Way i read what you said was that it was the first love, love win in the Ooen era? Open era began in 1968. Out of the four majors Graf annihilated Zvereva in the 1988 final at Roland Garros.
Sheply,I'm not getting into a stupid thread tit for tat.Yes she played poorly today and her opponent was superb but she was clearly very distressed and in a bad place mentally which you would expect.I was merely pointing out that Croft could have been a bit more considerate.
Don't be daft. Losers always get interviewed it's part of the post match. She's still done better than the other 126 that didn't make the final and got a brilliant payday. I loved the final. One of the best for many years. We got to see a very good player at the top of her game with the first double begal since 1911. History making for the open era.
How? What else could she have said to her? She adopted the right tone and gave Anisimova time to compose herself.
