Well, it's certainly high time Monica was inducted into the Hall of
Fame, but her induction is subject to a vote:

MONICA MANIA

Nine-time Grand Slam champion Monica Seles heads the list of five
candidates for the next class in the International Tennis Hall of
Fame.

Former French Open winner Andres Gimeno and tennis-leaders Donald
Dell, Dr. Robert Johnson and Eiichi Kawatei also were put on the
ballot on Thursday.

Voting will be held for the next few months, and results will be
announced in January. The induction is set for 11th July in Newport,
R.I.

The 34-year-old Seles won four Australian Opens, three French Opens
and twice at the US Open. Known for shrieking when she made shots,
Seles finished as the world's No.1 player in 1991 and 1992.

She was 19 when a man came from the stands during a 1993 match in
Germany and stabbed her in the back. Seles was out of action for more
than two years, and later won the Australian Open.

There's also a stunning photo of Monica from the US Open 2008 Opening
Ceremony:
