![]() ![]() So it was still a good year and a half, two years after that. PAM SHRIVER: Well, I talked about that the other day with somebody and I think that, you know, my best - as far as my best years, there was– it was ’87, ’88. It was - did it in any way mark a turning point in your career, at that point? It was on that same court and I remember it was a very emotional match for you. PAM SHRIVER: Yeah, it was the first lady’s match ever to do that. ![]() Pam, several years ago you played her in that wonderful three tiebreaks set match. So I needed to whole the serve to keep putting the pressure on her. ![]() She was hitting 98, 99, right to the line. You know, she - her serve in that last game was a joke. Then I got down Love-40, and you know, got back to 30-40, but I needed to be up 15-Love. I know - you know, I know to go the other way. I played a great first serve up the middle. And then the point in the second set was first point out, actually, first point after the delay. So those were the two points in that set. 15-Love backhand volley, just missed long a little bit. ![]() I missed a forehand up the line, and then, really, the big point on my serve was 5-6. Worked the point she played a backhand approach. I just - I am very aware that I had the one breakpoint 3-4 - excuse me - 4-All or 3-All? PAM SHRIVER: I didn’t dwell on it during the break, no. During the break, did you think of the possibilities you had in the first set? Pam Shriver Press Conference after losing to Steffi Graf ![]()
