G.O.A.T.
There don't seem to have been many threads about Maureen Connolly on TTW for a few years, although Margaret Court is still in vogue. So, my question: had Connolly not been injured in the horse-riding accident, how long would it have taken Court or Bueno (or possibly Gibson a few years earlier, though that seems doubtful to me) to rival her? At the time of Court's first Slam title at the Australian Open 1960, Connolly had only just turned 25. Court was just 17.
