Steffi Graf

Graf beat Gabriela Sabatini for the gold in 1988

Long considered one of the greatest players of all time in the women’s game, German legend Steffi Graf has 22 Grand Slam titles to her name – an all-time high record that was only recently equalled by Serena Williams, who won the title at Wimbledon 2016.

Graf is the only women’s player to have completed the Golden Slam and the only player, male or female, to have a golden calendar slam, winning the Olympic title and all four of the year’s Grand Slams in the same year, 1988.

She also made the finals at the succeeding Olympics in 1992 in Barcelona, Spain, losing to Jennifer Capriati.
