Love listening to Tony Trabert and Pat S., who could announce golf, tennis and football equally well. They knew when to let the action speak for itself. Unlike today, yack, yack yack.

McEnroe's serve was magic during that time period. He could do so many things with it. And his volleys were magic as well! Borg was the most clean hitter ever, always with such amazing strikes on the ball. Only Connors could match Borg's pure ground strokes, as far as clean hits again and again and again. Seemingly never-ending.

Those wooden racquets are insane.

For some reason, despite the 1980 Wimbledon victory over Johnny Mac, I don't think Borg played his best tennis against McEnroe. He generally had a difficult time returning his serve.

Terrible line call at 21:42 3-3 love love turned the match in Mac's favor.

McEnroe's visible petulance virtually each and every time he lost a point was so tedious.

Borgs first serve percentage was abysmal, he should have played his own game,, he didn't look as if he believed he could win.

He has said that he knew this was the end of the road. His heart was not in it and he felt like he was living in a fishbowl. Need to watch this again as I have not seen the fifth set again in years. He was my guy and was sad when he lost and then retired- so I am definitely not a troll.

Borg master on clay and grass, hardcourts never figured out

Terrible and historical umpire error at 3 all in 5th set
