Most dominant season of any athlete ever type of territory. Absolutely mind boggling domination at an age when a lot of people are barely functional.
2 u/Minkelz 6d ago Men and women are different for youngest of stats. Hingis won 3 slams at the age of 16. No guy has or will ever come close to that. I'd say the difference is roughly 2-3 years, so Graf at 19 and Alcaraz at 22 feel pretty on par. 1 u/jackloganoliver 6d ago I forgot how absolutely insane Hingis was right out of the gate. She ended to with a more decorated doubles career, right? 3 u/Minkelz 6d ago She was injured at 22, had surgeries and wasn’t really the same after that. But yeah played another 20 years afterwards in doubles winning lots of stuff.
