OK, so you are listing some of Chris Evert's losses from 1979-1981. What they have to do with her rivalry with Austin, who knows?!?!
But I give you this: take Chris Evert's record for 1979-1981 and compare it with any other player's record for 3 consecutive years (of my choosing). And I GUARANTEE Chris comes out on top against EVERYONE! Hands down!
You said that match was one sided but you know it was closer than the 7/6 6/1 final Evert lost
That was horrible
For Evert fans of course, not for Evonne' s:;-)
In your desperate attempt to enhance your idol not only you belittle Austin,who as you posted had a clear HtH advantage over Chris, but also Goolagong
She had beaten Hana,Tracy and Evert to win Wimbledon...and her easiest match, by far, was the one against Chrissie
