  • Borg...I heard he was real fast..

  • just to remember guys who think Nadal is the best clay court ever , borg played with those rackets , I wanna see Nadal play with Bjorn Borg's racket , I would love to see !

    And much more , Borg is the best clay court ever

  • Borg had won 6 French by age 25, Nadal 5. The stats don't lie Borg is the best clay player ever!

  • Nadal is the King of Clay

  • Nadal wouldn't stand a chance against Borg. Anyone who says Borg couldn't play in this era obviously doesn't know anything about tennis.

  • I would like to see a game between Federer and Nadal with the racquets they used in the 1970's. Then people who weren't around in the 70s will see how different the game is with those racquets. You can't compare Borg to Nadal because of the massive difference in racquets.

    This is not a great example of Borg's stroke play, more an example of his court coverage and how fast he gets to the ball.

  • @hattrickster33 of course

    but it's not only a matter of equipment

    but technical, strength, quickness, etc...

  • @jembozzo Yea but if he had started out in the modern era of tennis with modern equipment he probably wouldn't be that bad

  • @hattrickster33 are you kidding ?

    borg hits the balls like a beginner compares to nadal or any actual

    top 100

  • @jembozzo That doesn't mean if he was at his prime today he wouldn't be better than Nadal. The whole idea is so subjective that you can't really know unless you had away to make Borg 20 again....
