PertSnergleman's Review:
--------------------------------------------
If an umpire decided to give Seles a public warning, any subsequent misdemeanours would be punishable by penalty points until the official felt the distractions were deliberate. The referee would then be summoned, and the player could be disqualified under the rule regarding 'hindrance'.
'Her argument,' Navratilova said, 'is she is not doing it on purpose. But she can stop it, you know. She can stop it on purpose.'
Few would deny that the sound of Seles is one of the least aesthetic features of the sport. Though far removed from John McEnroe's obscenities, Seles's constant stream of exclamations, a cross between 'Je t'aime' and Tarzan, is offensive to the ears of spectators and opponents alike.
She accepts this, and has promised to do something about it, though it may take a little time to adjust: she has been grunting since her first appearance on the international scene as a 10-year- old in a Sport Goofy tournament in Orlando.
Is it fair to put so much additional pressure on her, here and now, as she approaches her first final in the world's most prestigious championships, the one which, because of its unique grass courts, may be the most difficult of the four majors for her to win? Smoking is offensive to many people, but would it be right to deny an expectant father a cigarette?
'There were two or three times (against Navratilova) when I said, 'Monica, don't grunt, don't grunt',' Seles said. 'In some parts of the match I was successful, and in some parts I was not. Twice the umpire said, 'Miss Seles, would you keep it down?' I tried, but I guess when it came really close I probably was grunting again, without realising I was doing it.'
Being the determined character she is - as demonstrated when defeating Graf, 10-8, in the deciding set of the French Open final last month - Seles is unlikely to allow the issue to cloud her thoughts, though even the slightest lapse of concentration can be costly in a tight match.
The match against the 35-year- old Navratilova was closer and more imaginative than many people considered it would be, and Wimbledon's most prolific champion was the first to acknowledge that Seles had advanced to the final on merit: 'Grunting or not, she is a great player and certainly deserved to win today. I think she would have beaten me even without the grunt.'
Granmartina, as my Australian friend Alan Trengrove described her, enriched her 20th visit to the All England Club with a performance only marginally short of producing an upset. She failed chiefly as a consequence of approaches as cramped as the French roads to the channel ports.
Playing Seles, who is half her age, on a grass court for the first time, Navratilova was immediately put under pressure by an opponent who gleefully passed her - left, right and down the lines - at every opportunity, and was broken in the opening game.
The match climaxed with five consecutive breaks, the first noisily achieved by Seles to lead 4-2. Navratilova waited until she had broken back in the next game before again asking the umpire if she would do something about the ear-bashing. Seles, frowning like a suppressed soprano, was unable to comply for long, and the handshake was cool when the players met at the net.
The crowd rose to applaud Navratilova as she left the Centre Court, wondering, perhaps, if she would be back. She waved, blew a kiss, and promised to return.
Graf, inevitably, was asked if she would complain if Seles grunts too loudly tomorrow. 'I don't know,' she said. But didn't the grunting get loud in Paris? 'It did at the end, it really did. But we'll see . . .'

I remember they’d show these tournament reviews on BBC during a rain delay at Wimbledon, do you have them for any other years? I think there was also one shown for 1987 and 2001
Merci !
What a time!
Almost 15 minutes for mcenroe cash ( ans i love thèm both, particulary cash), and only two aces to résume the great victory of Goran against Sampras ???? What a shame !! That said, my favorite Wimbledon of all time, very exciting !
The big 4 at that time : Monica - Steffi - Gaby - Martina ✌😂😘 Best era 🤔
