Available for over a year

Andrea Jaegar was one of the biggest talents in tennis in 1983. Huge expectations were on her shoulders after reaching world No 2 a year earlier, but infamously on Wimbledon Finals day against tennis legend Martina Navratilova, she decided to throw the match. Why? Jaegar explains how a combination of pressure from her father and being young on tour adversely effected her performance. Picture credit: Andrea Jaeger (Getty Images)
