While there have been many great tennis players over the course of the last few decades, such as Agassi, Sampras, McEnroe, and others, I believe that women have been just as great.
Women are faster, stronger, and harder working in the world of professional tennis and we've been lucky enough to see some absolutely great players. Here are the 7 best since'80, in my opinion.
Venus Williams has been one of the best players in modern tennis, and it's crazy to think about the fact that she finds herself at #7 here. With 10 grand slam wins, her career has been wildly successful. Perhaps the most impressive stat is her four Wimbledon titles.
6. Justine Henin. At her peak, she was beating both of the Williams sisters. She retired early though. Lucky for us, she just announced a comeback. At just 27 years old, there's plenty of gas left in the tank here.
5. Monica Seles. Hitting with two hands on both sides, she literally pounded the ball with every shot, and her grunts indicated this. For a while, she was untouchable, until her unfortunate stabbing. She was never the same after that. Many believe that she could have been the best woman to ever play had this not happened. Her 9 slams were all won at an extremely young age. 4. Chris Evert. She ruled the'70s and part of the'80s, and had a long, successful career.' grand slams says it all.
It's really hard to put Chris Evert here at four, but that's how competitive this field is. With' career slams, she is simply one of the best to ever play.
After Seles is the other Williams sister, as Serena now has more grand slams, not to mention the fact that she's younger than Venus. The last few years have been dominated by Serena ever since Henin retired, and she still has a handful of good years ahead of her.
2. Martina Navratilova. What an outstanding career she had, and she just never seemed to go away.' grand slams and a shining career.
Lastly, we have Steffi Graf, who I like to call the queen of modern tennis. She has more grand slams than anyone else with 22, and she was simply incredible.
