Those crazy angles and two hands all over the place. Monica reinvented the game in a way that no other had done before or since. That SF with Capriati changed women's tennis forever. It always makes me happy to watch the old Seles matches, but a little sad as well because of the lost potential.
Monica was my all time favourite to watch in the women's game. Nobody I have seen since Monica plays with the same fierce intensity and heart than Monica Seles. She had won 7 or8 majors by the age of 19. If she would not have been stabbed, she likely could hold the record for most titles won, but that damaged her more psychologically than physically.
Steffi could have won about 35 slams if it weren't A) for the 1990-92 Graf Blackmail Scandal B) for her 1997 reconstructive knee surgery. Sadly woulda-shoulda-coulda doesn't count in sports or life in general. Even for losers.
monica is the pioneer of the power game we see today in the womens game. sure, chrissie and a few others played baseline games with two handers but they were mostly counterpunchers relying more on consistency. and steffi had a huge forehand but her backhand was mostly just slicing over and over. but monica was the first baseliner who went aggressively after every ball off both sides on every single point. she would never give you a break. and she was SO mentally tough at her peak, the bigger the point, the bigger the shot she went for, she played with no fear. so tragic what that man took away from her and that the tennis world never got to see how truly great she could’ve been.
Monica, almost surely the greatest of all time. The most grit, the sheer will to win, the relentless artillery with heavy double-handed shots, the absence of fear. Fights for every point. Doesn't choke. I would say the biggest talent female tennis ever saw.
Seles is 15-49 win/loss against Graf, Hingis, Davenport, Williams sisters. Never won Wimbledon, was destroyed in her only final there. Was mentally not the strongest. Maybe among the top 10 of the open era, nothing more.
@@carrerau7138she did win 8 majors as a teen before being stabbed. After that she fell apart. At least she did come back. Most of today’s players can barely handle interviews much less being stabbed. Serena only won 1 major in her teens I believe.
Thank you United States Tennis Association for this ♥️ The legendary Monica Seles’ incredible run showcases her powerful shots including her “insane” double handed backhand & forehand winners and her serves. My heart is just overflowing with gladness as the former World No. 1 and 9-time Grand Slam Singles Champion is my true tennis hero ever! I just love it when she is about to go for a powerful hit and she grunts because I know for sure that it’s gonna be a massive winner. #MonicaSelesIsMyTennisHero ♥️💪🎾💯
Her fan appeal was always limited because her game was so unaesthetic. It got better after the stabbing because people had pity for her. And because she became a US citizen.
@@juand.6919 It is a fact that she was not very popular pre-stabbing. And that the stabbing and her new US citizenship improved her popularity is another fact. Even most of her fans would agree with that.
The greatest loss for tennis fans that she lost her mojo post stabbing and father's cancer, she was destined to win 20+ slams at the rate she was going, she would definitely have reached the top3 list with court , Serena ,Graf
I'm always amazed when I see Monica playing...her determination, her power and her instinct killer is just of another world. Every point seems like is the last one!! Thank you Monica..you changed the way of playing tennis!The only one!
While Monica's determination, power, and killer instinct were indeed all phenomenal, other aspects of her game that I thought she didn't get enough credit for were her balance, court positioning, and anticipation. Many tennis fans often go on about how Martina Hingis had incredible anticipation. And deservedly so. But I think Seles' anticipation was right up there with Hingis'. Another thing about Seles that I greatly admired was how well she read the ball. She almost always reacted to it as soon as it was off of her opponent's racket.
@@criotermic That strength of hers was very key because she wasn't the greatest mover. But with her superb anticipation, court positioning, and ability to read the ball extremely well (combined with her super-long arms), it often seemed like she would get to most shots anyways.
That German guy killed a young girl's dream. Even they let him free & it made her trauma & never wanna play in Germany anymore. That's really injustice laws. The word scandal in tennis world. They are so mean
i dont understand how someone with a knife can reach over and stab someone. the people in the stands obviously saw this and either let it happen or reacted like turtles.
We hadn't seen and still to this date have not seen a player with more will to win. That will produced some mind-boggling angles and placement, with a ton of pace, at moments when most of us would hold back. A legend.
@carrerau7138 ok. Let's see how Steffi resumes her career if she was stabbed at the beginning of her prime. She would be a different player and a shell of her self when she returned if she ever did. Seles before she left was untouchable, on the court and in her head.
@@ferdyspears Steffi would have played again 6 weeks after such a minor stabbing. Heck, she played AND won 6 of 6 slams while under criminal investigation for tax evasion!!!! Seles never was "untouchable". She lost 11 matches in her two best years ever, 1991/92. And was publicly belted in a slam final. The great Steffi lost only 5 matches in her great 1988/89 years. THAT was untouchable!
I think it was at the 2002 US Open against Venus when Seles produced an amazing one-handed forehand passing shot on the run from way behind the baseline. That was an incredible shot!
steffi was my favorite , but what happened to monica was the worst moment in sports history. she was cheated and robbed of so much it is in incomprehensible
I believe true Steffi fans would have loved to see more fierce battles between them. There were other players who caused Steffi trouble once in a while, but no one did it like Monica. That was the rivalry.
Great vídeo. There were amazing points in her 97 4R victory against Pierce. Also in her 98 QF match vs Hingins. I dare to say better than some included here.
Only player. I know till date Mens/womens tennis Who hits the ball. On borders of the side line & base line Watched 90S tennis & other sports very closely Finest era of sports.
Yes 3. Along 1991-92 Seles went to all GS final including Wimbledon 92. As a player she grew up very fast. Normally player grew up stronger after 3-4 years. Since 1989 Seles only need 2 years to improved her games. Unfortunately they cut her way by criminal way. A dirty politic. Shame on them
Personally, I think number 10 is number 1. I'm glad you included some post stabbing points, Monica really had Jennifer's number back then. The match point between Sanchez-Vicario and Seles in the US Open final is also great. Monica really had some amazing angles. Thank you for this!
Seles was an absolutely phenomenal player. Still to this day no one in the Open Era has won as much and as fast as she did, from the moment she turned professional until her 20th birthday. Even after all of this time since Monica retired, the only person that has been able to pass Seles' singles Grand Slam count of 9 is Serena Williams. It's hard not to imagine what her record would have looked like in the end if the stabbing hadn't occurred in 1993. One thing is for certain, we were all robbed of a rivalry with Graf that could have been similar to Evert and Navratilova.
What many people forget is that nothing is certain in sports. After WW2 there were 7 other cases when a player won 7-9 slams in a 3-year period (Seles won 8). Those players won only 2.4 slams on average in the following 3 years. And in Monica's case that doesn't even factor in that the GOAT, Steffi Graf, regained her 1988/89 Golden Slam form again in the mid-90s.
People who like beautiful tennis never warmed to her because of her unaesthetic game. And after the stabbing she displayed some problems with the truth (lies about Steffi were really nasty!). Still I like her more than Hingis, Serena or Osaka (which isn't saying much, though).
Graf came in and beat Naverlatova, who was almost un-beatable at that time. Seles came in and destroyed Graf. Greatest player in woman's tennis of all time. She would routinely beat the Williams sisters. To much power, and her shot placement was unbelievable. She ran every body from one side of the court to the other. Would have won more grand slams than any body.
@Max E that's a strange equivocation comparing a person being stabbed in the back during a tennis match by a fan of her main competitor with the distraction of another tennis player's dad being busted for stepping out and having an affair. But hey, you do you.
@Max E I don't know what personal experience you are projecting onto the Grafs but my preference if choosing between my parents having affairs or me being stabbed in the back, I prefer not to be stabbed. Please Max, I don't want to be stabbed.
@Max E How can you even compare these two events like that? Seles almost died at the hands of a man that got away scott free. She faced serious injuries and years of mental problems including PTSD, depression, and eating disorders. She lost her number 1 spot and her ranking plummetted because the rest of the players selfishly refused to freeze her ranking in respect to the new number 1. Steffi was not even physically injuried by her crisis in any way. Steffi's incident was completely contained to her personal life, whereas Seles's injuries had a serious impact on her court performance. Steffi remained at the top of the game was still able to win slams. Seles could not win slams for years and dropped off the rankings completely. That fact that Steffi could play through the ordeal shows that it was way less serious than Seles's case, in which she was too physically and emotionally broken the play. Attempted murder is worse than finding out your parents had an affair dumbass. If you genuinely think that these two events are equally tragic, then you are the victim of the US education system.
I don't see how can one still be a Graff's fan giving that her overall results was made possible through most horrendous cheating basically by her country, unless one's rational is quite broken.
@@lukStSerb Well... it was not Graf who stabbed her neither her telling Günter Parche to stab her... It was the most horrific thing that has ever happened in a tennis match but why should I not be a Graf fan anymore after this? It has some bad aftertaste for sure, but not being allowed to support Graf anymore... i mean should she have stopped too after this? Should everyone just retire after this?
@@muejen ..how do you know that it wasn't her / her team / her country telling her compatriot _"Günter Parche to stab her"?_ That so conveniently for Graff and Germany the better player - potentially the G.O.A.T. female tennis athlete was removed, voted out from the No. 1 place and the German stabber let to walk free right away.. nobody forbids you supporting whomever your rational dictates you to support, but whom you support tells much about in what health state your rational is.
@@lukStSerb if you think that, you're on the same level like people who think that the vaccine will kill them, flat earthers or any other conspiracy theorists. And I dont like to argue with this kind of people since they will always stick to their brain-damaged opinion. Have a nice day.
Seles never would have won Wimbledon. And I don't see her beating Steffi, Hingis, Serena, Venus at the USO. She was very good on slower surfaces, though.
Back when women’s tennis had more variety in terms of style of play. Graf had that slice only backhand to set up her cannon forehand. Seles hitting two handed off both sides. Venus’ flowing stokes.
It’s always so annoying when some bozo shouts “Out!” on a line call like Point #2. All it can do is distract the players, it’s not going to change the outcome- just be quiet until the point is over. Like if you agree.
Seles war in 1991/92 die schlechteste #1 seit Evert 1982. In ihrer besten Saison (1992) gewann sie nur 93.3 % ihrer Spiele. Navratilova und Steffi waren in 1983-1990 teilweise deutlich besser. Mehr noch - Steffi gewann in dem gesamten Jahrzehnt 1987-96 93.8 % ihrer Spiele. Man kann also sagen, dass eine durchschnittliche Steffi immer noch besser war als "peak Monica". Viele vergessen, dass Seles Anfang der 90er Jahre nur deswegen so viel gewann, weil Steffi aufgrund eines Skandals in ein tiefes Loch fiel (u.a. 1-7 Sieg/Niederlage-Serie gegen Sabatini; massenhaft Slam- und YEC-Finals verpasst). 1988/89 und auch 1995/96 Steffi waren klar besser als Seles je war. Steffi sagt auch immer, dass Navratilova und Sabatini ihre härtesten Gegnerinnen waren. Selbst als Seles #1 war gewann Steffi 5 von 7 Spielen gegen die Serbin.
Monica was the geometry master going double-fisted from both sides. The shame of it all is that the maniac with the knife ultimately accomplished what he had set out to do. Love Monica and as a fan feel robbed of what may have been. Oh well. There's always '91 US Open final Monica playing bra-less against Martina...hmmm
I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT IF IT WASN'T FOR THE HORRIFIC STABBING IN GERMANY BY A GRAF FAN, MRS. SELES WOULD HAVE WON 25-30 GRAND SLAMS. SHE HAD 8 AT 17 YEARS OLD. EVERT, NAVRATILOVA, GRAF, BOTH WILLIAMS ETC. NEVER ACCOMPLISHED THAT. MRS. SELES WAS WINNING 3 GRAND SLAMS PER YEAR. AMAZING.
She started to early in Life with 9 her whole Life was Tennis 😢😢others start later,it must been very hard for a 12 Year’s old to live in a strange Country allone😲🤷♀️🤷♀️😢😢

Back when women’s tennis had more variety in terms of style of play. Graf had that slice only backhand to set up her cannon forehand. Seles hitting two handed off both sides. Venus’ flowing stokes.
It’s always so annoying when some bozo shouts “Out!” on a line call like Point #2. All it can do is distract the players, it’s not going to change the outcome- just be quiet until the point is over. Like if you agree.
One of the greatest player of all time whose 9 grand slum within 7 years is more than 24 grand slum in whole life.
Steffi is the greatest.
4 slams within 1 year.
Monika Seleš Yugoslavia ❤
Sie war die beste und bleibt so, Graff wurde für sie den Weg freigeräumt!
Seles war in 1991/92 die schlechteste #1 seit Evert 1982.
In ihrer besten Saison (1992) gewann sie nur 93.3 % ihrer Spiele.
Navratilova und Steffi waren in 1983-1990 teilweise deutlich besser.
Mehr noch - Steffi gewann in dem gesamten Jahrzehnt 1987-96 93.8 % ihrer Spiele. Man kann also sagen, dass eine durchschnittliche Steffi immer noch besser war als "peak Monica".
Viele vergessen, dass Seles Anfang der 90er Jahre nur deswegen so viel gewann, weil Steffi aufgrund eines Skandals in ein tiefes Loch fiel (u.a. 1-7 Sieg/Niederlage-Serie gegen Sabatini; massenhaft Slam- und YEC-Finals verpasst). 1988/89 und auch 1995/96 Steffi waren klar besser als Seles je war.
Steffi sagt auch immer, dass Navratilova und Sabatini ihre härtesten Gegnerinnen waren.
Selbst als Seles #1 war gewann Steffi 5 von 7 Spielen gegen die Serbin.
@@carrerau7138 Aaamine 😁 nochmal sie wurde mit Absicht aus dem weg genommen. Erinnert mich an burce lee und der noris 🤣 manu manu manu ...
@@abdellbayern Die Absicht eines kranken Spinners ist wie relevant?
Was war denn mit dem guten Burce und dieser Noris?
Still sad for what happens to her.
This was nice watching - with the sound off...
Ela tinha dois back hands
Poche chiacchiere, la tennista più forte di sempre (e qui mancano anche le giocate migliori)...
Those were all very routine points for Monica.
She transformed women’s tennis
Monica was the geometry master going double-fisted from both sides. The shame of it all is that the maniac with the knife ultimately accomplished what he had set out to do. Love Monica and as a fan feel robbed of what may have been. Oh well. There's always '91 US Open final Monica playing bra-less against Martina...hmmm
So sayang... she could have won more grandslams........
True. They killed a young girl's dream. It's real criminal
The music though 😣
I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT IF IT WASN'T FOR THE HORRIFIC STABBING IN GERMANY BY A GRAF FAN, MRS. SELES WOULD HAVE WON 25-30 GRAND SLAMS. SHE HAD 8 AT 17 YEARS OLD. EVERT, NAVRATILOVA, GRAF, BOTH WILLIAMS ETC. NEVER ACCOMPLISHED THAT. MRS. SELES WAS WINNING 3 GRAND SLAMS PER YEAR. AMAZING.
You silly liar.
Seles had only 4 slams at age 17.
Which 16 slams would your heartthrob have according to your wet dreams, girl?
Marcelo Rios, Nalbandian, Coria, Gaudio nexts please!

I think Iga has taken a lot from her backhand technique! It’s the first player to initiate a similar forehand and backhand technique!
Tennis really is ladies sports
Guys drop balls
M seles wearing Korean flag
So.much speed power plus corner shot
Virus vs seles love to see
10 ➡1 , 9➡2 .......
Seles was a killer before the attack. She could blow eveyone of the court.
Not Steffi.
Even when Seles was #1 pre-stabbing she usually lost to Steffi.
She started to early in Life with 9 her whole Life was Tennis 😢😢others start later,it must been very hard for a 12 Year’s old to live in a strange Country allone😲🤷♀️🤷♀️😢😢
