How come she hasn't been part of the Legends in Top Spin?

Anyway, trying to recreate her.

Rundown
Exceptional forehand, crap backhand, good serve, crap volley, good power, very good stamina, good speed, good reflexes.

Closest setup I can come up with is 0/15/5, 4/0 F/B, Zajic

Zajic needs 15 points in OBL but he boosts all the stats that I want to improve plus his skills Fatality and Passing Shot Sniper seem to fit her. Thoughts?

actually Graf'f backhand was excellent it was a very underrated shot especially the slice. its just that compared to the forehand it was less devastating. she was the quickest female player ever though. her forehand and speed should be the highest

Indeed, her backhand slice was superb. Her topspin backhand was like the arabian phoenix...... I hear it exists, but I never saw it xD
(Nah she used it for passing shots, but it wasn't good).

She needs a whole separate stat column "badassery" in whiich she'd get about 85. Hingis would get 100.

Agree! My favourite female player of all time! Her backhand slice was amazing! It was the first player i created in top spin 4! But i used Rabari as her coach!

Slice Invasion, good point. She did some passing shots per game with a top spin backhand but her inside out forehand killed everything. I would still give her a bit more power though.

I think the female Serve 1 motion is modeled after her.

Steffi was awesome. Just a shame she married that nugget Andre instead of me. I loved that sexy german bitch when I was younger.

Bahaha, her nose was a bit too big for my taste but otherwise she was fine. Great personality too. For bedtime I would pick Gabi over her though.

That nose could be tickling your hairs when she is on her knees if you get what I am saying. :) :lol:
