Past her best Review ofMonica Seles (USA)by

Advantages: Power Disadvantages: Past her best
Monica Seles has had an excellent tennis career, she has been competing and often winning at the top level for many years. Monica has strength as well as excellent knowledge of the game that comes with experience. Monica's can often get a lot of power into her shots, and her serves are very fast too. Often this is shown in a rather funny way when she screams or grunts when hitting hard shots, shouting very loudly to show the effort she puts into ... ...find but her experience means she is clever so she doesn't need to have great pace. Seles has had a successful career and it not over yet. She has played some excellent games fairly recently and it would be good to see her win another major tournament before her career ends.

Advantages: Power Disadvantages: Not at best of early 90's
Monica Seles is an extraordinary player who can never be taken lightly in matches. I feel it was so unfair when she had to miss so much tennis because of the dreadful incident which happened to her a while back. However, Monica has come back strongly and although she is not dominating the game as she was in the early 90’s, she is still a force to be reckoned with by many of the top female players. She is currently number 4 in the world and ...
