She certainly lived up to it later on.

Why a woman with such huge career earnings still felt the need to act out the role of golddigger is beyond me. I guess evolutionary psychology dies hard.

The funniest and wittiest response ever of a professional tennis player to a remark from the stands.
Steffi Graf!

Is there one important record this woman doesn't hold?

I can't tell if your comment is racist or sexist. Please illuminate. I do know I'd love to see what you site as an example of Steffi Graf goldigging. I hope it's not just because she married a rich guy.

Exclamation The "Pithy" Proboscis, Steffi Graf: an objective analysis

to the rest of you : this is just a personal "tweak-fest" between my homie Condi and I; you need not bother reading into this.....

Steffi Graf
!
Steffi Graf (to spectator): "How much money do you make?"

Analysis: Steffi Graf's reprehensible inquisitiveness of monetary accquisitiveness does not remotely suggest to the 'humorously honed' ear, a sense that her 'funny bone' is in tune with the "socially evolved." Her quip couldn't even be tagged as worthy of, a Joan Rivers, for example. Whatever fraternal traits Ms. Graf shares with the heavily plasticized and botoxed Ms. Rivers, they clearly are not based on an inherent ability to combine clever conception with facetious expression as is often the case with Ms. Rivers. No, Ms. Graf's gauche, impotent attempt at pithy repartee, more to the points, suggests that the only "fraternal" traits she shares with Ms. Rivers is the socially tasteless, run-of-the-mill AVARICE commonly found among the nouveau riche.

Conclusion: "So....how much money do you make?" ???
Clearly, not exactly a George Bernard Shaw-type "come-back."


To help further illustrate the "witty" (not) point: here are two other examples that are clearly out of the one-track-mind-$ "golddigger" Graf's league:

1. After (McEnroe) walks towards the chair to argue a call in the begining of a match....
Spectator: "Come on Mac! Already now?!"
McEnroe (to spectator): "What's your problem? You got a f*cking appointment you've got to get to?"
Analysis: Crude, but infinitely more inventive than Graf.

2. Another time, McEnroe (to heckling spectator): "What other problems do you have apart from being unemployed, a moron and a dork?"
Analysis: Churlish, but again, infinitely more inventive than Graf.

Kind of like their respective games.
Graf: one dimensional
McEnroe: incendiary at times, yet infinitely more inventive

A couple. Here's two:

I. Most times stabbed by a Steffi Graf fan while trying to play a tennis match......in Germany.

II. Most times stabbed by a Steffi Graf fan while trying to play a tennis match....anywhere.

(or do they not qualify as "important?")

Heil Steffi! Happy New Year, Condi

Please, oh God, don't bring up Monica Seles or the stabbing in this thread. The last thing I want is a hijacked thread. This was just supposed to be a bit of a laugh, don't make it into a huge argument. -_-

II. Most times stabbed by a Steffi Graf fan while trying to play a tennis match....anywhere. ....
Not important.


BTW, who is Miss Rivers?

Condi

PS: Graf never said "How much money to you make?"
So your conclusions are wrong from the start.

As almost always, Penthouse ....

Thanks, I almost overlook that.

IMO, the stabbing didn't alter the course of tennis history as certain patriotic circles among U.S. tennis fans want it to make us believe.
Seles was injured for about 4 weeks and had some motivational problems afterwards. But Graf - coming out of her horrible slump - was rising to her former peak again in summer of 1993 and would have become #1 anyway.
We must not forget that even #1 Seles lost 5 of 7 matches against Graf.
Which is more than 70 %. A fact those U.S. Seles fans always try to avoid ...

Condi
