I really, really liked this. These were the golden years of women's tennis.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Such a brilliant, informative, fun video.
Happy Birthday Kate Gompert
Great moment! Loved it! Always great to hear these back stories from top plauyers of the 80’s!Thankyou for this !
Awesome! Glad you liked it.
@@webtennis I want more 🌞really interesting topics and interviews. Tennis of this era was not strictly Evert /Navratilova. There was talented girls outside in the tour! Thank you again
I love that they forget so many of the matches years later. Makes me feel I’m in good company.
I saw the Anne White/Evert win over Kohde-Kilsch/Sukova at Hilton Head, 1986, on a side court.
Remember Kathy Hovarth’s stunning win over Navratilova at FO 1983. Martina’s only loss that year?
That’s the match Renee Richard’s told Martina to stay back . Horvath then. Went to net and weakest part of Martina was hitting backhand sliced cross court passes and Horvath won . Attica gf was her main coach and got Renee fired for giving that advice . It was Martina who got tentative putting up with pressure of constantly winning . Horvath lost to Mima badly in next round . Horvath didn’t prepare for next round and Chrissie rolled over mima in the final . Graf was very young and it was ok building her game at 14 and learned from losses. To some of these players and in 87 won all tourneys except W and Open losing to Martina . Graf wassstill end year number one because only two tourneys Martina won was W and Open . I feel any player that wins W open in same year should be number one regardless of results in other tournaments .
Kaa a te is a lovely woman in her final in r kart open saw one of Chris balls called out told umpire itcc bf was good and replayed point because of her sportsmanship .
Hi - Great interview here - great to hear the back stories about their special wins from Kate, Kathy and Ann here. I recently watched a very nice math from the 1981 South African Open Kathy Horvath vs Kathy Rinaldi - super match - both women handle adversity in the match in an extremely elegant way - especially at the ages of 16 and 14 , Respectively - a lot better than most wta players today aged 25- 27 - Super Quality Tennis as well in the match !! I would be curious to hear if Kathy Horvath recalls this 1981 South African Open match and if she ever talks about it with Kathy Rinaldi in recent years ?
Hi Fulvio. I'll ask Kathy H. Thanks for your comments.
They all seem to have great respect for Evert.
As they should ;-)
Not really in the case of Horvath to say the least. "How did I lose ? She didn't do anything special". How is that respect ? She also implies that Evert influenced line judges with her story about the Rome match which she says she should have won.
@@leolight5369 Pretty sure she meant that Evert didn't have to do anything special to win on that day because Horvath was donating points. That's a reality some times. Our perception of what we have to do vs. a top player is usually greater than what's required to at least make it competitive.
Years ago played a tall guy in a tournament-big serve, big forehand. I did my best to anticipate his serve, vary height and depth to his backhand, went to his forehand to open the court, etc. Won 63-62-and he walked to the net and said you didn't really do anything out there. Just looked at him and said, "Whatever, just beat you 3 and 2."
They all played good and no one could ever take away the big wins they had.I wonder if they all still hit like 3 times a week for the cardio workout.
Gompert's "win" was a 3 set victory ONLY when Evert was coming back on the tour after months off due to injury. Evert won the other 4 times they played easily in straight sets...Horvath was 0-7 against Evert and only their very first match did it go to 3 sets, evert won handily in straight sets the other 6 matches. For Horvath to state that "Evert didn't really do anything" speaks volumes about WHY she always lost to Evert. She sounds like those who DON'T know the game who thought all Evert did was get the ball back, which is ludicrous..
OK but in the end ... a win's a win.
Have a copy of their Wimbledon match-Evert hitting the ball as hard as anyone at that time with that Evert precision.
Hi Brent, what would you say is the key to holding the lead when up a set and a break?
Belief in a process. Consistency of a between points routine.
Cool video though Anne never came close to winning a set against any of them though she had some great big name wins.
This is a great conference. However, who of them beat Graf ("Steffi" refers to Graf?). Anyway, thanks very much, I hope there's more to come!
Anne was referring to a doubles win over Graf.
Just play the ball is best advice- the ball doesn’t care about your feelings.
Wow this is truly incredible hearing all these stories we hope we have stories in the future like these 😍🎾 we post tennis videos and would appreciate your support on our videos and channel 🎾🙏👍
None of them beat Graf in singles...
Hard to listen to when you talk for nearly 3 minutes straight at the start and interrupt.
Apologies. I'll do better next time Doug.
@@webtennis totally understandable without the benefit of editing and just getting the entire Zoom situated. Good job.
