During a career that spanned from 1973 to 2006, with a hiatus between 1996 and 2000, Navratilova became the most successful female player in the Open era. Her 59 grand-slam titles (including 18 singles titles and 41 doubles and mixed doubles trophies) remains a record, as does her nine Wimbledon singles championships. In all she won 167 singles and 177 doubles titles.

In 1975 the then 18-year-old Navratilova defected to the US from communist Czechoslovakia, though in 2008 she regained her Czech citizenship.
