'I know my trophies have a wonderful home and hope they inspire young children to pick up a racquet and hit a few balls, and fall in love with the game the way I did,' Seles said.

Seles won French Open three times, the Australian Open three times and the U.S. Open twice when she was stabbed by a deranged Steffi Graf fan during a changeover at a tournament in Hamburg in 1993.

She added another Australian Open title in 1996, her ninth major and also the last when she was 22.

Seles won 53 titles on the women's tour and earned $14 million in prize money. She became a U.S. citizen in 1994 and played on five U.S. Federation Cup teams, helping the Americans to win the Fed Cup three times. She was on the U.S. Olympic Team in 1996 and 2000 and earned a bronze medal in 2000.
