“Casual flex…” wrote a fan.
“Love that you’re always praising her! The goat,” wrote a second person.
Other tennis fans shared some statistics in the comments section, reminding the world of just how impressive Graff was as a tennis player. “Not only did she win gold at the Olympics that year, she also won all 4 Grand Slams,” wrote a fan. “When Novak lost to Daniil at US Open final in 2021, I had a deeper appreciation for Steffi’s Golden Slam achievement. People don’t talk about this enough!!”
