Steffi Graf's greatest Wimbledon victory?

Any one of those above titles could be considered great in their own right. However, I'm sure if you ask steffi she'll say it was Wimbledon 1988. It was in 1988 she achieved what is know as the Golden Slam. Steffi was down a set and a break and came back to win Wimbledon against Navratilova who had won six straight titles there. Very few men or women have ever won the Calendar Grand Slam as well as an Olympic Gold medal. Steffi also won the Wimbledon doubles title that year. As far as Wimbledon titles go, I have to cast my vote for 1988.
