Gabriela Sabatini had already won the prestigious Orange Bowl at the age of 13, and she finished the 1984 season as the best junior player in the world. At 15, she played in the semi-finals of Roland Garros. She won her first title in the main cycle in 1985 in Tokyo. In total, she won 27 in singles and 13 in doubles. She reached the third position in the WTA ranking.
Sabatini appeared on the tour at the same time as Steffi Graf. Together with the German, they formed a great doubles pair in the 80s. They played in Grand Slam finals four times, but only won the title once. In 1988 they were the best on the Wimbledon lawns.
At the age of 26, Sabatini made the decision to end her career. The attractive Argentine was massively popular all around the world. As a player, she was known as a quiet and modest person. Nothing bad could be said about her.
Launching her own perfume line proved to be a success, which to this day enjoys immense popularity among women. Her first scent came out when she was 18 years old. For many years, the perfume was a real hit in the market.
She was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame in 2006, but she did not cease her efforts to promote the development of tennis. She also helped children around the world.
"Loud romances of Sabatini"
In the past, there was also a lot of talk about her several romances. According to the media, the famous tennis player supposedly had an affair with Donald Trump when he was still married to Ivana, and then in a relationship with Marla. They first met in 1989, and their acquaintance lasted a month. Afterward, Sabatini was suspected of having more affairs, including one with Ricky Martin.
Over the years, you learn to set boundaries and decide what is good for you. I am more selective about what I do and only meet with those people whom I really want to be with. This new life is very satisfying - said Sabatini a few years ago.
