Gabriela Sabatini Eurosport Interview Part 1

Gabriela Sabatini Eurosport feature October 2006 Part 1.
Interview conducted by Glen MacKay

[@MrWillyCC]

No idea how or why KZbin recommended this to me but…THANK YOU!!

[@johnmarin2742]

My mother and aunt worked for her for several years and they loved her. I only met her a few times when I was around 13 or 14 and she was extremely sweet and respectful. Sometimes my mom would come home with piles and piles of clothes given to her by Gabriela Sabatini. This all happened around 15 years ago but my mother still talks about her and her family with nothing but great things to say about them. I am very happy for her success and after getting to know her and seeing how she was my mother, I am sure all that success is well deserved. Beautiful person.

[@anitasseo]

Indeed, very well loved here in Argentina--I even think she should be loved more. In this country, people tend to adore the wrong idols sometimes. She´s always been humble and sweet, very private -something that you have to respect-, and something else: She does a lot of charity, in an anonymous way. Great girl, who deserves all my respect--and should get the respect of everyone, don´t you think? Cheers ;-)

[@kebec1]

Very nice.

[@melissalee2465]

Wow I envy you. I have loved this lady for all my life. She is still my idol and my crush xx

[@albertomorales8441]

Wow !…nice comment

[@republicofhandball8815]

Is it true that she might be lesbian?

[@francisfernandes9175]

Gorgeous, beautiful no matter which court she played, she was ❤ and admired by fans all over the world. Thank you Gaby

[@audreyb233]

I loved Gabriela! So nice to see she has been successful after tennis!..she is more beautiful than ever!! 🙏❣️🥰

[@AnilKumar-cz1cz]

GOD BLESS YOU SABATINI.......YOU WERE MY FAVOURITE TENNIS PLAYER

[@AA-vv5fd]

Charm, beauty and class..

[@fjosephgonzales6870]

Obviously, Gabby was beautiful on the outside, but people should also know how beautiful she was on the inside. Case in point: When fellow tour player Monica Seles was stabbed and it took Seles 2-1/2 years to return to the tour, every single tour player voted that Seles NOT be allowed to retain her #1 pre-stabbing ranking (including Graf and Navratilova) on her return (in other words, have no ranking and have to earn all her computer points back), EXCEPT one player: Gabriela Sabatini. Gabby knew that these were circumstances beyond anyone's control and that it was the fairest, most humane way to treat Seles on her return. This goodhearted nature and empathy, even for her rivals, was why Gabby was/is so loved by many all over the world! God Bless Gabby!!

[@anitasseo]

She does a lot of charity, too -only, she doesn´t tell. Great girl, thanks for the comment

[@anitasseo]

Very true indeed

[@euanelliott8068]

I saw her being interviewed on TV at Wimbledon and she seemed very self conscious, and yet the next time saw her flashing that fantastic Latin smile, looking full of confidence. She's a sweetheart, and I wish her every happiness with whoever makes her happy.

[@archerchance6214]

I guess Im asking the wrong place but does anybody know a trick to get back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost the account password. I appreciate any tips you can give me!

[@tonymiller6847]

Yes beautiful inside and outside. Loved her style and form.

[@nocomment5778]

After all these years, Gaby is still the ONE💓. Most beautiful & popular tennis player ever 😊

[@bobby1968100]

Fast so hübsch wie Stephanie Maria Graf😂😂😂

[@mickeystanic4750]

@@bobby1968100 The biggest champ was Monika Seles from Yugoslavia, Germans had to stub her with a knife in the back to stop her and clear way for Stephanie Graf. Such a disgrace.

[@mickeystanic4750]

@Max E German are "funny". They use to pull kids out from schools, lined them up and gun them down in WW2 in Serbia. In one day they gunned down around 3000 civilians including some 300 school kids (21. October 1941in Kragujevac).

[@robomnemonic3751]

How the hell can't you guys se that it is a man

[@robomnemonic3751]

@Max E So you can't see it is man?? you can even hear it. You are gay ......

[@chakradharvenkateshbabu2458]

Gaby was Gorgeous Tennis player during her time infact in and Off Court 😊

[@kazuakigabychan8147]

I met Gaby in Melbourne in 1992. Not only was she beautiful, but she was a friendly lady as well. Since then, I started rooting for Gaby. I saw her first round in 1995 in Melbourne, and was shocked she was eliminated then. I got a beautiful kitten in Aug 1996 and named her Gaby. My Gaby was beautiful, but not as friendly as original Gaby. I still remember both fondly. If she had had killer's instinct like Graf, Gaby would have a few more Grand Slam titles, at least 1991 Wimbledon, but I like her the way she is.

[@christyantony9290]

10 years after she retired from tennis another 10 years after KZbin given me an opportunity to watch this video..

[@cjq4755]

She is easily one of the most beautiful women in sports. Her genuine demeanor is just as stunning as her beauty.

[@lexl2357]

She looks way more attractive now than she did back then, and she was great back then too. I reckon she will look amazing at 60 as well

[@sobojetty]

Gaby!! Still beautiful and classy after all these years!! 🌹🌹🌹

[@ZATennisFan]

A beautiful woman who has aged incredibly well.. She is still stunning...

[@ednan9]

You mean a man hidden as a man?

[@flonemtisor9094]

51. In May. Her scent is excellent..admirable!

[@GurpreetSingh-eu7mr]

One of most beautiful player still she is

[@GurpreetSingh-eu7mr]

Thanks

[@cityofchamps66]

Those eyes, that dark hair and skin, simply stunning, gives Love 40 a whole new meaning

[@earlcabbel5523]

I was a huge fan of Gabby and watching her floating on the tennis court with grace was a thing of beauty. She retired so young but looks to be at peace. She is still beautiful as ever. God bless.

[@beatlejim64]

She looks better then she ever did...WOW!!!

[@tomortale2333]

much more beautiful now...classy lookin lady

[@andreaskaphengst8121]

Beautiful inside and out! Her and Steffi were great ambassadors for the sport. Great role models!

[@izzonj]

I remember being in the electronics section of a dept store some time in the late 80s and stopping in front of a large TV showing a tennis match between Steffi Graff and Gabriella Sabatinni. I was just amazed at these two beautiful young women gliding back and forth on those gorgeous legs. I suddenly looked around me and realized they were 4 or 5 other men standing there staring transfixed at the screens.

[@Wiintb]

Gabby. Used to be crazy about Gabby during my school/college days! She is still the same. Nice.

[@collumww]

I thought she was beautiful in the 80's and 90's when she was playing. That was *nothing* to how stunning and enchanting she looks now a bit older. I only read good things about her personality as well, which just ices the cake.

[@marygaleac]

If this is recent…. The woman is 50!!! She must be the most beautiful 50yr old I’ve ever seen… Man!!!

[@ronniep9272]

I think it's at least 10-15 years old.

[@paulm1162]

A true beauty

[@narcyznarcyz-uv4td]

The older she is, the better she looks.😊

[@robomnemonic3751]

It's a man you fool

[@souldesire5932]

not a she first and foremost..

[@connieschultz9493]

She is so beautiful. I saw her when i was in Hilton Head SC in 1987. I watched her practice..

[@danielibanez7807]

....maravillosa Gabriela Sabatini !!!

[@CRISFREEWAY]

SHE´S UNIQUE. SHE BROUGHT GLAMOUR TO TENNIS AND HER TECHNIQUE WAS SUPERB. I CAN´T BELIEVE CONCHITA AND ARANTXA WERE NUMBER ONE AND SHE DIDN´T. THIS THINGS HAPPEN BUT WHO CARES. SHE IS STILL ONE OF THE MORE CHARISMATIC AND LOVED WOMAN ON TENNIS.

[@AitihunDohling]

My Favorite tennis player of all time.... My Idol and Hero

[@rocco...]

And to think she walked right towards me to retrieve a ball during a practice and looked up at me back in Miami in 1994. Literally hundreds of people followed her every move there.

[@americanitalianisrael4008]

She is a beautiful lady.I feel that Argentinians are very beautiful looking.The men are gorgeous.Good luck to Gabriela.

[@sheldondemas2111]

As gorgeous as ever!! One of my favorite sports heroes!!

[@Barbara-pr1ui]

🎂🎈🎁 happy birthday Gabi. Have a wonderful day. May God bless with many more. Hello from Wisconsin 💖💖

[@johnandrews5414]

I've always been a big fan.

[@markuse3472]

My goodness, such a gorgeous woman. That 1993 French Open loss to Mary Joe probably still hurts her fans to this day. I would hope she has gotten over it, even if it crosses her mind once in a while.

[@gcmacyman]

She is so gorgeous !!!!

[@HT_Ray]

Remove all the heavy makeup.....then decide

[@shafiqueansari3117]

Great icon,good n elegant player,respect from Bombay/India

WHAT À BEAUTIFUL WOMAN AND GREAT PLAYER ! 💓💓

[@mikejackson9472]

THE most beautiful woman athlete of all time

[@templeviewgate]

Charming lady, she is real elite player with polite skills. Love her smiles.

[@normadesmond6017]

she was magical. and one of the few who could beat Graf.

[@waleolabowale9825]

Sabatini Gabriella.. never forgotten that name Nice she's doing well!

[@CRISFREEWAY]

NO OTHER FEMALE PLAYER HAD IT ALL, TALENT, CHARISMA, HUMBLENESS AND BEAUTY. LOVE GABY

[@jorged06]

@Illya Kuryakin not the beauty, come one, Gaby is wayyyyy hotter

[@creativitycell]

Winning that US Open against Steffi Graff at in her unbeatable prime was the one if the greatest female Grand Slam wins of all time......it was such a tough match.......she really deserved her Grand Slam. X

[@carrerau7138]

Steffi was not in her unbeatable prime from spring 1990 until the end of 1991. Won only 1 of 9 major tournaments (slams, YECs) during that time (but 9 of 11 from 1988 until winter 1990).

[@zabaleta66]

Gorgeous woman.

[@clyde642006]

She is so gorgeous!❤ I’ve always thought she was pretty, but WOW!!! She’s incredibly beautiful today! I loved watching her play, she was such a great athlete during her time on the court. I’ve always thought that she should’ve won more grand slam titles because she was so good of a player.

[@gkiltz0]

Let's not forget: She DID play 11 years, and retire without a serious injury. So she does not have the constant pain that for example Tracy Austin has in her shoulder,/upper arm. She can actually have a good life rather than one of pain and repeated surgery. That's admirable. You could say noble

[@antonboludo8886]

I have seen her play twice. The second time I was in the third row.

[@TheMrBennito]

always good to see a girl transformed into a beautiful woman. She was a very interesting player because she did not have a great service, yet compensated that in many other departments of the game , specifically backhand and volley.

[@janiznick]

Man

[@paulbrandano3477]

I never followed Tennis but I knew who Gabriella was. I knew her name, I knew she played tennis and I knew she was very pretty and now I know she is gorgeous and I got to hear my favorite song in this video ( Kashmir by Led Zeppelin ) My night is complete. lol

[@louisco128]

You are forever beautiful Gabriella

[@stingstungme]

I would be so into Gabriela's matches that when she lost, I would be seriously depressed and sad. I would lose my appetite. And when she won, I would be so happy that I couldn't eat. Since Gabriela has retired, I've gained some weight. Bring her back!

[@luciacaceres895]

[@greatriffishere]

I'm a hardcore Seles fan, but i just fell in love with Gabriela beauty and personality!!

[@vaishbhonsle2558]

If you are a seles fan, Gaby was the only one who was willing to let seles retain her no 1 ranking after getting stabbed ,,, even graf and Martina opposed this move

[@markdecena4559]

@@vaishbhonsle2558 it’s always good to speak the truth. Unless of course you’re too sim to research before embarrassing yourself: from Wikipedia under the header 1993 stabbing attack. “The WTA suggested that Seles’ No. 1 ranking be preserved during her absence, but did not do so. According to Seles’ autobiography, all active tour players opposed the idea except Gabriela Sabatini, who abstained. A vote was held at a tournament in Rome in 1993, and 16 of the 17 top players who voted rejected the proposal - Graf did not participate in the tournament and was thus absent from voting. Of those who did vote, only Sabatini did not reject the idea of freezing Seles’ ranking until her return. “

[@k.ravishankar5063]

Underrated great player.

[@shazad1977]

Good days when she was playing.....watching her was best experience of the 90s. Pretty lady.

[@bryantsherman503]

The best looking 36 year old I have ever seen! Not knowing her personally I feel that she would probably say her best feature is her personality. Great smile and topspin backhand.

[@gramps7056]

On my USMC retirement fitness report, I chose the following duty stations: 3. Commander of Montana. 2. Taster, Jim Beam distillery. 1. Bodyguard, Gabriella Sabatini.

[@carrerau7138]

So do I.

[@rohitraghavan7552]

My childhood crush ❤️❤️❤️

[@euanelliott3613]

From what I gather she's a pretty good singer, and I know record companies were sending out signals of interest in the '80's, but I think that would have been even more publicised than tennis. She was always uncomfortable with the media and it showed. Peace love & equality.
