10 minutes of highlights and you include a lot of missed serves.

240p ???

I have this match on VHS. Seen it many times and I love that so much of it is shown from court level.

Nice shadow to have to deal with…

This is before Vilas built his body up

The hits are coming Classic match ty very much

When the second point of the match is a 59 stroke rally, you know we are in for the long haul.

Lendl really had Agassi's number, helped in this match by the fact that Agassi appeared not to have any game plan other than to try and hit winners. That was never going to work against Lendl and once Lendl found his range, there was only going to be one winner.

Lendll was just a better version of Arias in all facets

Wilander once said on the regular tour he was 8-0 against Connors. We're not talking about exhibitions. The explanation for that is clear. By the time Mats came into his own Connors was a little past his prime. A younger version of Connors would have fared much better against Wilander.

Very nice speech from Henri Leconte at the end of the match. And he's had kind words too towards Jimmy Connors as he described him as a gentleman. Well, that is not what I would say about Jimmy who did not have a single word in his speech for Henri. Jimmy has always been tough and rough on a tennis court. Not the kind of personn I would say fair. Noah can tell you much about him. He did not appreciate him...

“Videotaped earlier”

You mean Billie Jean King can’t take credit for THIS?

Victor Pecci, what a stylish player

Cash suffered from Becker and Edberg, because they played the same game as him but a little better, at a higher speed, with greater control of the forehand and backhand... Instead, he won with Lendl, who played a game opposite to him

Scanlon played nowhere near the level he did vs. Mac. But Connors a totally different animal. Just killed him on the return

Who was that gorgeous woman that Lendl kissed at the end??

Each point can last 2 to 3 minutes on these slow courts.

THE BUCHAREST BACKFIRE!!¡

Tommy Paul plays like Scanlon. Reminds me of Scanlon.

Arthur doesn't play too well outdoors because of the wind, and he certainly doesn't play well on clay, and he was past his prime at this point, whereas, Vilas was in the midst of his, having won the French a year ago. Vilas had all the advantages.

In 1984 connors arrived at s.finals playng good Vs enroe , with the racquet wilson pro staff , and here in 1985 , what he do ??? He retourne to play with wilson t 2000 ??????? Simply crazy 😱😱

Who are the commentators??

Víctor pecci hizo historia en el tenis

ich war da!

Mecirは大好きなプレーヤー 背筋が弱点でサーブが弱かったのが残念。

Connors was wrong to include these matches in his h2h with borg. Borg was a better tennis player.

Certes McEnroe avait très bien joué, mais apparemment tout le monde a oublié que Connors s'était blessé en 1/2 finale contre Lendl et avait failli déclarer forfait pour cette finale face à McEnroe, et qu'il n'avait accepté de la jouer quand même uniquement parce que les gens avaient payer pour voir ce match ! Et en effet on voit bien que Connors ne se faisait aucune illusion et ne jouait pas du tout son jeu avec la même hargne. Il paraissait mou et très hésitant, essayant de limiter le plus possible les longs échanges de fond de cour en montant au filet à des moments inopportuns, se faisant facilement passer par McEnroe qui, lui, était en super forme ! Ce qui explique ce résultat expéditif ! La preuve que Connors était handicapé par cette blessure c'est qu'il avait failli battre ce même McEnroe 2 mois plus tard en 1/2 finale de l'US Open alors que ce dernier jouait toujours à son meilleur niveau et que Connors avait guéri de sa blessure ! 😉 Ce n'est pas diminuer McEnroe mais simplement remettre les choses dans le bon contexte 🙂

Gracias por subir este clásico

Nunca pensé que que vería otra vez estos, monstruos del tenis, dos campeones legendarios

You can tell by Borg's hairstyle that this is 1974, not 1975.

Vilas was the best dressed guy in tennis!

I wonder how Connors must have felt, the ultimate competitor being prevented from competing.

Casi casi hace el milagro, se paró mano a mano con jimbo, realmente jugó muy bien acuña, pero, jimbo era jimbo, que gran orgullo ricardo, viva chile mierda !!!

Hasta el año 85, hans jugó con madera, increíble pero cierto, su última raqueta de madera fue la dunlop maxply mcenroe, con ella le ganó a edberg en copa davis jugada en santiago ese mismo año, yo tuve esa raqueta, era una joya de madera con fibra de vidrio

Connors must of thought he was playing Ken Rosewall impersonating an Indian man!

Gracias por subir esos clásicos del juego

Mcenroe tried everything and lost!

Music by Lalo Schifrin?? So 70s

Ce petit match culte improbable.

Fantastici anni 80

Never knew this took place

Vilas... the best dressed Player ever! (+ a great personality)

Courier was just a bad matchup for Jimmy, he would have beaten Edberg no doubt in the final but Courier’s power was just too much for Jimmy at his age

Gerulaitis the Junkie!

Mats is thinking "what shot makes him(Mecir) uncomfartable and the answer is "nothing that you try). Wilander's game was very ill suited against Mecir. But then again, Mats's tennis brain and stamina was ill suited to most players back then. Thanks for uploading!

Excellent match! Love Jimmy Connors and always remembered the Big Serving Steve Denton!

Happy to see my favourite two great players ❤

Diversi e spettacolari.
