It's like Lendl is the tough but admired dad, Wilander is the oldest, sensible brother, and Becker and McEnroe are the two naughty kids - and it was pretty much like that in the 1980s.

These guys ABSOLUTELY need to do more of this.

This is pure gold,when i see them i time travel 30yrs back in my mind. Lendl was the most consistent,Mc Enroe the most elegant,Becker the most powerful and Wilander the smartest/tactical are my opinon of these quartet. Bless them all because they made tennis back then exiting 🙂.

The dynamic between Lendl and McEnroe is great. Total respect for each other.

McEnroe: "Do you remember that match we played one time in the juniors?" Lendl: "6-2 7-6."

If you ever saw Ivan do a post match interview - he remembered every damn point during the entire match. Incredible - even in this round table he remembers who he played in the quarters, semis, and finals of some podunk tournament 35 years ago. Unreal.

Lendl's sense of humor is fantastic!

There's more passion in any of these 4 guys than in the entire current ATP players. Period

I love the fact that Ivan and John are polar opposites and still love trying to outdo each other but that deep down (not even that deep anymore) they really respect each other and even start to like each other a bit.

Pure delight. They ultra dominated their sport 35+ years ago, and they haven't conceded an inch of their fierce competitiveness, even though they enjoy joking about it. They can recall every point and detail, every loss or victory at will, and any opinion they formulate about the game today (see part 1) is insightful and potent. You can feel how fast and sharp their minds are, no wonder they lived on a higher plane. Ivan's authority, Mac's exuberance, Boris' straightforwardness, and Mats' subtelty, are gems to behold, so akin to the style they displayed on court back in the days. A great, great moment for those of us who admired those guys when we were kids...

I saw McEnroe play twice. Most people don't realise how quick he was to the net. He was like lightening. Then he smothered the net. His volleys were incredible and he had the best hands you ever saw. Also, his slice lefty slice serve to the advantage court was occasionally unreturnable.

I just love these 4 guys - they added to the rich tapestry of life as a teenager growing up in the best decade ever, the 80s!

Lendl totally killing it. Like a boss.

30 years after they retired and they are still fighting each other never give up. What a spirit :-)

Mac: (to Lendl) How did you do at Wimbledon that year? Lendl: I lost in the semi's to Stefan. That's the year i beat you at Queens, both of you. Mac: Why did i ask...

Listening to these guys is more fun than watching a match with current players.

BRILLIANT- Lendl steals the show yet again !! Hahaha

Such a great interview. Have you ever seen McEnroe and Lendl so relaxed like here. Polite Mats Wilander most underrated here.

These conversations are about so much more than tennis for me. Every time they mention a year, I have memories, usually good ones, that I associate with. These days, life is a blur and far less enjoyable.

These 4 guys (and Edberg missing) in the 80s carried on the legacy of Borg and they made tennis GLOBAL. Borg was probably the first player to be truly recognised in every corner of the world, even by people who were not into tennis, just like a movie or a pop star. Then this bunch came along ( like heirs ) to finish off the conquest of the world; they became household names, including in those without any tennis rackets. Of course TV broadcasting played a big part, but so did their own ability (great players) and charisma (great champions).

Very entertaining and Boris's frustration not being able to get a word in and finally his comment at 11:30 is priceless. John is always interesting to listen to and I respect/enjoy him a lot more now than 30 years ago.

This is extraordinary exceptional-----Lendl and McEnroe seem like buddies now!

So amazing - Ivan remembers every single result, even from the Juniors time

Ivan is sharp as a tack. Remembering those scores from 35 years ago. Great stuff. i could listen to these guys talk for hours. I wish Boris and John would bring up Stratton Mountain Vermont. John got robbed on a call on match point. Becker came back and won.

Im literally crying watching the heroes of my youth. Only Edberg is missing. It was such a wonderful time back then. I love all of them, especially Ivan now.

These guys are incredible. They should tour together like the Stones.

This was simply amazing. They all had their moments. 30 plus yrs later and they remember everything. Tennis needs these 4/5 legends to get together once a year til John gets too surly old. Please whom ever works at the atp listen up. After the golden age is officially over we need this type of banter

This is an absolute treasure. I hope they do this again.

Ladies and Gentlemen....The REAL FAB FOUR of Tennis.

Ivan is so smart and analytic. It means so much!

New respect for Lendl...man, that guys brain for remembering scores is amazing.

These Legends videocasts are great! The "Mount Rushmore" of 80s tennis...love to hear these stories and in an unfiltered manner. They should do more of these.

Best quartet of the 80’s. Just missing Stefan Edberg.

My favorite!! IVAN!!!

Learn some patience John, it helps you...😂

This type of tennis round table should happen more often. I'd love to see some more, with guys like Connors, Borg, Edberg and others. Would be a lot of fun to hear everyone's stories. I can say this much...its no wonder that Ivan has been such a great coach for Andy Murray. Listening to Ivan, you can just tell how incredible his IQ is for the sport....and probably beyond tennis, I'm sure.

Fantastic! Superb honesty and laughs! It's great to see that Lendl is so different to how he played.

Lendl is hilarious. Should do more of these.

i could watch these guys banter for hours. four true legends of the sport with so much personal history with each other. brilliant stuff.

Three of these guys are speaking in their second language, and are so insightful and witty. It's fantastic. Boris is swearing. McEnroe is McEnroe . Great chatterboxes.

what a pleasure to listen to! what strikes me about these great champions is: a. they still hold grudges about their losses! b. they have amazing recall for details about matches that happened 30 years ago! c. they were real personalities who love the sport d. each would be a blast to have a beer with.

Being with these guys is just like being in heaven for a moment 😇

This was more enjoyable than many of the current US Open matches.

"You're talking from both sides of your mouth." Amazing. Ivan is amazing. 17:34

The Racket Pack to be seen in Vegas soon.Fantastic guys having a good time together. Priceless.

They need to do more of these. So interesting. So sorry about Boris legal troubles, I always found him to be a great speaker and very clever in the way he breaks down tennis.

This is great. Lendl's hilarious!

Wilander looks exactly like in the 80s.

HEROES of my youth , without them, I would not have started with tennis here in Germany in 1985, I still prefer watching old matches from the 80s,90s much more than todays matches

This is so beautiful! They once were rivals against each other , now they all get together to recall of their games which are phenomenal!❤❤❤❤

These guys have tremendous memories. No signs of early onset here. This was better than any recent match I've watched. Mats is so humble, but he has one more slam than Boris, the same as John, and just one less than Ivan. He also has more weeks at number 1 than Boris. We need to see way more of this kind of dialog. I love it.

I was always a McEnroe and never liked Lendl as a kid. But I like Ivan a lot after this. I never knew he liked to trash talk so much.

I’d listen to them all day,Gold

I'm loving this! These guys were important to me in my younger tennis days. Good to see them now.

love that, this is so great, they should do that more often...mcenroe was, by far the most talented, but I loved Lendl who was so elegant & powerful

Great conversation by all 4 of these Champions. Amazing how each can recall matches from 35 years ago like it just happened yesterday.

I've always loved tennis these were my era,I was 10nin 88 and watching this has amazed Me this is why Andy Murray got to be a champ due to Ivan lendl his wit is so dry love this 4 legends as it says brilliant.

Gold interwiew of all greatest legends in one interview, all greatest of all time

So many great memories. I was a tennis fanatic back then and these guys were kings. Loved watching them reminisce as friends, Primo banter

I never imagined that Lendl And John could be tight friends one day... So It seems to me that It's happening... Interesting The untold anecdote about John having a ride from lendl from luxemburg to antwerp in The mid 80's...the hate and the grudge context between The two was staged then or massively pumped up by The press? The story about The cough situation between Boris and John is hilarious as well...I would listen To them for hours...More podcasts please

Becker and Wilander are giggling fanboys whenever Lendl speaks. It’s obvious they respect him immensely and deep down idolize him.

I love this. I've watched it several times. Lots of laughs and great memories. Thank you!

It is absolutely incredible that Lendl, McEnroe and - even though he was not in this roundtable discussion at the 2019 U.S. Open - Agassi remember the exact scores in their exhibition matches from many years ago! It is one thing to remember the scores of matches that actually counted, but to remember the scores from meaningless exhibition matches? Amazing!

Lendl’s memory is incredible. I ran into him recently and we talked for quite a bit. I brought up a little tournament he played in and a certain match. He remembered so many details of it. Incredible

Fascinating forum between four Legends. The combined grand slams won between these players was 28. The biggest surprise of this very entertaining conversation was Lendl being so chatty. And funny !

Do more of these pls. I’m 50 now and you guys are still my heroes!!!

freaking legends!!! the 4 of them! great vid!! thanks for sharing

We need Stefan Edberg with these guys . Then you’d have the biggest champions of the 80s and early 90s

They should also get Stefan Edberg and Jimmy Connors to join them.

Mac: The only tournaments I won as a junior were on clay....I was more of a pusher then. Ivan & Mats reaction: in unison....ahhh here we go.....clay courters are pushers lol

I just got chills just seeing them all together.

More!! Loved this interview and wanted it to meep going. Love it when they share their battle stories after so many years.

incredible stuff for a guy watching in his 50's who started in 1986 (me). Mac has continued to do so much for tennis... love these guys!! awesome!

I could listen to these guys all day! Thank you for sharing

You can really tell how much these guys, especially Mac and Ivan, loved playing tennis. They can remember every match.

Ivan always was my fav. This talk is so a pleasure to watch. Brings me back so many good memories. Besides, Mats ages really well

Love these Tennis legends My favourites of all times love . there sence of humour with this .

These cats are a tennis Treasure. I would love a Q & A with today’s 20 to 23 year old stars.

WOW, time flies. They all looked different (particularly Lendl) but look and sound great!!!!! I loved tennis growing-up; perhaps the best thing for me in my life. My favorite was Evonne Goolagong. Would LOVE to see this with Evonne, Chris, Martina and Billie Jean. Time is running out....thanks for great memories...

Their memories going back 30+ years , knowing what round, who they played and the score.. amazing.

It is not only Lendl in this excellent roundtable discussion about pro tennis who demonstrates an excellent memory for the scores of his matches from years earlier - McEnroe and Wilander also remembered the scores from matches early in their respective careers! Agassi in interviews has shown an incredible memory for scores from his matches in his career!

That was gold. I would love to see the sparks if Jimmy Connors joined in - platinum!

Love this. All of these guys were my idols as a kid.

Lendl needs to talk about his crazy dedication (and money) having a hard court poured by the US open concrete contractors, and a grass court installed by the Wimbledon grounds contractors, at his home!

Will never forget how dominant Ivan was indoors on the hard courts during his prime. Power and precision. He used to blow people away.

Awesome couple of vids from these legends. Mats and Mac were my fav players even tho they were totally different. To see them all having a laugh and memories and their unique insight is great, I want more. I've played state level tennis in Australia and heading towards 50. My friends I've had for years, whether they were opponents or partners catch up and do what this vid is like, lots of shit stirring and who beat who etc. Tennis is such a great sport. Cheers

Love the honesty about their competitiveness and strategy. Nowadays the pres conferences are becoming a popularity contest.

Ivan is truly hilarious. This is great to see these former champions discuss their careers and anecdotes from their playing days.

Yesterday rivals, and now gentlemen that laugh and share great moments together. A pleasure to watch them together Wilander, McEnroe, Lendl, Borg, chatting and remembering those unforgettable battles in the court.

Absolutely love this! Amazing insight, rivalry, friendship and respect from 4 legends.

poor boris. Let him speak.

Love this segment. They should always keep it going and bring in more past greats.

Increíble ver estos 4 campeones de todos los tiempos Incredible see this 4 greatest champions

love you all and thanks for the great matches

Great fun and amazing how much they remember all the way to the juniors or exhibition matches.

Thank you guys...so much knowledge and passion for the game...love you all

Fantastic to hear these great champions , brings back fantastic memories

I would love to see Connors, Borg, and McEnroe doing this, but it will never happen.

You are all more fun than anyone or anything I know, including bubble wrap. Nostalgia is the warm, fuzzy that I feel when I think about fond memories from my past watching you all and even watching you in Lausanne in the early 90’s. RESPECT!🙏

Best 35 minutes I’ve ever spent on you tube.. would have loved to have had EDberg there
