- Steffi wasn't called Miss Forehand for nothing. Steffi Graf was born on June 14, 1969 in Brühl/Mannheim (Germany). For many, Steffi is the greatest of all time, even though Serena Williams won 23 Grand Slam titles and Magaret Court with 24 Grand Slam titles. What you can definitely say is that Steffi Graf is one of the greatest tennis players of all time. In 1988 Graf won the Golden Slam. Here you get a little insight into how good Steffi was.

Arguably the GOAT tennis player with GOAT forehand.
GOAT 🙌🙌🙌🙌
50 forehand winners in only these 6 matches. You could have done a 50,000 forehand winners from her entire career maybe more! She was the best
Steffi had every skill to the next level beyond any other including mental toughness.
Kinetic Energy = energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion
Steffi Graf is the only athletic tennis player with the truest form of kinetic energy when hitting her greatest forehand of all time!
The first few seconds is an incredible example of how gracefully fluid yet powerfully explosive her forehand is. I’m always in awe how Steffi is not only in constant motion but how her movement is incredibly synchronized, all while she builds up her kinetic energy to hit her famous forehand.
Love this!!! Now please give us 50 backhand winners. Her backhand was truly spectacular.
Even if the game was slower 30 years ago, particularly the speed of the first ball, Steffi's forehand is still one of the best shots of that era. It could stand comparison with that of today's top ten WTA players. It has to be said that today's players are all athletes.
Marion bartoli had belief in herself that Steffi Graff as a great tennis player doesn't have even being world no.1 to win Wimbledon.
Wimbledon is a grass court tournament and therefore amongst the medium surfaces. which means medium rallies dictated by serve and therefore less exertion of energy during a point and shorter matches in general. you get value for your shot! fat and short or tall and thin!
when you play 3 sets against 5 sets for men, it is always an advantage.
Marion Bartoli played a more strategic than a grind type of tennis in tournaments. good volleying skills as compared to Steffi Graff even in execution.
Marion Bartoli had the belief that she could win and in contrast to Steffi Graff who believed that Bartoli would wear herself down and just lose(not that they don't have to play, just that they had to hang in there long enough for her to break down). Most of them slightly underestimated what she was doing in tournaments. She was an inexperienced player by that point who had proven herself as a former top 10 player.
Her winning was really a surprise i.e out of the blue with already having made the finals twice but her consistency was questionable.
She had unique two handed forehands and backhands. That was easy to replicate and master but once mastered it was going to be lethal. That was what spectators saw in tournaments of Marion Bartoli to a great extent.
at Wimbledon 2013 she had some luck from the draw as 15th seed. she never played a top 10 player en route to her victory. the finalist she played: Venus Williams had already beaten Agnieszka Radwańska en route to the final.
Venus Williams was playing her best but was probably worn out a lot by her battles with Agnieszka Radwańska and others. Venus Williams was in the form of her life but Bartoli had the luck of the draw.
Regardless of whether your fat or not, if you make your shots even Steffi Graff may not be able to return it at Wimbledon. so if you are playing near perfection and having consistency with your shots then you are playing on a level field.
then speaking of fat, technically Marion Bartoli may be classified as fat, yet she was the most successful female tennis player.
Bartoli wasn’t really playing a specific style and really had weakness in tournaments and most of her shots had some vigor in it that Steffi Graf generally doesn't necessarily have. Here return games were spot on and had more errors and more importantly she can get Steffi Graff to errors first.
all in all, this was a victory that was easily replicable or Bartoli after this mediocre run. She had belief and luck along with inexperience that allowed her to win her only Grand Slam. Marion Bartoli was dubbed as unfit and fat. She still made it to Grand Slam finals. Even in her Wembdon win 2013 she wasn’t fit. Marion Bartoli is an inspiration.
It was really a fluke because Bartoli won by dropping sets and beat a few top 20 players along the way.
Winning by dropping a set means you played really close to perfection along with dropping the level enough that allowed anyone to comeback and take a set from you.
being fat may seem a hindrance, but is a limitation if you want it to be one.
Honestly calling her fat in tournaments is really justifiable because she wasn’t thin but fat is really appropriate.
And yes, tall and lanky players like Steffi Graf don’t always win , especially in the topsy turvy women’s tour. slightly fatter players can generate more power than extremely thin and tall players like Steffi Graff.
Who is Marion Bartoli?
Stop smoking crack…
Even if the game was slower 20 or 30 years ago, particularly the speed of the first ball, Steffi's forehand is still one of the best shots of that era. It could stand comparison with that of today's top ten WTA players. It has to be said that today's players are all athletes.
Imagine Steffi‘s forehand with one of today‘s rackets.
The players 20 or 30 years ago were also athletes. And they could play tennis.
@@carrerau7138 Completely agree plus I think her knifed slice backhand would be the shot that today's players couldn't deal with. Barty played a similar tactical style to Graf not so long ago and she got on just fine.
@@mohawk393939 Modern players on Steffi Graf:
“Certainly, I knew how to clobber the ball and I was top 10 at that point, but I realized immediately that I was a so much worse tennis player than Steffi. … Steffi had shown me my limits in a devastating way and that was a good thing. I began to understand.“
(Andrea Petkovic, on her practice session with 41-year-old Steffi Graf in 2011 in Las Vegas, Tennismagazin, June 2019)
However Date-Krumm is convinced that if ‘Fraulein Forehand’ made a comeback today, she would still be world number one. “Yes I think so,” she says. “And why ? Well because tennis is not only power and not only age.“
(Kimiko Date, Tennis World Magazine Exclusive, October 18, 2011)
“If she were healthy, she could play on the tour without any problems. She is so fast. Her forehand is amazing, the slice barely bounces. It's hard to play against her. I'm in the top 30 and not bad at all, but when I play against her I don't feel so good about my ranking," Cirstea said of the 44-year-old Graf.
