Kalinic beat Waldner in the preliminary round. If you watch Kalinic's match versus Appelgren you will see his movement was excellent for a 2,03m player.His son is a top basketball player so he can't be that bad of an athlete Against Waldner any lefty would appear sloppy, ask Gatien or Yoo Nam Kyu.
This tournament was "4 singles and 1 doubles" system (one player played in 2 singles, the other two players were paired in doubles and each of the two played in 1 singles) . Yugo was traditionally good at doubles. And at that time the best pair in Europe, Lupulesku & Primorac could be paired. So on one hand Yugo had great advantage, but on the other hand, they had to play the specialist of doubles (probably the best in the world), Z. Kalinic only at singles... (Sorry for my poor English
waldner was very angry and responsable in this moment because primorac won him like nobody did for years. i think something like 21-17, 21-10. before this match it was 2-1 for yugoslavia.
what an exciting match! Chilling drama down too the last points. It was an open affair and respect to both players, could have gone either way but only one can win in the end.
it would be nice that you posted also primorac - waldner just one before. it was easy 2-0 for primorac. i remember that being proud. it was amazing world final where persson won lupulescu 2-1, 25-23 i think in third. Lupi and Zoki, especially zoki was crying.
He was a doubles specialist,actually a World Champion in doubles.Placing a lefty against Waldner was never a good idea.Given the fact that his son is a world class basketball player he was probably a decent athlete.

Waldner's serves were killer.

@@ricardoalberro3463 it was 2-1 for Persson.
Am I watching the same match? "Could have gone either way"? Waldner blew Kalinic out of the water, not even close.

Walder at his best!!
may i use this footage in a documentary?
Yes absolut no problem
@@asasannebring4704 thankks
Didn't know there was a rule about hidden serves back then😆😆
European, worldclass, lefty penholder very unusual and there probably wont be anymore. Also I hope Waldner changed barbers after this.
This was an annihilation, quite simply put.
差距不是一般的大呀
grande KALINIC !!!
Never saw that player... Technically very weak. I don't even know how he made it to that level.
