He was one of my idols many years before. But now ? Only famous for making Babys at strange places with different women. Still unable to speak German and some English.
No way, just see how often Lendl lost against Becker: Wimbledon 1986 finals, US-Open 1988 finals just as 2 examples.
And in the year 1988 when Boris was at his absolute best, he won 2 Grand Slams and the Tour Finals. He gained most ranking points of all players in that year and came so very close to No. 1 in the ranking. And he got the ATP title "Player of the Year". So even though he wasn't No. 1 rank that year, he was howevery the best player in the world (let's leave out sand courts :p )
Boris, c toute mon enfance de fan, suivre ses victoires à Wimbledon avec ses plongeons mémorables, ses services qui alarmaient les compteurs, et malheureusement pas de Roland Garros au compteur...Un champion au charisme incroyable qui faisait mon coeur faire BOOM BOOM !!!!
that was in 1988. the year after cash won Wimbledon. He was extremely pissed about it and that the acting of boris was disrespectful. anyways, becker won that match.
ist in der jugend mein vorbild.aber ich bin ein penner geworden.wegen die leute hier in regensburg.kann immer noch kein tennis spielen für mich spielt alles noch eine rolle.
Boris, mon joueur préféré pour toujours:un charisme et un talent exceptionnel, un n°1 né mais finalement pour X raisons, un palmarés pas à la hauteur de son talent malheureusement. Car il avait sa période pour être le n°1.
what a great video! thank you...Boris was an inspiration...every thing he did was mesmerizing...i wish he had won more titles but then he wouldn't have been the Boris we all know...and yes, Becker was much bigger in Germany than Jordan was in the US
Becker's influence on tennis in his early years was unlike any other player period in any sport. He totally changed the way the game was played within a year. If this guy was from the U.S. he would have been bigger than Michael Jordan.
Man, I fully agree !! He brought in power and agressiveness never seen before in tennis. Pure adrenaline and a superb technique. One of those players that are impossible to forget !!
It seamed that in the 1991 final he was playing against more opponents than Michael Stich. But when he was in "the zone" he was unbeatable and amazing to watch. And maybee the most charismatic player ever
Becker is the most talented tennis player I've ever seen - period. He doesn't have the titles to prove it, but ask anyone who saw him play in his era. If Boris could have beaten the demons within, he might have beaten a few more players. Awesome video.
I totally agree he was a very talented player...my favorite as I was growing up...however I think there's no doubt that everything changed when Roger Federer came along...another level of talent. You have to agree to this right?
I would say that Federer is another level of focus. We are all entitled to our opinions, and mine is that Boris was the best. I don't think you'll ever see another play tennis at the level he played it between the years of 17-21. Unbelievable.
I wish I could answer that one. Only Boris knows. It has been well documented that he was addicted to sleeping pills, which affected his performance against Edberg and Stich in two separate Wimbledon finals. What was he wrestling with? Watching him from day one, I always got the sense that Boris never played his opponent; he was battling someone else.
I believe he would have won at least 2 more Grand Slams. Either way, you have to consider his impact when he is way more popular than players with more titles.
The latter part of his career I would agree with you on the "balltling someone else" perspective...but certainly not early or mid-way through his career.
Love This video! Boris Becker, Pete Sampras, and John McEnroe are my three favorite players of all time. Boris was simply one of the most entertaining and talented players to ever step onto a court. By the way, the voice you hear at 01:18 is John McEnroe. If you have anymore matches of Becker, can you post them?
i just regret he did not win one more wimbledon in 1990 or 1991: he lost first to Edberg and later admitted to have taken sleeping pills on the eve of the final which him slow at the start.Then ,against Stich, he was a little too passive and lost 2 tiebreaks that cost him the match.
Finally, it's a shame he did not win any single tournament on clay.He was an all-round player and should 've done it.
One of the greatest of all time

If you don't let the German tennis players win, the German fans come down out of the stands and stab the opponent.
