  • @zb9775 donald young?

  • This is true about Connors. The world watched him win in devasting style Wimbledon and US US Open in 74 and thought this man will dominate for along time. Then Ashe came along and then Borg. But Jimbo hung in there and finally won again in 82. Fair play to him. Tanking to him would be heresy!!!!!!

  • I saw the entire 3rd and 4th sets on Tennis channel last night. It was totally great and I'd love to see it again. It was just as Czerniakowska wrote below.

  • Nobody seems to have more of this match :(

  • Would love to see more of this match. Please post if anyone has it.

    Prior to this match, Connors was considered invincible. Then he lost to Ashe and other players realized that he could be beaten with the right strategy

  • JONANTHAN 2,

    in that case you have not heard abount the Arthur Ashe Stadium name after him...

    undoubtely he's one of the most gifted American tennis player...other than Mcenroe...he was the former US Davis Cup Captain.

  • dear jonathan2,

    that shows that you are not a real tennis fans or either to be ignorant. to add few more black players-Malivai Washinton, Scotville Jenskin & that NCCC 09 champion..trying to recall his name..Donald_____??????

  • Ashe's triumph was one of strategy. Connors, who had problems adjusting to the unexpected, had anticipated being able to brutalise and overwhelm his opponent. Ashe responded by taking the pace off the ball at every opportunity, thereby extracting the sting from Connors's game and reducing him to a frustrated and angry shadow of his normal self. Although McEnroe was depicted as the bad boy of tennis, Connors was held in much lower personal regard by officials. With him, it was always personal.

  • monfils is relatively young though he has a long way ahead of him i expect him to get into the top 5

  • We can't take over everything, lol

    THAT WAS A JOKE!!!!!
