If you visited the museum in Beaumont and speak with one of the historians, they will tell you she pulled the hottest women in the Golden Triangle.

quote:Are you referring to 2 periods of holding all 4 titles? Because her first grand slam win was in 1999 - so that's almost 18 years apart from yesterday's win. Either way, she's absurdly dominant at a late age. She is the greatest of all time.
Serena has 2 grand slams about 12 years apart

Maybe the greatest tennis player, but not "athlete".
as far as Graf beating her, it's hard to say. Graf had that defensive backhand, which she had very few unforced errors with. As any sport, it's hard to compare past and current players. Not to mention the racquets have changed quite a bit since her career peak...
I've never liked Serena, such a bad attitude. I respect her game though.

What Serena is doing this late in her career is impressive, no one else has done it.
I don't think the women on tour today are as competitive as it was back with Graf, Seles, Hingis, etc.

Flo Jo & Vonn were pretty dominant.
Flo Jo was only suspiciously dominant for 1 year in her career (1988) & she abruptly retired the year after.
I still believe Evelyn Ashford is the greater sprinter & that should be her 100m world record.
Flo Jo never failed a test ,but neither did Marion Jones who admitted to doping for years .
