Ganz, the Orange Bowl singles champion in both 1971 and 1972, is the daughter of an attorney and grew up in Miami Beach, Florida. She was short in stature at 5 ft 2 in. Her best performance on tour came at the 1975 French Open, where she had initially been expected to appear in qualifying, but received a spot in the main draw as a replacement for Ann Kiyomura. Despite being ranked 32 in the U.S. at the time, she registered main draw wins over Mariana Simionescu, Rosie Darmon and Dianne Fromholtz, before she fell in the quarter-finals to Martina Navratilova.[1][2]
