If there was a record in tennis, chances are Martina Navratilova broke it. When she defected from Czechoslovakia to the United States in 1975, no one but Martina could have envisioned that she would earn more titles than any other woman (or man) in tennis history. Her singles accomplishments include three Australian Open championships, two French Opens, four United States Opens and a record nine Wimbledon championships. She was voted the 1980's "Female Athlete of the Decade." She retired from professional singles competition in 1994 and went on to master myriad leisure sports including downhill snow skiing, snow boarding, scuba diving and competitive ice hockey. She took up photography, flying and authored several mystery novels. 2000 was a landmark year in Martina's celebrated career. She came out of retirement to return to professional doubles competition and was inducted into the International Tennis Hall Of Fame. She was named to such millennium lists as AP's "World's Greatest Athletes of the Century", "Sports Illustrated Top 100 Athletes of the Century" and ESPN's "Top 50 Athletes of the Century." Since then, she continued to rewrite tennis history with four major wins, three in 2003 (see related stories, below.) On and off the court, she is known as an influential advocate of causes including gay rights, the environment, animal welfare and women's issues.

Navratilova, who turns 47 next month, said Wednesday at the Sparkassen Cup tournament that she plans to play through the end of next season. Then, she wants to get involved with American politics, perhaps running for office. "If Arnold Schwarzenegger can run for governor in California, then who knows? I have the muscles," said Navratilova, a Czech-born U.S. citizen who lives in Colorado. "I will be involved, especially the way things are going right now. The conservative party is too strong." She ranks among the greatest tennis players ever, with a total of 58 Grand Slam titles: 18 in singles, 31 in doubles, and nine in mixed doubles.

Breaking Point by Martina Navratilova, Elizabeth Nickles A tennis promoter's assistant plunges to her death at a gala reception in Paris. And Jordan Myles, women's tennis-champ-turned-sports-therapist, is convinced it was no accident.

But when someone tries to run Jordan off the road, she knows she's onto something more than sinisteras she faces off with a killer opponent in a game of sudden death. . . .

Martina Navratilova Can you imagine having to ask permission to leave your own country? When Martina Navratilova was young she couldn't leave Czechoslovakia without asking the government for permission. Martina started playing tennis when she was very young. She used to borrow her grandmother's old tennis racket and hit tennis balls against a wall. She took her first lesson when she was only six years old. Her first teacher was her stepfather, Mirek. She played in her first tournament when she was eight years. She joined the Czech National team and got to travel and see countries where people were free. It made her unhappy to live where she was not free. In 1975, she decided to defect. (Defect means to run away from your country.) She was sad but she knew it was the right thing to do. In 1976, Martina lost her first match at the US Open. It really shook her up. She had been eating too many hamburgers and too much pizza. She really wasn't working very hard either. She decided that she needed to work as hard as she could and get better. By 1978 Martina was back on top, winning tournaments and she was ranked the #1 woman tennis player in the world. In 1981 Martina became a United States citizen. She won the Grand Slam of tennis in 1984. In order to win the Grand Slam you have to win Wimbledon, the French Open, the Australian Open and the U.S. Open all in the same year. In 1984 Marina was made a member of the International Women's Sports Hall of Fame. The Associated Press and United Press International named her 1980s Female Athlete of the Decade. Martina Navratilova won Wimbledon nine times-a record. She retired in 1994 but she still plays team tennis and does exhibitions sometimes.

She stepped up her campaigning for lesbian and gay rights and spoke at the march on Washington DC in April 1993.

Navratilova’s wild card and Seles called off By Etienne Stekelenburg - May 15 2004 Tennis veteran Martina Navratilova received a wild card for the French Open singles competition. At her request she was granted the wild and card making her singles comeback at Roland Garros after 10 years. At the age of 47 she is preparing herself on a clay court in Europe. It's 20 years ago since tennis legend Martina Navratilova won her last title in Paris at the French Open. Tournament director Stéphane Simian explained that this was the reason to hand Navratilova the wild card, “as one of the tennis all-time greats, Martina surely deserves the privilege”. Last month at Amelia Island Navratilova made her singles comeback. She played her last Grand Slam match at Wimbledon when she lost in against Conchita Martinez in the 1994 final. Leaving for the very last time she pulled out a tuft of center court grass for a keepsake. Another tennis legend had to call off her appearance at the French Open. Thirty-year-old Monica Seles still suffers from a stress fracture in her left foot. It has been a year ago, at the French Open, since she played her last match. When she will return is not certain. “If I come back, I want to come back in every sense”, Monica Seles said about her return to the courts. “I am an impatient person and I need to come back slowly and see how my food holds in practice”. Seles does not want to push it with the possibility of re-injure her foot.
