John McEnroe v Jimmy Connors 1984 U.S. Open Semi Final Part 5

This is the original Super Saturday at the open. The day started with Ivan Lendl defeating little known Pat Cash in an epic 5 setter, then on to a memorable 3 setter on the womans side as Martina Navratilova bested Chris Evert in a final that she would call her most painful to lose. By the time the semifinal match youre viewing began play between John McEnroe and Jimmy Connors, night fall had set in and no one knew that they were in for another terrific match one that would cement the reputation of Super Saturday at the Open as the toughest and most exciting day in Tennis and John McEnroe as the Man to beat!

@dan1529 Very hard to find commentary, not always professional.

The greatest day in history of tennis, 12 hrs of game, thriller, emotion, entertainment. McEnroe at his best, he lost only one match in such surface that year. At Cincinnati against Vijay Amritraj. Otherwise, only victories and 2 losses on clay.

@dan1529 Pat Summerall is a football commentator thrown into this role. He knows the game, but it's obvious he'd rather be doing football.
