Nobody could grunt like Monica. She makes Sharapova sound like a mouse.

I played tennis at junior level to a decent standard. I struggled with my forehand until I decided to try and copy Monica's two-handed on both sides approach, and I became better instantly. She was also a bit of a weird crush of mine.
