• Winner of 40 singles titles and 36 doubles titles on the WTA Tour; 14-time Grand Slam champion (five in singles and nine in women’s doubles)
• Youngest ever to rank at No. 1 on March 30, 1997 (16 years, six months, bettering Seles’ record by nine months) and spent 209 of next 247 weeks at the top between 1997 and 2001, with only Davenport briefly interrupting her reign; only Swiss player to reach that pinnacle with only Graf, Navratilova and Evert amassing more weeks in total at the top
• Ranked No. 1 in singles and doubles simultaneously for a total of 35 weeks during June 1998-March 2000; one of only five players to reach the top of both WTA Rankings at the same time, joining Navratilova (1984-85; 1986-87), Sanchez-Vicario (1995), Davenport (2000) and Clijsters (2003)
• Became 24th woman at the time to pass 400 singles win milestone (at 2001 Indian Wells, 3r d. Torrens Valero) and third youngest behind Evert and Graf

• Won at least one singles title between 1996-2002, one doubles title every year between 1995-2002 and at least one million dollars per season for seven straight years (1996-2002), including four consecutive $3-million seasons between 1997 and 2000
• Competed in 30 Grand Slams (29 of them consecutively until left ankle surgery on May 20, 2002 forced her out of Roland Garros and Wimbledon); won five singles titles (1997-99 Australian Open, 1997 Wimbledon and 1997 US Open), reached seven finals and between 1996 US Open and 2002 Australian Open, failed to reach the SF or better of those 22 Slams only three times: Wimbledon 1999-2001
• Precocious debut on WTA Tour on October 4, 1994 in Zurich (four days past her 14th birthday), d. world No. 45 Fendick before losing to No. 5 Pierce in 2r; reached QF at next two events in Filderstadt and Essen, improving ranking from No. 378 to No. 87 in those three weeks; reached first Tour final at 1995 Hamburg (youngest runner-up since Capriati at 1990 Hilton Head) d. No. 5 Novotna and No. 10 Huber before falling to No. 4 C. Martinez, ending the year at No. 16
• First major breakthrough was at 1996 US Open, just 25 days from her 16th birthday, becoming third youngest semifinalist there (behind Jaeger-1980 and Capriati-1991), d. No. 3 Sanchez and No. 7 Novotna before falling to Graf after holding 5 set points in opening set; that result catapulted her to her first Tour title at Filderstadt five weeks later (d. three Top 10 players); youngest to pass $1 million in career earnings by beating Seles to win Oakland title, qualifying for the season-ending Championships and extending No. 1 Graf to five sets; improved her ranking from No. 16 to No. 4 after six tournaments in 14 weeks; became youngest Wimbledon champion by claiming doubles title w/Sukova (15 yrs, 282 days)
• Career-best season of 1997, where she won three of the four Grand Slam finals she reached, losing only to Majoli in the finals of Roland Garros, which snapped her 37-match unbeaten start to the season (tied for second best all-time); won 12 titles and 67 of 69 matches through September; her 75-5 (0.938) season record was the best of any player during the 1990s; one of only three players between 1988 and 2003 to reach every Grand Slam final in a year (Graf in 1988-89, 1993 and Seles in 1992)
• In 1998, became only fourth woman all-time to win all four Grand Slam doubles titles in same year (after Bueno in 1960 and Navratilova/Shriver in 1984)

Williams in 2001 Australian Open QF 62 36 86; while these losses proved equally memorable: l. 1999 Roland Garros final to Graf 46 75 62 where she was three points from winning, serving for the match at 5-4 second set, l. 2000 US Open SF to V. Williams 46 63 75 - two points from winning serving at 5-3 final set and l. 2002 Australian Open final to Capriati 46 76(7) 62 after holding 4 mp
