It happened twice in August 1995 to November 1996.

They were tied for Number 1 from August 15, 1995 to November 3, 1996. Graf then had two weeks of being the sole Number 1 from November 4, 1996 to November 17, 1996. They then both shared Seles's last days as Number 1, for a week from Novemeber 18, 1996 to November 24, 1996.

This means that they were tied for Number 1 for a total of 65 weeks.

but those ravlaries are hard to come by. i mean to have two players so evenly in points is extremely hard. both players have to win like the same amount of matches and everything. very hard in today's game where th competion is very tough
