I have to say for me it was the 1992 French Open final when Monica defeated Steffi 6-2 3-6 10-8. Both players were so nervous at the start as this is one of the biggest match ups in tennis history at the time but once they got underway neither would budge an inch. Monica looked as if she'd cracked Steffi when she clung on for 5-3 in the 3rd but a stonelike Steffi stormed back forcing Monica to serve to stay in the match which Monica did by raising her game to scary levels and cleaning the lines. I've never seen a player looking as determined to win as Monica did towards the end but it was a great mental effort from both players.
