Sánchez Vicario shocked the tennis world in 1989 when, as a virtually unknown 17-year-old, she defeated World No. 1 Steffi Graf in the final to become the youngest-ever winner of the women's singles title at the French Open.
Sánchez Vicario quickly developed a reputation on the tour for her tenacious fighting spirit and willingness to scamper around the court, refusing to concede a point.
Sánchez Vicario's most successful year as a singles player was 1994, when she won both the French Open and US Open titles.

 Arantxa Sanchez-Vicario, winner again on the European clay   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
However, her lack of focus was seemingly evident in the final against Arantxa Sanchez-Vicario who embarrassed her with a 6-1 6-0 rout, a match where nothing was going right for Spirlea with an incredible tally of errors and an inability to get any rhythm in her ground game.
Irina Spirlea meant to provide Arantxa with a test, owning a 5-3 win-loss record against her more experienced opponent, but was unable to gather her game and her focus in an incredibly one-sided final.
Contrastingly, Arantxa found some consistency and court speed in the final match and used these trademark features of her game to claim her first title of the year - the 27th of her career — and the winner’s cheque of $27,000.
