What a nice pic, huh?! I know it’s not colored or not anything of rare. Seemingly, it’s just an old, some retrospective monochrome photo. Most youngsters even don’t see who they are, I suppose. But to all tennis fans of 80’s, it’d be awesome and heartfelt one. This pic’s very symbolic that might indicate that how much Hana’s on a roll enough to rock the tennis circuits at the time.

Hana, with her lips pursed as if she had something deep in her mind, raised her hand toward blue sky proudly, she might have said to herself like, “it’s just the beginning. All of you, you watch me.” Hana lived up to our expectation, she made her achievement fiercely enough to be a finalist against Chris Evert (Hana lost, though) in Wimbledon that year. 1981 is unforgettable year for both Hana and us.

I love this Hana’s expression on her face.
She was just full of power you just can't imagine!
