2771426, I could make the same argument with Henin. Posted by allStah, Mon Sep-05-22 09:10 PM
Henin retired in her prime due to injury..beat Serena in 3 straight GS finals, and they had an 8-6 rivalry, and Henin dominated her on Clay. Henin was on her ass.
That’s a weak argument.
Steffi retired at the age of 30 to go make a family with Agassi. Serena played 10 more years than Steffi and retired at the age of 40 and still had less wins and titles than Steffi.
Steffi did things no other woman or man has done.
- 377 weeks as the number 1 player ( man or woman) - only player to achieve a golden slam ( man or woman) - only player to achieve a calendar slam since 1970 - won all grand slams at least 4 times ( no other player has done that man or woman)
Serena has one more GS than Steffi….but she played an extra 10 years. Steffi owns everything else.
