this was the 1989 Paris Open semi-final between Stefan Edberg and Aaron Krickstein, played on carpet. Edberg won 6-4, 4-6, 6-2, but lost to Boris Becker in the final.
Just to update - I had to scroll though 330 comments to find this out - this was the 1989 Paris Open semi-final between Stefan Edberg and Aaron Krickstein, played on carpet. Edberg won 6-4, 4-6, 6-2, but lost to Boris Becker in the final.

Stupid video description. Don't comment on the title like an idiot. Say the date of the match, the name of the event, and the names of players. You tag words are non sequiturs for the video content too. So many braindead fools like you put up videos on YouTube! Think, dummy!
I miss these days of tennis when it was mostly about touch and before the extreme amount of topspin and power the players hit nowadays due mostly to the strings.
I like how when all the people in the crowd thinks its over they start making noise then everyone starts going like SSSHHHHH when they realize it isnt over
@receipt22 - I guess it's because of the angle of the camera ... I remember when I was younger, tennis courts really seemed wider in some specific tournaments
@lionhunter43 Oh for sure, they were both great inspirations to him - I just picked Edberg as his biggest, although I knew Becker was a huge one, and perhaps before. It's just a couple of weeks ago Federer practiced with Edberg so there was a big talk about him being his big influence at the time. :)
I LOVED his play - so "lyrical" almost.... spectacular! Nobody plays with the grace of Stefan Edberg anymore. The consummate gentleman. And handsome as heck too!!!
And yes he could crush the modern female players. He is after all, a MAN. A very fit man with upper arm strength that those women however great, cannot match. That's why men and women don't play against each other competitively. duh.
Edberg won this point simply because he read his opponent so well.Had he rushed to the wrong side, he wouldn't have made 90% percent of these return shots(smashes being obvious examples).Just amazing stuff.
there's no net players like Edberg these days because with new technological racket, it's more easy to play passing shot. And simply hardly anyone like to dive when volleying balls out of their normal reach.
krickstein and edberg had played just 2 weeks earlier in tokyo and krickstein won that and then won the final against carl uwe steeb 6-2,6-2 then 2 weeks later they meet in the semifinals again here in the paris indoors but this time edberg gets revenge,edberg lost in the final though to becker.
I don't know if it's the camera, but the court seems wider rather than longer.... And I can't see the ball half the time they're hitting it and that was an amazing point......
Aaron Krickstein had an awesome forehand and reached no 6 in the world from memory. He always seemed to be dealing with injuries, although he did manage 2 grand slam singles semi finals.
the only reason edberg came in was cause of the drop shot,which i caqnt blame krickstein for hitting since he was slamming the ball and edberg was still getting it back.
dodododa, you obviously are quite clueless about tennis... this is edberg and krickstein running these balls down on (what looks to be) a pretty fast indoor court... they not only would crush a 'modern female player' then they would do the same right now at nearly 40 years old each... look up karsten braasch... he's (at the time) a chain smoking tennis player ranked 200+ in the world, he played 18 holes of golf and downed a 12 pack of beer before dismantling serena and venus with ease...
Wow, quiet 1234 isn't so quiet anymore. I'd bet I can see the person who raised this kid at peopleofwalmart.
Even the Williams' hitting partners can beat them w/ ease.
"Against anyone in top 500, no chance, because I was playing like 600 today." "I took at least 50 per cent off my serve," "I came out with a few hard ones, but not too much because then it's not fun anymore and it was supposed to be fun." -Braasch
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
while edberg i agree with. your a fucking idiot talkin about braasch, Serena and venus were fucking teenagers you MORON, they got dismantled On the womans tour, serena was like 16 venus 17 dumbshit. Oh and 03 hopman cup "serena would always take a set off me in practice especially if i wasnt 100% focused"--- James Blake. Go eat a dick you moron
@mfreemanflynn interesting, it just shows how much better than mens game is. BTW do you know what type of court it is or when this match was? the court makes a weird sound.
