A wily and resourceful competitor, relentlessly determined and masterful in covering the court, Arantxa Sánchez-Vicario captured 14 Grand Slam Championships, taking four in singles, six in women’s doubles, and four more in mixed doubles. A clay court strategist of the highest order, she ruled at Roland Garros three times. In perhaps her most gratifying victory, an ebullient Sánchez-Vicario won the 1994 US Open with a typically gritty triumph over Steffi Graf, becoming the first Spanish female ever to take that championship.
