Oh please, Seles will take every opportunity to crap all over Graf again. She'll whine about how all the other mean girls on the WTA took away her ranking, a ranking she believed she should have kept (along with all of the endorsement money that comes with it) without any sort of imminent return date to the tour. She probably believed all of the Grand Slams should have been postponed until she came back. She was an extraordinarily selfish athlete during most of her playing career and you won't read about that in her autobiography.

Ouch!

I always felt like there were two Monica's... One pre-stabbing (the one you describe), and one post-stabbing... The latter being nausiatingly gracious (saying things like her opponent was a great player, after beating the poor scrub 1 and 1), seemingly in attempt to right the perceived wrongs from earlier in her career.

I suspect it will focus on the three most crucial points in her life/career: 1) Her father's influence and his death; 2) The stabbing; and 3) Her career demise due to the foot. And yes, with a decent amount of stuff in between fairly well glossed over.

But I'm hoping, in futility, that it's far more Tauziatesque.
