@@DavidJohnson-yq4nz It wasn't the standing ovation that they had an issue with. Most players got them. It was more they both always felt that Graph didn't do enough work as the top dominate player to advance the sport the way both Chris and Martina (and certainly BJK ). It was a change in generation where she was taking getting the money and success that the previous generation worked so hard to create and didn't seem grateful.

@@johniii8147Steffi's personality made it hard for her to come out of her shell. Her dad Peter Graf also taught her not to get close to other players for fear it would take away her competitiveness. All these factors kept Steffi from giving more back to the game that made her so rich. Needless to say Steffi was not close to Chris or Martina

How inspiring to see such a grand bunch of tennis troopers! Some of those playing in the late '30's to '50's just have to be in their mid 80's to mid 90's, at this reunion/presentation event, most of them -- amazingly still looking spry -- our hats off to them all! Terrific to see some of my old favorites again, of 45+ years ago, still looking great in 2000. I don't know how many hours I was glued to the tube watching some of these players, years ago, but it's really nice to see them so many years later! I'm watching this in mid-2022 and some of the early players have gone on to their eternal reward now, but we thank all of the players for entertaining us so well, for so long, bless them all. Thank you for this post, it was wonderful though a bit emotional to see all the players again!

@nmjoliffe2 жыл бұрын
Just saw this terrific array of champions from my and previous and later eras. Seeing those aussie champs from the sixties was really special. I was a ball boy in 1969 at Aust. Open in Brisbane for Laver, Roche, Court, King, Casals, Gonzalez etc. I carried out racquets for Laver and Gonzalez for centre court matches in 1969 - Pancho had 7 racquets all with his name embossed on the covers !! I thought that was the height of stardom !!!! Try carrying 7 racquets as an 11 year old !! I carried Billie Jeans racquets on before a match and after she won she gave me 2 x 20c coins to go and buy us soft drinks and we sat down and chatted in the players area for a time. When Laver played Roche in the semi-final that year it was the longest match in Open history, the players came off after the 3rd set i think to shower and change, the line umpires and ball boys all changed over but i gave my 50c payment to some kid and i took his place to go back out. I knew something special was happening. Laver, Roche, probably the central umpire and me were the only ones to be on the court for the whole match. That's my claim to fame and no-one can take that off me. Laver was the greatest.

The synonym for transcendence is Rafa. Just to be clear that transcendence is not in the category of superlatives. Transcendence is the dissolution of thought that attempts to describe. It is prior to and beyond every description. Rafa is not superhuman. On the contrary, he is fully human - he fully embraces suffering, he fully breathes self-doubt, he fully respects each and every player, each and every human being across the planet, he fully respects every tennis 🎾 racquet if he's not smashed a single one, he fully loves Real Madrid, he fully respects Roger and Novak, he fully loves humanity. Transcendence when lived is humility, humility, humility. Rafa!

We needed Arthur Ashe to be honored, Could they not have at least mentioned him? I know he died but seriously. One of the greatest champions ever.

Leslie Lees... Don't be ridiculous... This event was for the living and able to assist to this ceremony in the year 2000. Many Wimbledon Champions were alive but could not assist, and they were not mentioned either. So many Great Wimbledon Champions died in over 100 years Wimbledon has been played, so why mention some and others not?
