About this listen

Annie sat under the big oak tree, gripping the magic racket tightly. The summer breeze rustled the leaves above her, but she barely noticed. Her heart pounded with excitement.

"Where to this time?" she whispered. The racket tingled in her hands, growing warmer by the second. Suddenly, the world around her blurred. The sound of sneakers squeaking on a hard court filled her ears. A stadium came into view, golden sunlight casting long shadows across the court. Annie gasped.

She was standing courtside at the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul. The scoreboard flashed: Women’s Singles Final – Steffi Graf vs. Gabriela Sabatini.
