Lol. Her forehand only works for her as she has the perfect timing!

  I think this is the greatest turnaround i&apos;ve ever watched on a tennis court.<br> From 5/7 0/2, all of a sudden, there is a hurricane swirling around Martina.<br>Winning shots are coming from everywhere.<br>The speed of her footwork, the pace and accuracy of her shots, this is truly exceptional.<br>Steffi became a champion of her own that peculiar day !

  This was the first tennis match I ever watched. &nbsp;A year later, I started playing tennis. &nbsp;Steffi is my all-time favorite tennis player and Martina is in my top 5 females. &nbsp;I love how inclusive the Duchess and Kent are with the ballboys and ball girls. &nbsp;They had a lot of class.

  Steffi said in an interview that she had been trying to pass Martina outright on the return, but when she went down a break in that second set she decided to try and get the ball at Martina&apos;s feet woth the return, and then try and pass her. It obviously worked very well.
