Not just one of the greatest of all time. He is the G.O.A.T. This is indisputable.

Considering that he stoped after winning 11 GS at the age of 27, and he had potential to Windows at least 2 GS a year for the next 8 years (the present age of Nole), undoubtedly he is the GOAT.

Master of the serve and volley game?? Sounds ike Edberg or McEnroe

If there was one thing Borg was NOT, it was a serve and volleyer.

@@michelez715 Even when he beat Nastase in 76 he was serve volleying that year on grass. Ok he didn't all the time but he was. Each year at Wimbledon he played more and more serve volley. By the time he played Mac in 80 he was out and out serve volley. He knew while he was at the net Mac was not. Just because he wasn't a natural at the net that does not mean he didn't do it. Do your research. He adapted to grass brilliantly. As far as I recall he never played Queens and hired a grass court for two weeks, usually after he won the French.

His rivalry with Jimmy Connors was my favorite.

Nice video but full of errors. I’m not even a journalist but as a Tennis fan I spotted several. Borg beat Tanner in 79 five sets. Borg did play in 82,83,84 but only in one tournament he got passed the first round . Monte Carlo QF in 82. Borg played several exhibition tournaments. If he skipped them and played ATP events he might have still been a top 5 player but he was on the decline he lost motivation. He was still better than Connors, Lendl, Vilas in 81 but chose to quit. Very sad he was my favourite player of all time . With right team around him I think he could’ve won more slams than Sampras but not the big 3

Ok thanks. Sorry for any errors

Not really true, passed first round in Monte Carlo 1982, lost to Noah in QF 1-6, 2-6. Also, he lost to Leconte 6-4, 5-7, 6-7 in Monte Carlo 1983, R32. In 1984 Lost to Leconte 3-6, 1-6 in Stuttgart R32. After that game, as far as I know, he didn`t play any competitive matches until 1991. So, atleast in my book, his career ended 1981. Whatever anyone else says, thank you and good evening.

you forgot Connors and McEnroe.........and the US Open

@garethfernandes6162 9 ай бұрын

I think it’s was a Combination of burnout wanting to party and enjoy himself and also he found out that other players had got better and his dominant was coming to an end

Didn’t even bother with the Australian Open; if he did, then add another 4-5 titles to his GS record.

Semplicemente il più grande. Capace come nessuno di rompere gli schemi, peraltro con il garbo e con la gentilezza, e di diventare il simbolo iconico di un'epoca più libera e interessante.

Pretty sure the $1 million in prize money was claimed by Rod Laver in 1970.

Error, McEnroe perdió con Borg la final de Wimbledon 1980, en el video dicen que fue en 1979.

@castelodeossos3947 Ай бұрын

Sign of the times: no mention of McEnroe's bad manners. And that was the last time men in sport were allowed the comfort of wearing shorts that were short.

It was 1980 not 1981 they played the classic match

He was the best player Rodger federa next nadal third so far in my 60 years of watching tennis they were gentle men also ladies Chris evert steffie graff first lots of good ladies players but those two were best but those two knew how to play tennis and stay cool and lady like 🎉🎉🎉

His inability to win the US Open had something to do with his retirement, I believe. The end of his Wimbledon era in 1981 hastened his decline and retirement. Nevertheless, his legacy is secure. He used to skip the Australian Open because he wanted to win the Grand Slam.

Nada nuevo. Repite la misma información todo el video. 1 minuto le habría sobrado!

@michelez715 9 ай бұрын

He was not a master of serve and volley. His serving improved a lot, but he was never comfortable volleying. You have made so many errors in this video, did you check any references? The classic Wimbledon final was the 5 setter in 1980 which Borg won, and there were no final set tie breaks in those days, so you have totally muddled your facts. It was the FOURTH set which was a tiebreak won by Mac. The 1981 final was no classic, McEnroe won in 4. Laver was the first to crack the $1 million earnings, long before Borg. Tennis videos are mostly watched by tennis fans, who watched the matches in question, and usually have all the stats at their fingertips, so you need to get a lot more accurate.

Lousy video with glaring factual errors

Borg was great. But mental toughness? Not at all. He outlasted weaker players. As soon as he met his match with McEnroe he collapsed mentally and had to retire. Compare this with Federer who managed to eventually figure out Nadal. And continued to play against a much younger Djokovic fearlessly. Borg was great. But McEnroe was just as great, and mentally tougher. Borg was physically impressive. But mentally? Naaaa..... only against worse players. That's not a true measure of mental toughness at all. He had no real peer until McEnroe and completely folded. I love Borg. But this video is nonsense. He can't be called the best of his era but equal to McEnroe.

Borg can not play

@bongd244 Жыл бұрын

The level of games during Bjorn Borg times was below the level of tennis players nowadays. Can not compare it to Novak, Federer, Nadal, carlos to name a few..

@perjordeus9265 Жыл бұрын

I think that Nadal, Federer, and Novak's game would look quite different with wooden racquets and the tennisballs that were in those days. Thier level wouldn't be that different

It's just progression , look at football players , with the exception of Brazil who were always brilliant many players now play like they do . Tennis in the 70's it was Borg ❤
