Former Grand Slam champions Sam Stosur and Jennifer Capriati celebrated their birthdays over the past couple of days while being in self-isolation.
Australia's Stosur turned 36 years old on 30th March. She is a former World No. 1 in doubles, a ranking which she held for 61 weeks, and a former world No. 4 in singles. She has won a total of 38 titles on the WTA Tour: nine in singles, 26 in doubles and three in mixed doubles, winning over $18 million in prize money. Stosur won the 2011 US Open for her biggest singles win, defeating Serena Williams in the final and becoming the first Australian woman since Evonne Goolagong Cawley in 1980 to win a Grand Slam singles tournament. She has also won six other Grand Slam titles in doubles - the 2005 US Open, 2006 French Open, and 2019 Australian Open women's doubles events, and the 2005 Australian Open, 2008 Wimbledon Championships and 2014 Wimbledon Championships mixed doubles events.
Capriati turned 44 years old on 29th March. The American is a member of the International Tennis Hall of Fame, and a former World No. 1. She has won three Grand Slam singles championships - the 2000 Australian Open and French Open and the 2001 Australian Open. She also won the gold medal at the 1992 Summer Olympics.
Capriati was one of the biggest teen phenoms in tennis - making her professional debut in 1990 at the age of 13 years, 11 months, reaching the final of the hard-court tournament in Boca Raton, Florida. Capriati reached the semifinals of the French Open in her debut and later became the youngest ever player to reach the top 10 at age 14 years, 235 days in October of that year. She won 14 professional singles tournaments during her career, along with one women's doubles title.
