It was a sensational match, an absolute highlight of sport. Not a second of it was shown on British TV. The British public were not even aware of it. Then we complain why we are a shit tennis nation. As a tennis lover i had to read the small print in the sports pages to get the results throughout the tournament.
An incredible, emotional, and very exciting match that's unforgettable. Every time it seemed Connors was on the verge of being out of it, he dug deep and came back. Great guts. I believe he might have been down in the 5th set too.
@ridewave444 Agassi owned Connors since he was 18, back in 1988, three years before this video, when Connors was younger, but the other young guns like Krickstein had trouble with the crowd-taunter Connors, the old ego-case war horse.
@DexterHaven49 Agassi never "owned" PRIME Connors. Know your shit, he defeated an old and aging Connors since he was basically a younger, faster and most powerful version of Connors , game wise. And the "crowd taunting" is called ENTERTAINMENT and INVOLVING the crowd into the game.
Connors is the most entertaining and amazing character in tennis history and he owns anyone else personnality wise nowadays.
@MisterBigJones Nope, ask any tennis pro. Connors was an asshole, not liked by his peers. Funny to see him put down Agassi and then get his ass handed to him by Andre as a teenager with bleached hair who weighed about 110 lbs. Serves Connors right. And then Agassi got a bigger final applause at Flushing Meadows than Connors ever did. Fans' choice: Agassi. Tour's choice: Agassi.
@DexterHaven49 Connors was a tennis genius who still has many tennis records to this day, something Agassi will never ever achieved in his dreams like winning the US Open on three difference surfaces and doing the little grand slam in 1974 WITHOUT playing the French Open at all. Has Agassi ever gotten the standing ovations Connors got at any grand slam ? Answer : No. Has Agassi ever beaten a prime Connors ? No just the aging one. But more important. Agassi was on ANABOLIC Steroids. Connors NOT
@DexterHaven49 That's right the overrated guy you're defending was a juicer and a cheater, comparing him to a frickin icon of the sport who did more for it than Agassi could have ever dreamed of is quite insulting and laughable at the very least.
People now has zero respect for someone who CHEATED via Anabolic Steroids and I will never have any.
Connors won more matches (1,337) than any other male professional tennis player in the open era.
@MisterBigJones Andre should sue you for defamation for that false charge. The only drug Andre tested positive for was crystal meth in 1997, you idiot, a performance DETRACTING DRUG. It hurt his game in 1997, that's why he fell to 141 in the ranking, you damn liar! Get your facts straight before you bear witness to someone else. You could go to Hell for that violation of theTen Commandments actually, depending on your religion.
@DexterHaven49 You WILL Go To HELL You and the whole "nation of islam" of perennial RACIST Louis FARRAKHAN Cunt. You know this big piece of garbage that keeps lying about jews and claiming they're satan on earth while HE and Islamic Terrorists are. The TEN Commandments were given to THE HEBREWS aka JEWS NOW. So don't name something your idol Farrakhan is blaspheming on every single second of his miserable life . You and Farrakhan will burn in hell for your sins against the earth trust me
@MisterBigJones You keep digging a bigger hole for yourself with your lies and false inferences. Just because someone posts a few videos of Farrakhan doesn't make him "my idol." I'm a lawyer, and he is a good orator. That is my interest in him. Look at the video descriptions. I was asked to post some videos of him since I had them in my library & others did not. You should think before you type. You have no logic and are not worth talking to, as a result.
@DexterHaven49 You keep digging your hole for being a total asshole, jerk and racist. You had the guts to come on a Jimmy Connors video to insult and mock an ICON of this sport , respected and admired by millions around the world since decades like me and you got owned by myself. Farrakhan is one of the biggest pieces of shit to have ever seen birth on this planet and he is not worth my toilet bin. A giant racist and fraud. Mr Big Jones 3 16 says i ve whipped your racist ass to DEATH CUNT
@MisterBigJones Thank you for proving my point by showing everyone your complete lack of manners and logic and your delusional ego, which seems unconnected to any real accomplishment in sports or in logic.
@DexterHaven49 Wow Mr Ultimate Racist Jerk with no life who admires a giant piece of garbage known as LOUIS FarraCrapian has NO LIFE as well. FIVE LITTLE MINUTES before making the lamest come back in history of lame come backs. Thank you for proving MINE Loser of life. I came I saw I conquered and you ended up crying loudly racist fag.
Thanks for wasting my 10 minutes Bill. This was probably an amazing match all the way through but the fact this is in italian and it's only a one-sided tie-break kinda killed the buzz the article gave it.
Un torneo incredibile a 39 anni! Mi ricordo che fece delle rimonte straordinarie fin dal primo turno contro il fratello di McEnroe (due set e due break sotto se ricordo bene...)! Che epoca di grandi giocatori...
only one person was a krickstein fan

@DexterHaven49 ROFLMAO ! Go fuck yourself nutcase ! You take your laughable and ultra dumb menaces and you put them straight into your ugly asshole.
If stupidity would kill you would be dead since your birth jackass.
Agassi is a CHEATER and a JUICER and Connors is one billion times the player he will never ever be.
Connors >>>> Agassi
Real Player >>> Cheater
