At first glance, winning seems impossibly easy for Diede de Groot; an almost nonchalant habit of 69 consecutive victories, yielding a Golden Slam
– all four grand slams and a Paralympic gold medal – in 2021, followed by a calendar grand slam in 2022. Together, these achievements amounted to a back-to-back calendar grand slam never before achieved in tennis as De Groot completed the set with victory at this year’s US Open in the wheelchair women’s singles, confirming her status as the most dominant player of her generation.
” ‘Now I’m just going to enjoy it’ Once De Groot reached the professional circuit, her potential was quickly evident as she won a grand slam at the third attempt, but her early career weaknesses became visible too. “In the last two years, my mental game has gone up so much,” she says. “Before, I was good at tennis and I could already hit the shots that I am hitting today. But then in my head, sometimes I would just lose it.
