Played in the era of the Great Stefi Graf she would have made more noise...

Just read that former Patriots, Packers, and Cowboys wide receiver Terry Glenn has died as a result of a motor vehicle accident.

RIP - A serve and volley artist. 49. So very young.

From and aesthetic standpoint, she was one of the best you could watch. I remember her blowing a big lead in the 3rd set of the Wimbledon final against Graf. She broke down in tears after the match. I wasn't a Steffi Graf supporter growing up, so I really wanted Novotna to win.

Years later she returned to do her talent justice and finally win that Wimbledon title.

Beautiful serve and volley player. Just an absolute treat to witness.
