It’s crazy that her time at #1 was 20 years ago. It’s crazy that the Williams sisters used to play against her and they are still playing tennis now.
Yes Ahol. Hingis could not last as much as the Williams sisters. But Martina Hingis did the smart thing by focusing on doubles later in her career.
Cool quiz but sorry I knew nothing.
I am glad you found it cool Carol. Many thanks for your comment.
A very interesting quiz, but a bit too heavy for me … I only have 4 legal answers
It is ok Vidocka. She has quit singles long back and so we may not be following her that much.
Not an easy quiz considering she has not won any grand slam singles title in this century. Can you believe that she is nearly as young as Serena? She probably peaked too early and that explains why she never won a grand slam singles title after turning twenty. Nevertheless a great player.
A very interesting quiz to refresh your memory … it’s already so far I’ve almost forgotten … I only have 2 regular
Hi Lado. Replied to this one earlier but has not gone as a reply to your comment for some reason. It is showing as a fresh comment.
Nothing bad … the problem remains the same … that I forgot all about Martina Hingis
