Serena/Evonne is a good call, though I have a sneaking suspicion we're forgetting somebody obvious.<br />BWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04537647090614666652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16333114.post-55402655655877287272014-07-29T23:17:07.727-04:002014-07-29T23:17:07.727-04:00Is this list supposed to be specific to the US Ope...Is this list supposed to be specific to the US Open? If so, how many titles did Chrissie win at the US Open? 6 at least. On how many different surfaces? Just clay and hard court? Or, did she win on grass as well? What was Chrissie's win/loss record at the US Open compared to the others? Could Henin really be considered the best at ANYTHING in her short career really? Evert's backhand and mental toughness are legendary.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16333114.post-45392225557776829012014-07-29T14:18:30.075-04:002014-07-29T14:18:30.075-04:00Seles for mental toughness hands down.Seles for mental toughness hands down.Donnynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16333114.post-31482460402764929592014-07-29T09:16:59.618-04:002014-07-29T09:16:59.618-04:00I am definitely a Chrissie fan boy, but I do think...I am definitely a Chrissie fan boy, but I do think I would have picked her for best backhand. Her backhand up the line won her many a point. I'd also pick her mental toughness - not just 'in match' but also for years on end - her consistency in tournaments over such a long period of time was crazy!Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16888626582753604157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16333114.post-57496118399938060772014-07-29T07:06:58.047-04:002014-07-29T07:06:58.047-04:00Clearly Seles had mental toughness to overcome wha...Clearly Seles had mental toughness to overcome what she went through. But I'll never quite shake my belief that she lost to Graf at Wimbledon because that was the year the female players made a huge deal about her grunting in particular, and she couldn't grunt in the final.Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05498144703249090413noreply@blogger.com
