 PARIS (AP) - Steffi Graf brought back a flood of memories for French Open fans on Sunday when she returned, racket in hand, to the scene of her most emotional, and final, Grand Slam triumph.
Though she played only an exhibition mixed doubles match, Graf's rare court appearance the day before the start of the tournament served as a reminder, too, that the era has long since passed when one player dominated the women's tour for many years at a time.
The mother of two toddlers and wife of Andre Agassi, Graf is not about to take up tennis in seriousness again. For her, the sport was all or nothing, as it was for Monica Seles when she reigned and Martina Navratilova and Chris Evert did during their years at the top when the women's game was less deep.
