Alway Monica Seles!! Pure talent and personality!
She would have won it all the way through to 1995, at least
@@pramudya_jkt that was the year of the comeback..she won a title and reached the final at the U.S. Open...what did you expect?
@@criotermic she won US Open in 1991 and 1992. We know why she didn’t even compete for two years since 1993. If the terrible thing didn’t happen, I believe she would have won US Open in 93, 94,and maybe also even 95 and 96.
@@pramudya_jkt and probably 97and 98
Blah blah blah for 30 years
Both Williams sisters are still playing. Incredible!
It just goes to show how incredibly bad the women's game is.
@@MartinGonzalez-ki8kn Same can be said about the men's game then considering 30+ guys, with one of them almost 40, are still on top of the rankings.
@@MRchriSirhc True to a certain extent. Too many of them are on easy street when it comes to the money.
This is more true in regards to the women players.
@@MartinGonzalez-ki8kn How many misogyny pills have you taken today? It's WORSE on the men's side. With guys pushing 40 yrs old have 56 GS titles Between them & no young guys to STOP them, THAT'S WORSE; a la "My dad can beat up your dad". SMH.
One of them even was able to double her weight.....so technically there are three of them around now
It still gives me chills when I see Serena
Since 1999 she is still consider to have another major
What an achievement 👏👏👏
She'd ruin her reputation in years to come
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
@@MeMe-td1ye no she didnt.
@@russeluc yes she did
@@MeMe-td1ye How so? Just because you don't like her doesn't mean she isn't one of the greatest players to ever play the game of tennis. Unless, you know her personally? Give me a break.
Monika Seles 💪💪
The legendary steffi graf, she also had won in 88 & 89. What a career!!!
Pete, Gaby, Stefan, Steffi, Patrick and Martina my favourite champions from the 90s 👍
Legend has it that Roger Federer, or someone related to him, received the racquet thrown at 5:34 that’s why he loves Pete so much...
Back then the real no 1 Monica Seles could have won more US Open titles, atleast 5 times! Serena the GOAT, hopefully she'll make it again!
How I totally forgot Pete won many times and so happy for Gaby too!
Sabatini was gorgeous.
She was eye-candy 🙂
she still is!
Alexander Kings shes manly
You forget that Hingis made 3 US & 6 AO consecutive finals.
I never forgot
Seles per sempre...
Seles hubiese ganado más US Open ,estaba en su plenitud 93 .Seles y Sabatini 😘😘🤩
Steffi, a melhor de todas!
Agassi! and Graf! 👏👍💖
Monica, you're the best, I love you! Alway Monica Seles!! Pure talent and personality. Моника, ты лучшая, люблю тебя!!!
Lindsay Davenport ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sabatini 👑🇦🇷
Williams sisters are incredible
Arantxa !!!!!! N1
Todd Martin was 29 in 1999 when he lost to Agassi, but he looks like a 50 year old man.
I really was like. Who's that old man 😅😅😅
The ball on match point for Sabatini was clearly out!
Ilya Kuryakin noooo 😆 thats wrong
Gabby solidified her win with her 2 yrs domination against steffi. Except for that 91 wimbledon final. By 93-94 gabby was a non factor while steffi graf hit a couple new peak career high & kept winning
@@fuckurbody More like Graf got a deranged fan to be a hitman and take out the 1 girl that HAD her #. Seles
Ilya Kuryakin BLM has nothing to do with this. Stay on topic sir
It wasn’t. Go watch the match and the replay.
I cry everytime i watch the 1990 mens final ending.
Wikingwarrior Kostecki-Andersen Bc Agassi lost?
Great sportsmanship from Stitch '94 and Seles '95 but ice-cold handshake from Venus to Hingis in '97.
It's no secret that neither of Williams' sisters really liked Hingis, they were always engaged in all sorts of verbal wars as they frequently thrown shades on each other and attacked each other, that smile from both in 1999 USO final was the fake one as you can tell by body language of Serena...
Also i don't think Seles was very happy after her defeat to Graf year later in 1996...unlike '95 defeat she doesn't quite radiate the same level of "positive energy" as she did year prior, when she went to congratulate Graf at the net...
Michael Stich 1994 - great champion!
Stich is a class act
Great times..ahh
Monica forever ❤
Gaby❤
Steffi gano 93, 95 y 96. Gran año 1996 para ella derroto a la conumero uno seles
Why is the 1990 men's final such poor quality film? The women's looks fine.
The women's final is always played before the men's finals
Obviously the court will be more worn out
@@Phurngirathaana The court? I meant the quality of the footage, not the playing surface. The women's footage is what you would expect for 1990, the men's looks like it was filmed in the early 1980's.
And Williams still playing
Serena’s first Major always makes me tear up
she really did not want to hit a forehand on that match point lol
5:09
Nobody:
Nobody at all:
Steffi Graf: I will celebrate with my team and leave the player at the net waiting for me
And people hate Serena for « supposedly » her come ones... smh
olaraay it was a huge deal for the both of them. Monica had just came back from stabbing incident, first slam back for her, only her 2nd tournament. It was the most anticipated match for sure, alot was riding on that steffi-monica match. The warm embrace at the net really melted everyones heart. It was a good look for the sport.
@@fuckurbody monica said in her book that she thought it was odd what steffi did there
olaraay oh really?? What did she say? Does she think steffi did it for the camera?
Wait, was it the warm embrace or her celebrating with her camp before running up to the net?
@@fuckurbody running towards her camp 1st
Dennis shapovalov outfit.
Serena no 1
Steffi Graf was the queen of the 90s. 3 titles. Twice a runner up,
Oyama Dyosiba yes I agree 1000%
Of course queen by stabbing the actual queen
MRbrach monica did get bigger, alot bigger and slower. Did u see her gut in that 95 & 96 finals?
At the expense of Seles being stabbed by a deranged Graf fan. He could see what we all could, that Seles was dominating Graf.
Michele Z seles never dominated steffi graf. Sabatini did. Monica became number 1 in 91.
In 91 steffi beat monica both times they met. 2-0 for steffi.
In 92, it was 1-1. Monica beat steffi 10-8 in the third set in french final, steffi killed monica in wimbledon final 6-2 6-1
In 93, monica beat steffi 3 sets in australian open final.
Monica got stabbed.
So yeah contrary to popular beliefs, monica never dominated steffi. It was pretty even. Monica did get the number 1 ranking because steffi kept losing to sabatini, plus couple losses to novotna & sanchez...
Monica had a chance to prove herself after coming back and she failed.
Petra kvitova had worst attack on her, her playing hand her left hand was destroyed. she got back up and got into the best shape of her life. Monica didnt. Simple.
Props to the 1999 finalists. Both men, obviously well in their 50ies, and it's not even the legends tournament 😂
Didn't want to watch after 92 . Monica Seles you are the greatest ever.. Irrespective of the number of slams... Love always ❤❤ Steffi would never cross 15 slams without you getting stabbed .. Where you would reach we will never know..
@Mark Decena she won 7 out of the last 9 slams.. And 3 back to back wta finals before she was stabbed.. It's clear as daylight who was dominant
@Mark Decena so hows that steffis slump ended immediately after seles stabbing! 2 out of 9 slam wins before stabbing then suddenly 5 in a row without seles.. Hahaha.. Everyone knows the truth.. If u argue for sake of arguing then there's nothing to do
Seles was and is a true legend. Love and respect from India.
Wonderful Steffi. | Esteban.
Agassi was always Sampras' pigeon at the USO.
Sampras could and should have won it in 1999, back injury didn’t let him so he couldn’t play ,he was playing tremendously during the summer 20+ consecutive wins,beating Andre 2 time in a row
No doubt in my mind Sampras wd have won the Open that year, he was on a hot streak. I seem to remember that he came back in time to win the year end championship. The Goat.
And the funniest thing is the person, who has chances to get 6 titles at the USO might not even be in his late teens yet as i don't think Alcaraz has what it takes to be consistent at the USO enough to break through 5 title mark there...neither do i believe Djokovic has 2 more titles in him and Nadal is pretty much done with winning slams anyway, let alone them being outside RG...
I think the 5 title open era mark will still stand for yet for at least couple of decades more!
Americans really dominated this tournament now it’s all Europeans.

@Jeb Clem wow... I actually got to see Monica play... she's a great player...
Steffi Graf the greatest female player in my opinion
@@Munkyjoe1 IT"S A FACT.... if you take away all the win that Venus gave her sister... it's not even close... LOL
S1L3NT G4M3R between Venus and the knife I’d still pick Venus. At least she played those matches...
@@juju1305 "played"
Steffi Graf ruled the US Open in the 90’s two semifinals, two runner-up, and three titles
@Jeb Clem Seles 2 titles, 4 finals, and a lot of delusional fans, including Trump.
Jeb Clem wow so hostile Hahahaha
Get a grip freak Hahahaha
@Jeb Clem she was only absent in 1993 and 1994. She lost to Steffi in 1995 and 1996.
@@sds2954 shut up she got stabbed when she was on top of her game and saying steffi was good here shame on you
@@renjurai8010 are you a child? Can you not engage respectfully? Grow up. Fyi. Seles just won the Candian Open in 1995 beating Amanda Coetzer in the final (whom beat Steffi) prior to her loss in the in the US Open. A few months later Seles also won the 1996 Australian. So yes Steffi deserved those wins. Also for your info, Seles and Steffi never played each at the US Open until 1995 and split their 2 previous hard court matches. Steffi beating Seles in 1991 in Atlanta and Seles beating Steffi at the Australian Open. Seles won her 2 US Open titles beating Navratilova and Arantxa so me compliment Steffi was not wrong.
Was very clearly women's 1990 final Steffi vs Gaby that last ball is out,with or without challenge our eyes was very clear.
Terrible linesement and bad call ever
Serena entered the tennis world and changed everything.. even those horrible outfits the women were wearing lol
Sore loser tho
What is age of 99 male runner up?
He looks 60 years old😱
I miss the days when there was no on court drama with women's tennis back then until serena came along
Men were better looking in the 90s and females are better looking now. Just an observation.
That is true
Monica seles is so overrated, she had a couple decent years before hamburg but thats it. People say oh she was stabbed she was never the same, physically their was no reason she couldnt have recovered and carried on.
Psychologically, was tougher but again i think she milked it. She was never the fittest & i think she used hamburg to excuse the fact that she had eating problems long before hamburg. Instead people excused her and demonised steffi who literally did nothing. Except beat everyone who showed up to play her.
Name a tennis player who won more than 8 Grand Slam titles during the teenage years! If you can name one, then you can take off your clown suit! The audacity to say!
@@starside7oh please 😏 4 of them were australian open, back then half the players didnt bother travelling to australia! She never won wimbledon, steffi humiliated her in the one final she made. She won 2 US and 3 french.
But my point was AFTER hamberg, she never was the same, no physical reason why except burgers and chips. Mentally yeah i give her a year or two to get over it but she didnt. Used it as an excuse.
She always had an issue with food and physical fitness, now she just had an excuse to keep eating and blame, hamberg, steffi, everyone but herself
Deal with it!
@@gailemory3625 You still didn't answer my question! Mental strength is the most important criteria in tennis and this was Monica's biggest weapon and the reason, why she won many major titles in a short time and made the deciding points against Graf! She was never famous for her remarkable fitness, even before the incident. Yes, she didn't win Wimbledon and her amazing game style hasn't peaked yet! She's still learning and improving! It's impressive reaching the Wimbledon final for a player who doesn't like to play on grass! If you watch the Australian Open in 93 her serve has improved a lot and I'm sure she could be a threat in Wimbledon and win a title! Saying Monica is overrated is a huge reach! You are just delusional and a hater! Have a sit and shame on you!
@@gailemory3625 You are so wrong about the Australian open. What you said only happened before the Open Era. Clearly, you don't know the facts, so maybe you just spit out nothing but bull.
@@reinebautistamercado4286 you can make up facts to suit ur narrative if u want. But its a FACT that australian open was a joke tournament that most of the best players skipped. They used that time to enjoy xmas and rest. Then new rules came in, they had to. Play so many tournaments etc. The the australians improved in the 90s and 2000s, it became competitive and worth travelling to
90-s are 1991-2000
