Iva Majoli Maric (born August 12, 1977 in Zagreb, Croatia) is a former professional tennis player from Croatia. Majoli played her best tennis as a teenager, reaching her career high ranking of World No. 4 in 1996. Majoli also won eight singles titles and one women's doubles title during her career.
Majoli turned professional in 1991 at the age of 14. At age 19, Majoli won the 1997 French Open singles title, defeating Martina Hingis in straight sets. Most had expected Hingis, 16 years old, to win the title. She upset Martina Hingis to win the women's singles title.
In 2002, Majoli, ranked World No. 58, defeated Patty Schnyder (ranked World No. 30) in the final of the Family Circle Cup in Charleston, South Carolina. The victory increased Majoli's ranking to World No. 33.
Majoli reached another final shortly thereafter, prompting some to believe that she was climbing back to the top of the game. This, however, was wishful thinking, as Majoli's ranking then plummeted even further. On June 12, 2004, Majoli announced her retirement from the game.
Majoli married a local businessman, Stipe Maric, on September 9, 2006, with Jennifer Capriati and Mary Pierce attending the wedding. Majoli gave birth to her daughter Mia on October 31, 2006.
In 2007, Majoli participated in the second season of the Croatian version of Dancing with the Stars. Her partner was Marko Herceg. She was eliminated in the fourth episode.
