Steffi Graf remains the only player ever, male or female, to have won the Golden Slam, which is winning all 4 Grand Slams and the Olympic Gold medal in the same season. In this episode, I am joined by Vansh Vermani, a tennis enthusiast and writer for Cracked Racquets (follow them @CrackedRacquets). That season was remarkable no matter how you look at it. She was distributing bagels like it's no one's business, only lost 2 sets in all 4 slams, and an overall 13 sets to 148 in the season overall, losing only 3 matches. Regarded by most as the greatest season of all time, Steffi Graf's incredible year of dominance deserves an episode done solely for herself.It is also worth remembering: only 3 other players have won all 4 slams plus the Olympic Gold in their careers, not in the same year: Andre Agassi in 1996, Nadal in his great 2008 season, and Serena Williams finally achieved the Career Golden Slam in 2012. Follow Vansh for great tennis stats and commentary on twitter @vanshv2kFollow Tennis and Bagels Podcast:Instagram: @tennisandbagelsFacebook: /tennisandbagelsTwitter: @AndRolembergThanks for listening!--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/tennis-and-bagels/messageSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/tennis-and-bagels.
