In 1985, 15-year-old Gabriela Sabatini became the youngest-ever player to reach the semifinals of the French Open and finished the year in the top 10, where she stayed for nearly a decade. Her movie-star looks turned her into one of South America’s biggest stars — the media referred to her as the Pearl of the Pampas and the Divine Argentine — and she displayed another kind of beauty on the court, where her topspin tricks and sweeping backhand remain legendary. She defeated Steffi Graf in the final of the 1990 U.S. Open to win her only Grand Slam singles title. Well aware that she played second string to contemporaries like Graf and Monica Seles, she has denied that their greatness influenced her decision to retire in 1996. “I didn’t have the desire to win,” she told Charlie Rose at the time. “I don’t think they had anything to do with this. It had more to do with me.” Now 41, she has her own line of fragrances, which include Devotion and Latin Dance.
