5 greatest French Open women's singles finals of all-time

# Monica Seles vs Steffi Graf (1992)

Monica Seles at the 1992 French Open Final

6 June 1992 was a day to remember in Roland Garros history as two players with a much talked about rivalry played an absolute classic final at the Court Phillippe Chatrier Arena. The stage was set for an enthralling contest as two-time defending champion and top-seed Monica Seles faced off against her greatest rival, German Steffi Graf.

Both women were chasing their third title at Roland Garros but left-handed Seles was looking to become the only woman in the Open Era to win a hat-trick of titles at Roland Garros.

With two breaks of serve, Seles quickly wrapped up the first set. However, Graf chasing her first French Open title since winning the Golden Slam in 1988 was determined to win at Roland Garros again as she scripted a comeback taking the second set 6-3. However, Graf looked nervous as she squandered a break of serve after winning one of her own and her serve looked shaky throughout.

The third set was a titanic clash as the two players raised their game to the next level. At 5-3, Seles had four Championship points but all of them were saved by Graf. Then, Seles lost her own serve as Graf drew the score at 5-5. After that, both players would hold on to their serves for the next couple of games. Seles eventually took the match in what was her sixth Championship point. The scoreline read 6-2, 3-6, 10-8 in Seles's favour.
