This was the first ever professional tournament for 14-year old Venus Williams. Williams defeated Shaun Stafford in the first round and faced Sánchez Vicario (then World No. 2) at the second round. Williams won the first set and was leading 3–1 in the second set, but Sánchez Vicario won the next 11 games in a row and won the match 2–6, 6–3, 6–0.[4]

The match was recreated in the film King Richard, released in 2021, where Sánchez Vicario (played by Mexican tennis player Marcela Zacarías) showed her discomfort after being portrayed as the antagonist of the film.[5]
