Graf was renowned for her intensity, quickness, and strong forehand. By the 1990s, she had established herself as one of the top players in the world, winning numerous singles championships at the Australian Open (1988–90 and 1994), U.S. Open (1988–89, 1993, and 1995–96), and French Open (1987–88, 1993, 1995–96, and 1999). In the open era, her seven Wimbledon championships (1988–89, 1991–93, and 1995–96) were second only to Navratilova’s nine. Graf, who had a history of ailments, left the game shortly after losing in the Wimbledon finals in 1999.
Graf remained in the public eye even after retiring. She wed the renowned tennis player Andre Agassi in 2001, and the two of them were active in a number of humanitarian endeavors, such as Children for Tomorrow, a charity that Graf had established in 1998 to support children and families impacted by disasters and war. In 2004, Graf received her induction into the International Tennis Hall of Fame.
