My No. 4 memory of the Stadium Court goes back to 1990 and the women's final, when 15-year-old German Anke Huber defeated American Marianne Werdel, 6-1, 5-7, 6-4. [...] I'll never forget that at 4-3 in the final set, with Huber about to serve, the two women walked back onto the court after a changeover and were suddenly given an impromptu standing ovation. It was quite a moment.
