Lendl vs. Mecir

Some points recorded on VHS a while ago. It was Eurocard-Classics Stuttgart Finals 1989 - Lendl won 6:3, 4:6, 4:6, 6:1, 6:4
Ivan Lendl vs. Miloslav "The Cat " Mecir.
Mecir was one of my favorite players, although not as succesful as many others, he played like no other.

It's almost scary how much better this is than today's tennis.
Sad to see, really.

[@Nigelxman]

Incredible stuff. Mecir had the mos exquisite touch on his backhand volley!

[@BLACKTREAT]

j' adorais le voir jouer. peut être mon joueur préféré.

[@stevehughes1510]

He was effortless and precise.

Mecir est une danseuse, tout simplement. On pourrait le regarder pendant des heures !

[@gk891]

One thing about Mecir is that he's very hard to read. No matter where he puts the ball, his groundstrokes look exactly the same. This is especially the case with his backhand.

Thanks, Paco. Wonderful stuff.

Mecir made the points and the unforced errors.

[@brucefake2732]

Mecir did not hit the ball, simply pushed it

[@gardenvarietypenis]

Bruce Fake he would swing through when necessary (return of serve); he played a lot of off-pace stuff and then struck.
