Monica Seles
Monica Seles is a former professional tennis player from Yugoslavia who became a naturalized American citizen. Born on December 2, 1973, she was one of the most dominant players in women's tennis during the 1990s, winning nine Grand Slam singles titles. Known for her powerful two-handed strokes and aggressive playing style, Seles was ranked world No. 1 for a total of 178 weeks.
