Origin
and identity

Martina Hingis made anticipation, placement and tactical imagination powerful enough to challenge the sport's biggest hitters.

Hingis arrived as a remarkably complete teenager. In 1997 she won three major singles titles and became No. 1, using anticipation and angles to open up the court.

Her later career demonstrated how well that intelligence translated to partnerships. Doubles and mixed doubles brought another wave of major trophies, and she finished her final season in 2017 sharing the top doubles ranking.
