Hingis wasn't over the loss in Roland Garros that's how this happened

[@anthonybailey1966]

Not the only reason.....Dokic was on fire also!

[@GaryTornado-zy2mz]

@@anthonybailey1966Dokic certainly proved to be the sort of player you don’t want to play if you’re off your game certainly against Hingis 😊

[@iamshadowbanned699]

I also read that Melanie Molitor didn't attend her daughter's match for the first time in years. Combine this with the painful loss at the French and a brilliant player who has nothing to lose it's a perfect storm against Martina.

Graf completely obliterated Hingis' self-confidence after losing the French Open to an aging, retirement-bound competitor two weeks prior.

1999 proved to be the changing of the guard as Des would hand the (anchor) baton over to Sue.
