Borg and Pecci (1 of 3)

This is great !!! They recently played again here in Paraguay, because of the 30 years after celebration .. Borg was a Tenis Robot , a machine .. and Pecci was the best Paraguayan Tenis player so far . tks for sharing this

Wonderful video !! I am from Paraguay and really admired Bjorn and of course Pecci!!! And this match was incredible !! Pecci won Vilas, Connors to reach the finals !! Thank you for sharing this video of this wonderful match.

Just curious as to why it is in Black and White? I'm sure it was filmed in color. Does anyone know?

Thanks.

jkygogo, the matched was broadcast in color, but the quality of the recording that I used is very poor; the ball did not show up well against the court until I removed the color myself. That's why it's in black and white: to make the ball easier to see on YouTube.

Thanks for uploading this. I love it. If possible, could you also post it in Color too? Would love to see it in it's true color beauty.

Thanks.  :)

Sorry, but I recorded right off the TV (again to make the ball appear more crisply), and I turned the color off the television set, before recording the highlights that I edited into this clip. So all that exists now is this B&W clip.

You've got clips of some great players. Any reason why their quality is so abysmal?

i've seen much worse. at least you can see the ball. your question is to neibaf is rather dumb...vhs tapes degrade over time. it's not like he could have anticipated the uploading of tennis matches for anyone in the world to view...free of charge, i might add. so they're not pristine, at least they exist and he had the decency to share them.

Wow Peccis slice tactics look like Federers down to a T. I wonder hmm lol.....

Pecci had the game to challenge Borg. Moved well, solid backcourt game, good serve, reliable volley . . . on clay, however, it took a superman to beat Borg.
