	A New Grand Slam Champion
		She has been a member of the WTA tour for only two years now, but in that short space of time, she has always managed to generate enough interest both on-court and off-court while establishing herself as one of the main contenders on the circuit.
		She adapted her mental approach to the Grand Slams with a lot more poise and maturity, and things have definitely paid off for her in that respect.
		In her last Grand Slam effort, she had bowed out of the third round at the French Open to veteran Mary Joe Fernandez - losing 6-0 in the decisive set.

	Grand Slam Champion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A Grand Slam Champion in professional wrestling is a distinction made to a professional wrestler who has won all of the major titles in a promotion.
		Because of this, a Grand Slam Champion is necessarily a Triple Crown Champion, which consists of the top two tiers of heavyweight belts and the tag team belts.
		In April 2006, Kurt Angle was described as a "former Grand Slam Champion" in a WWE auction, indicating that WWE considers the WWE Tag Team Championship to be an acceptable substitute for the World Tag Team Championship.

		And she went the distance for the first time in the last four Grand Slam finals with Venus, although the match once again was not anything to write home about, before securing her place in history with a 7-6 (7-4), 3-6, 6-4 victory.
		And in Serena's special style, she questions why one has to win all four Grand Slam trophies in the same year to be considered a true "Grand Slam" champion.
		But, of course, you have a great champion in Serena and she has won all four Grand Slams, which is something I'd love to do one day," you can bet she was extremely disappointed at posting another loss against her world No. 1 ranked sibling.

	CNNSI.com - Your Turn - Reactions: A Grand Slam or not? - Thursday April 05, 2001 02:13 PM
		I think Hootie Johnson described it best when he said something to the effect of, "I don't know if it's a Grand Slam, but it would be something grand." As big of a Tiger fan as I am, my opinion is that by definition, the feat cannot be considered the "Grand Slam".
		There may be arguments that there isn't an official definition per se, that the Grand Slam is the sum of its parts, which is media and public consent.
		The simultaneous holder of all four major tournaments is the holder of the Grand Slam of golf, no matter which tournament he won first.

		Sampras, who holds the grand slam record at 14, two more titles than other male player, has not played competitively since beating long-time rival Andre Agassi in four sets to win the 2002 US Open.
		It was perhaps his seventh and final Wimbledon victory in 2000 that left the biggest mark as, in the gathering Centre Court gloom, he beat Pat Rafter and clambered into the crowd to hug and kiss his parents, who had flown from California to watch only their second championship match.
		Many thought that might be his grand farewell, especially as it broke the grand slam record of Roy Emerson, but great champions set their own agendas.
