And Steffi won her last grand slam afterwards..... I am a Steffi fan and watched this game in 1999. I love Hingis also, especially after her return in 2013-14.....She done a mistake in her early days but when she actually retired in 2017, she was number one doubles player in the world with 25 grand slams..... Steffi is all time best without any doubt.... She conquered 22 grand slams only at the age of 29.....at that age Serena only got 8 .... no comparison..... And in the last two grand slams in her career Steffi won one (this video) and became runners up in the other (actually injured during semifinal)..... True champion
I was deployed to Rhein Main during the French and got to watch this match live. Steffi Graf schooled Hingis. I loved it when Hingis finally broke and had her temper tantrum and started serving underhanded. It was glorious.
At a young age she was best, won Jr. French singles at age 12 and also at 13, also Jr. Wimbledon age 13. Won Jr. ITF World Championship at 13. Jr. Titles were against players up to age 18. Beat 28th rank player at age 14. Won Senior Double Tournament at age 15 with same 28th rank player as partner.Was number 1 in singles at age 16. Was 3rd woman to be number 1 in both doubles and singles at same time. Won numberous singles and doubles titles by age 22. That no one can compare to by that age.
I was twelve when this match happened and I was the biggest Hingis fan. I admired her so much and wanted to be just like her. After this match I was so embarrassed that I cried. For her and also because I'd liked her. It doesn't matter if she was right. In this same match the umpire made some calls in Hingis' favour that were wrong. Graf just got on with the match instead of having a meltdown. Hingis was also leading comfortably at this point, why was she so bothered? And why would she be stupid enough to walk across to the other side? And why would Graf give up the point? If she even knew whether it was in or out. That's literally what you have referees for. As for the crowd - had Hingis not insulted not only Graf but also a French player before the match, been arrogant and bratty and downright mean, they probably wouldn't have turned on her so quickly. Her "bathroom break", the endless discussions, the melodrama after every lost point, the underhand serve... She brought this on herself. She might've been only 18 and under a lot of pressure but a lot of things came together here.
Yes...and being 18 is not an excused. Steffi was so mature on 18, she won calender golden Slam, never show bad manner such as Hingis at that age. I'm sorry if my English is not good
@@erikkusuma2206 Cori Gauff is 18 old today and already more matured than Hingis ever will be. Or look at Iga Swiatek, a great champion, supporting Ukraine. The behaviour of Hingis was just unforgiveable.
It was an extremely close call. No one could have been sure if the ball was in or out. The point could, therefore, have been replayed. Hingis's reaction was ridiculously over-the-top; Graf was the ultimate beneficiary.
i do also remember this very clearly,and without knowing it,it was a turning point for both players.the funny hingis's hairdress, the professionalism that always has been held by steffi,the the audience's intromission.because of this little spoiled baby tantrum, hingis didn't know she was giving steffi a huge chance of recovery(6-4,2-0)and she got upset and lost concentration.steffi's very last grand slam,and martina would never won another one ever more.
Hingis had bad mouthed Graf in the past. To see her not only lose but lose to Graf pleased me no end! I used to always root against her when she made the arrogant remark, "Graf has had her time."
Hingis made comments about Steffis "old fashioned tennis" and she said Steffis time was over. She had no respect for the best female tennis player ever, and got punished for it, like she deserved. There is no better motivation then an arrogant opponent. That is the reason Hingis lost in my opinion.
Totally stupid on Hingis' part. Every player gets calls like this every match. You live with it, it usually equals out. She had the match in her bag, Graf was broken. Hingis was one break up already and this is the first play of the game. Bad moment to turn full asshole and break her own momentum. Good. Asshole behavior should be penalized.
Why was she complaining so much? She already won the first set and was up 2 in the second set. Every tennis player has bad calls against them, just brush it off and continue. The crowd is clearly in favor of Graf.
Pingu was stroppy because somewhere subconsciously she feared Graf was a better player. The fear came again when she served for the match. And the fear became reality when she lost. Steffi was just class, class, class all the way - laughing at Pingu's childishness and thumping forehand winners and slicing the beautiful backhand. Game, set and match Miss Graf.
You DO NOT go to your opponents side in order to check a spot. This is as bad as it gets. That's why you have linesmen. McEnroe at his worst, most boorish, moments never went over to an opponents side.
The french crowd was right on that one. As much as I do not like Steffi Graf for winning everything after the Seles stabbing, I was on Steffi's side that day based on Martina Hingis's attitude on that day and I do believe that it cost her the match because Steffi had the entire stadium cheering for her after that incident
@kuklisz absolutely! The lineswoman and the chair umpire were both looking at a mark much further towards the middel of the court... Tough for her, but there was no way to change that. Besides, it was a stupid reaction, since she had the first set and was leading with a break in the second...
Actually she didn't loose her cool over this. She was probably right with that call but the supervisors wouldn't change a question of pure line calling. She did get the code violation but because she crossed to Graf's side to check the mark herself.
This match pretty much showed us how talent is incomplete without discipline and decency. From being one set up and 2-0 in the second set, Martina Hingis went on to lose the match. And if that wasn't bad enough, she never got to win the French Open (the only singles GS title missing in her repertoire). Also, she appeared in the finals of 4 GS (singles) over the next 4 years), not winning any of them, before retiring at the age of 22. She did make two comebacks later but her days of singles dominance were long gone.
Hingis has always been a spoiled child, mainly because that who she was. But, she tried to stand up against a crowd that thought was actually watching a football match or something. Also, she was right. That ball was in. And if Steffi was the role model she's been portrait as, she'd said so to the judge as well....
If someone stab Hingis when she was at number 1, maybe a lot of people would say she lost in a lot it tournaments because of stabbing. The fact is without stabbing, she still lost the game. I mean, if Gunther did not stabbed Seles, There was no guarantee that Seles would still good and consistent at that moment
Idiot, she is not going to overrule a judge if it's in her favor, she won't win anyway, it doesn't matter, whatever is called is called, it's like a pitcher in baseball overruling an umpire on a strike 3, whats he going to do? Say wait that was a ball and give it to the opposing team? That's the most ignorant stupid thing anyone has ever said on here!

Never before I've seen a tennis player to invade the part of court of his/her opponent to contest an umpire decision. It was a shame! And Steffi has behaved like a true lady. If I had been in the shoes of Steffi I would broke my racquet on the head of Martina.

She was right, and only wanted the truth. As a young woman with some guts went to fight for it.. But only then she got a point down.., this is crazy! The umpire n lines have no clue.. She shouldn't get a point down.. I don't understand here you, haters people, who are saying she acted wrong.. and all the bad things about her.. You're wrong and out of reality..
She is the most honest n loving person I have ever known! And best tennis player for me too..
If that was Dinara she would say that the ball was in Thats why i like that girl just like what happened to her 2008 QF match against azarenka where she said to the umpire that the ball was in and the point was given to azarenka not to think that dinara is already losing the match.
Well that year hingis turn very arrogant.first was when she was interviewed in the 1999 Australian open conference before her match against Amelie mauresmo where she was so despective and unrespectful to Amelie due that Amelie expressed to the reporters her sexual orientation.than months before the 1999 Roland garros hingis said that Jana novotna and Steffi graf were to old to be playing tennis.but Steffi gave to to Martina a lesson on how humble a person might be.lesson that hingis still hasn't learn that if we analize the reason of why she divorced in 3 times.
This incident is the reason why the french public disliked her so much. Hingis move to check the mark was just forbidden by rules. French crowds don't like players acting like spoiled brats with ref or opponent. After this point, all the public was against her.
I watched it live at the time...It was like the best game ever... Martina thought she was going to win, and behaved like a bitch...Steffi saved like 2 or 3 match points and then won the game... it was like the best lesson ever.
John Feeney right or not, you don't risk to lose it all when you are 1 set lead and 2-0 in a grand slam final... It's a hard work to reach this... and you have to be stupid or young to behave like this which was the case. Pity. Graf like Federer have always been true champions because they kept calm in crucial moments.
Yes that's true...she's too arogant, too confident, she's act like no one can defeat her. And in the end she ended up with only 5 grand Slams. What a pity
I don't think that see lost control at all...she kept her cool under a LOT of Criticism and did what she thought was right.....she stood up for what she thought was a good and fair shot
Martina solo mostró la inmadurez que tenia y sigue teniendo. Esto fue una falta de respeto para una de la mas grandes tenistas de todos los tiempos. Saben que e slo peor que Martina iba ganando set arriba 2-0 en el segundo set, por Dios!!! pierdes el control y pierdes el partido.
What a pity that IT WAS INSIDE❗❗❗😡 Maybe Hingis acted like a child but SHE WAS RIGHT to get angry, was the refree blind or something⁉ I've been so sorry for Hingis, she was just a teenager who can't handle with her emotions... 😔😔😔
Tomris ÇETİN i've seen in a game...i forget which one..but steffi has through the same case..but she just threw out (sign) her hand and never act like this
Was just teenager? Hingis was number 1 player at that time. Steffi and other player never acted like that at the same age. So being 18 was not an excused for being act like that. Sorry if my English is not good
@@erikkusuma2206 18 is 18 if number one or not. Martina is a human with emotions and the crowd was so rude to this charming young lady, i understand her reactions!
Pierce made it to # 3 Single, #3 Doubles, Novotna # 2 Single #1 doubles. Venus (made it to #1Single and #1 double) was born June 17, 1980, Hingis Sept. 30, 1980 so Venus was slightly older. Martinez earned over $11 million made it to #3 I think, and Mauresemo born July 5 1979, made it to #. All are older than Her, although Venus only by a few months.
part2.after that lesson,and then when she lost wimbledon in1st round,i began to feel simpathy for her,and in my mind there was the ilusion that this would be like a public lesson for kids,in terms of "you may be very talented,but if you don't behave,it may bring troubles to you,but life will gave you a 2nd chance.."i was wrong,the girl never won a grand slam after that,she lost to capriati who became hingis's nightmare,then she got sick,came back,struggled for her old position and the retirement
Por qué decir que Martina pierde el control ?? Por reclamar que fue buena?? Si en aquellos tiempos habría la tecnología de hoy seguramente marcaría " IN " y el público en vez de hacer abucheos la aplaudiría 👏👏👏👏 Martina es lo Más!!
Aquel día su comportamiento fue nefasto, ya había faltado al respeto a su oponente tachandola de "vieja" horas antes, encaró al juez de silla subiendose a la silla , lloriqueó como una malcriada al finalizar el partido.......falló en todos los sentidos. A mi me encantaba a pesar de tener a veces actitudes un poco de niña , pero aquel día se pasó independientemente de que tuviera razón en esa bola. Lo peor de todo es que después de aquello su carrera cayó en picado y no volvió a ser la misma. Moralmente aquello le debió de golpear muy fuerte y es una lastima . Si hubiese tenido mas entereza la hubieramos disfrutado mas años y con unas cuantas victorias más.
Up a set and a break and she decided to make more of a call than was needed, just plain dumb. She lost control here, and eventually lost the match. Nobody to blame but herself. A lesson for us all.
@Hoffenheim08 ; .. also, Martina then went to see it and she were pointing exactly were she hit it.., so she knew.. and saw. Even Graf knew,, but wouldn't tell.., well.. shame thru now.. have a honest life mate..
Hingis was a great player. If she did not have those ankle injuries early in her career which forced her first retirement, she would have had a big rivalry with Serena.
When Serena and Venus were younger. Richard would make them play against young boys who cheat. this made them stronger and if a call went against them that they knew was in they could handle it better
Exactly Hawk eye will never be used at the french however that umpire did walk to the wrong spot, but if you are down like Graf would you have said where the ball landed, Like hell i would.
Well, some of us whine. Some stay cool. Some swear. Some cry. None of these gives the right to the audience to boo and disturb the player. That was not a football match that you can distract other team players. In brief, the audience should also have shut their mouths up :)
All teh years referies make wrong decision. in all sport is like that. You have to live with that. A classy player knows it ! Hingis is just to arrogant !!! And The French Crowd hate that !!!
And Steffi won her last grand slam afterwards..... I am a Steffi fan and watched this game in 1999.

First class comment..
Everything is relative.
The ball was out...
I watched it live at the time...It was like the best game ever... Martina thought she was going to win, and behaved like a bitch...Steffi saved like 2 or 3 match points and then won the game... it was like the best lesson ever.
After that Martina loss matches Her ego was broken her attitude in this match was so bad !
HIngis 99, Mac 84, same story. They were about to win RG easily but lost their concentration for a stupid detail.
Damn, Martina looks HOT here!! I love the way she is wearing her hair in this match. Cute, cute, cute!!!!
Yes😍
Again I say Hingis was right, and Steffi knew it
the ball was out
John Feeney You are right.
John Feeney right or not, you don't risk to lose it all when you are 1 set lead and 2-0 in a grand slam final... It's a hard work to reach this... and you have to be stupid or young to behave like this which was the case. Pity. Graf like Federer have always been true champions because they kept calm in crucial moments.
Graf is a dickhead
@UCxEYs-jffS0YYTFbDa8EbQA You're a dickhead! She's one of the greatest ever!
Carreer Hingis end here :P
Yes that's true...she's too arogant, too confident, she's act like no one can defeat her. And in the end she ended up with only 5 grand Slams. What a pity
@@erikkusuma2206 Hingis career ended with 25 Grand Slams alltogether in Singles, doubles and mixed
@Der Hinko i mean in single title.
Yes and God say it was good an it was good.
@@erikkusuma2206 yeah arrogant bitch.
I don't think that see lost control at all...she kept her cool under a LOT of Criticism and did what she thought was right.....she stood up for what she thought was a good and fair shot
she wasnt called the "swiss miss" for nothing.
I Love Hingis.:)
Martina solo mostró la inmadurez que tenia y sigue teniendo.
Esto fue una falta de respeto para una de la mas grandes tenistas de todos los tiempos.
Saben que e slo peor que Martina iba ganando set arriba 2-0 en el segundo set, por Dios!!! pierdes el control y pierdes el partido.
that is why I say poor Martina.
Better to name this video: WHEN THE CROWD AND UMPIRE LOOSE CONTROL, CORRECTNESS AND FAIRNESS..
Quite funny to argue that 12 years later!
2:54 haha Hingis flips the bird to the umpire...LOVE IT
What a pity that IT WAS INSIDE❗❗❗😡
Maybe Hingis acted like a child but SHE WAS RIGHT to get angry, was the refree blind or something⁉
I've been so sorry for Hingis, she was just a teenager who can't handle with her emotions... 😔😔😔
+Illya Kuryakin yup favouritism is wrong plus she's a teenager I act above her but y'all were probably living with ur mom at her age doing nothing
It wasn't right to have a tantrum. She could have still put up a fight but she got herself so upset over this that she lost it
Tomris ÇETİN i've seen in a game...i forget which one..but steffi has through the same case..but she just threw out (sign) her hand and never act like this
Was just teenager? Hingis was number 1 player at that time. Steffi and other player never acted like that at the same age. So being 18 was not an excused for being act like that. Sorry if my English is not good
@@erikkusuma2206 18 is 18 if number one or not. Martina is a human with emotions and the crowd was so rude to this charming young lady, i understand her reactions!
WOOOH! YEAH!! tenis is awsome
what was the final score in this match? Hingis lost in 3 sets or 2?
Hingis lost to Graf in 3 sets 6-4, 5-7 and 2-6. I watched it LIVE on TV 21 years ago. Super duper drama, though !
@@jefftottenham1191 i appreciate the 10 year later reply :)
hypercarbon hahahaha .....
I so had a crush on Martina Hingis. She is a hottie!
Pierce made it to # 3 Single, #3 Doubles, Novotna # 2 Single #1 doubles. Venus (made it to #1Single and #1 double) was born June 17, 1980, Hingis Sept. 30, 1980 so Venus was slightly older. Martinez earned over $11 million made it to #3 I think, and Mauresemo born July 5 1979, made it to #. All are older than Her, although Venus only by a few months.
i love Roland Garros :) , and i miss Hingis ;(
part2.after that lesson,and then when she lost wimbledon in1st round,i began to feel simpathy for her,and in my mind there was the ilusion that this would be like a public lesson for kids,in terms of "you may be very talented,but if you don't behave,it may bring troubles to you,but life will gave you a 2nd chance.."i was wrong,the girl never won a grand slam after that,she lost to capriati who became hingis's nightmare,then she got sick,came back,struggled for her old position and the retirement
I really like both ! and you know what, emotions can run out of control easily on such high competition level,that said, I think Martina did well
Steffi
Graf
The
Greatest
of
All
Time
Monica was her Kryptonite !!! Monica was the best player I ever saw.
Por qué decir que Martina pierde el control ?? Por reclamar que fue buena?? Si en aquellos tiempos habría la tecnología de hoy seguramente marcaría " IN " y el público en vez de hacer abucheos la aplaudiría 👏👏👏👏 Martina es lo Más!!
Aquel día su comportamiento fue nefasto, ya había faltado al respeto a su oponente tachandola de "vieja" horas antes, encaró al juez de silla subiendose a la silla , lloriqueó como una malcriada al finalizar el partido.......falló en todos los sentidos. A mi me encantaba a pesar de tener a veces actitudes un poco de niña , pero aquel día se pasó independientemente de que tuviera razón en esa bola. Lo peor de todo es que después de aquello su carrera cayó en picado y no volvió a ser la misma. Moralmente aquello le debió de golpear muy fuerte y es una lastima . Si hubiese tenido mas entereza la hubieramos disfrutado mas años y con unas cuantas victorias más.
In professional Tango Dancing (and probably Ballett) there these woman meet also
@kevinandrew791 no problem, i apologize for assuming you meant something that you didn't. Take care :-)
She looks sooo cute in this video...
#1 tennis player n the world Steffi graf she's great love it!!!!
This is like the biggest kitchen I've ever seen.
Childish behaviour from one of the most over-rated players. Huge mistake to underestimate Steffi - but then Hingis always was a pretender and a brat.
Up a set and a break and she decided to make more of a call than was needed, just plain dumb. She lost control here, and eventually lost the match. Nobody to blame but herself. A lesson for us all.
@Hoffenheim08 ;
.. also, Martina then went to see it and she were pointing exactly were she hit it.., so she knew.. and saw.
Even Graf knew,, but wouldn't tell.., well.. shame
thru now..
have a honest life mate..
Yes...She would have won the match had she "just let it go".
Hingis was a great player. If she did not have those ankle injuries early in her career which forced her first retirement, she would have had a big rivalry with Serena.
I'm here because of Cracked.
I support hingis
Many people support Putin.
So what?
I think she did you think she never it really doesnt matter I dont want to argue they both played great tennis in their professions :)
I miss Martina
When Serena and Venus were younger. Richard would make them play against young boys who cheat. this made them stronger and if a call went against them that they knew was in they could handle it better
Exactly Hawk eye will never be used at the french however that umpire did walk to the wrong spot, but if you are down like Graf would you have said where the ball landed, Like hell i would.
I mean Graf knew the ball was in and they where looking at the wrong mark
Better at an early age than any of them at that same age.
I admire Steffi for her great personality in her matches ; however, she should have given the point to Hingis without considering the score.
Well, some of us whine. Some stay cool. Some swear. Some cry. None of these gives the right to the audience to boo and disturb the player. That was not a football match that you can distract other team players. In brief, the audience should also have shut their mouths up :)
@Max E Are you sure about it since they spent some time to notice the mark
What a karen
All teh years referies make wrong decision. in all sport is like that. You have to live with that. A classy player knows it ! Hingis is just to arrogant !!! And The French Crowd hate that !!!
Brat said that Steffi´s old, here time is over before the match #karma
Thank goodness for the Chase review. Now this bs can't happen.
Martina Hingis is 18 years old here. dont judge her.
Why not?
