Monica was a joy as a teenager, bubbly, happy, excited by how far her talents could take her. Today, she is a gracious, poised lady who does a lot of charitable work, among other things. She has a sweet nature, imo, and would undoubtedly have surpassed Graf's GS record, given her youth, if it hadn't been for that crazed Graf fan. Incidentally, he got off with a suspended sentence, which may possibly have been a factor in Monica's lengthy recovery, the sense of injustice she may have felt.

Monica Seles had won EIGHT Grand Slam singles titles shortly after turning 19. Seles had won SEVEN Grand Slam titles at age 18. Martina Hingis had won 5 Grand Slam titles at age 18. Steffi Graf had won 3 at age 18. Boris Becker and Bjorn Borg had both won 2 GS titles at age 18.

When Monica Seles won the 1992 U.S. Open... she had won SEVEN Grand Slam singles titles at age 18. She had her 19th birthday on December 2nd 1992 - and then won the 1993 Australian Open to put her at EIGHT GS titles as a teen. Monica had won 3 Australian Opens in a row. She had won 3 French Opens in a row. She had won two U.S Opens in a row. Monica had won SEVEN of the last EIGHT Grand Slam events that she had entered. She still had three more Grand Slam events to play as a teen. Then a German man tried to kill Seles during a tennis match in Germany. This person, that some say was hired to remove Seles from the game, didn't even serve any jail time. Some people still believe that Steffi's dad was behind this villainous act. Seles would almost certainly have won 10 Grand Slam titles as a teen (and possibly 11) if not for the pure evil that exists in this world. She might have had twenty by the time she was 23.

Monica was a kid here. She played her 1st full year on tour in 1989 at just 15. She was still very inexperienced in the early 90s. The fact that she won so much was very impressive. Unfortunately we never got to see her peak because of the stabbing. She was still improving, as evident by her improved serve in 1993 Australia open finals. She was likely going to get to her peak in early 1994, but unfortunately we would truly never know what would have happened. In my opinion she's one of the all time greats along with Serena, Steffi, Martina and Chris. Her influence on modern tennis is undeniable.

No, Seles was already in decline. She had only a 92.1 winning percentage in the 12 months before the stabbing (May 1992 to April 1993). Lower than the 93.8 % in the previous 12 months (May 1991 to April 1992). She had visibly gained weight (which would continue until the mid-90s). Anyway, her level in 1992 was also significantly lower than Navratilova's in 1983/84 or Steffi's in 1988/89 (or in 1995/96).
