Getting To Know....Corina Morariu


Listen Later

It's Australian Open champions month for the FANTASTIC TENNIS podcast! We kick off episode 8 by catching up with a former #1 doubles player in the world, Corina Morariu. Her story is one of strength and perseverance, and one that had the entire tennis world cheering her on. After being on top of the world and winning her second grand slam at the 2001 Australian Open, Corina would be diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia that would see her out of the sport and battling an opponent far tougher than she'd ever face on a tennis court. After beating cancer, she would mount a successful comeback that would see her once again make an appearance in an Australian Open final, this time in 2005. Listen as Corina, joined by one of her biggest fans, takes a fun walk down memory lane to discuss her road to becoming #1, why she was so nervous winning her 1999 Wimbledon title and her take on the infamous night match during her singles comeback at the 2002 US Open against Serena Williams and the iconic catsuit. It's time to catch up and reacquaint yourself with the FANtastic, Corina Morariu.
