The stars of our sport shared stories about their heroes, both in life and on the court, and how these idols shaped who they are today. For more "My Hero" submissions, click here.

Monica Seles was a great influence for me. I remember even when I was a kid, and when I would lose a match or something, my parents never talked about victories or losses, they always talked about my behavior. It was just important to behave well. Monica was like this. She was fighting for everything, but she was never acting bad on court.
