As Anqelique Kerber reminded everyone by reaching the last 32 at Wimbledon, there's much more to German women's tennis than archive footage of Steffi Graf running around her backhand.
All across the All England Club this summer, conversations keep turning to Graf, once the Fraulein Forehand or Iron Maiden of the lawns.
That's mostly because of Serena Williams, as the Californian has the opportunity this fortnight to put herself level with Graf on 22 majors, the record for the modern era.
But it's also because of Kerber, who in January's Australian Open final defeated Williams to become the first German woman this millennium, since Graf's 1999 Roland Garros triumph, to score a Grand Slam title.
You think it's been unsettling for Williams since winning her 21st major at Wimbledon last July, as she has spent the last year toiling under
Graf's long shadow? Well, imagine being Kerber, who's had a whole career of it.
But now Kerber is playing Wimbledon for the first time as a Grand Slam champion, and perhaps that elevation in status could give her some additional self-assurance to help her through any tricky moments coming her way. It's hardly beyond the realms of possibility that Kerber, who defeated America's Varvara Lepchenko 6-1, 6-4 in all-lefty, second-round match on Court 18, could also emulate Graf by taking this title, too.
It's 20 years now since Graf won the Venus Rosewater Dish, but maybe she will soon lose her status as the last German woman to have attended the Champions' Dinner. With French Open champion Garbine Muguruza losing in the second round, Kerber is the only one of this year's Grand Slam champions still in the draw.
"I'm fine," she reported afterwards, at about the same time that Muguruza was bumped out of The Championships.
While Kerber had a blip on the clay of Roland Garros, where she lost in the opening round, she patently knows how to win on grass as she demonstrated by making the semi-finals in 2012, and she was never in danger here. If Kerber is searching for any more motivation this fortnight, she is among a group of players who could potentially depose Williams at the top of the rankings on the Monday after the tournament.
After her opening match against Britain's Laura Robson, which inevitably attracted a great deal of attention, this match was a quieter affair. Court 18 is a rectangle of grass that will be forever be associated with the longest match in history when John Isner needed more than 11 hours to beat Nicolas Mahout. This match, though, was very brief, all done in 54 minutes.
And after the speediest of first sets, which Kerber won in 18 minutes, it did look at one stage as though this it might be over even sooner.
