Is it okay to drink an energy drink before playing tennis or any sports?
She was born and lives in Barcelona, Spain. She is probably the greatest "retriever" ever to play the game. She is one of the few players ever to reach the top level of the game while relying much more on defense than offense. And she won 4 grand slams and reached 8 more finals. In the mid-90s, with the decline of Sabatini, the retirement of Martina, the stabbing of Monica and the pre-emergence of Venus, Serena, Hingis and Davenport, Arantxa Sanchez Vicario was the only player on tour who could give Steffi Graf a challenging match with any consistency.She is mostly remembered for her fighting spirit. She was perfectly happy to hit high topspin shots deep and to the middle of the court for hours at a time. She played percentages and made very few errors, which was a very intimidating playing style as the power game became more popular, because all the other girls were making unforced errors. I believe in Tennis magazine there was a quote about her that was something like, "She frustrated players by chasing down everything thrown at her and gave her opponents one message: 'I could do this all day.'"
Look for some of her old matches on Ebay or YouTube. They're worth a look.
