Monica Seles

Monica Seles (born December 2, 1973) is a former World No. 1 tennis player. During her career, Seles won nine Grand Slam singles titles and became the youngest-ever champion at the French Open in 1990. She was the most dominant player in the women's game during the early-1990s. However in 1993 Seles was stabbed by a crazed fan of rival player Steffi Graf. Following this incident, she did not play on the tour again for over two years. She enjoyed some further success after returning to the competitive game in 1995, but was never again able to consistently reproduce her very best form.
