Forget about aces. Or double faults. Or even unforced errors. The most telling stat apparently is how much noise Seles apparently makes (not much), and how distracting it is to the opposition (not really).
Listen to Navratilova after she lost to Seles, 6-2, 6-7 (3-7), 6-4.
"It just gets louder and louder," fourth seed Navratilova, 35, said after seeing her chance at a 10th title denied. "You can not hear the ball being hit. If you judge by the noise that is emanating from the other side of the court, the ball should be coming over pretty hard. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't."
Listen to Seles after she advanced to her first Wimbledon final.
