- Three time Grand Slam singles title winner ARTHUR ASHE on LATER WITH BOB COSTAS on December 17th, 1990. This was the first of a two episode interview.
Ashe was the first black player selected to the United States Davis Cup team and the only black man ever to win the singles title at Wimbledon, the US Open, and the Australian Open. He retired in 1980. In the early 1980s, Ashe is believed to have contracted HIV from a blood transfusion he received during heart bypass surgery. Ashe publicly announced his illness in April 1992 and began working to educate others about HIV and AIDS. He founded the Arthur Ashe Foundation for the Defeat of AIDS and the Arthur Ashe Institute for Urban Health before his death from AIDS-related pneumonia at age 49 on February 6, 1993. #athurashe #tennis #hiv #aids #bobcostas #interview

What a well-spoken man he was.
God bless his soul.
I am totally and thoroughly shocked that this video has only 2,006 views!
I would watch tennis with my father when I was a teenager. I played too but was not so great. I remember the 1975 Wimbledon. The final came and everyone in my school supported Jimmy Connors. I supported Arthur. I was so excited when he won the opening game. My Dad said..it is the last game that matters. I still remember that. Arthur is a legend for me.
What an erudite, interesting man he was, in addition to being a fantastic tennis player. If there were more people like Arthur Ashe the world would be a much better place.
Amazing man. I wish I had dialed into him sooner
Surprised, we see so little of him on TV today. A groundbreaking man.
The man who break the barriers for tennis hasn't gotten as much respect as he should have.
I remember watching him play in a tournament in Cleveland when I was young. My grandmother took me. She said it was a privilege to see him play in person.
Great show, Bob.
This was a good man god best him May he rip
GOAT... By all standards.
He settled his beefs with his fists and his mind. Amazing intellect. His physical down of Bill Cosby and former un ambassador Andrew young is so legendary. He hit like a young sugar ray robinson. Andrew young once said angrily after a beat down.that Arthur Ashe was so sweet he give me diabetes
Another great interview by Costas.
I actually study interviewers, and I have been extremely impressed with this show Bob did. His non-sports interviews were superb. His interview with Paul McCartney was the best interview I've ever seen with McCartney. He thoroughly researched his subjects. But not only that, he was able to build up the perfect understanding of their context --- he nailed it every time.
@@HomeAtLast501 Many years ago when I would see Costas on TV I was rather dismissive, probably because back then he was doing all sports.
But since becoming a RUclips junkie a couple years ago I've really come to appreciate his skills as an interviewer.
At the same time I have leveled some harsh criticism at other interviewers who I thought weren't up to the task.
As far as sports figures go, I think the interview Costas did with Mickey Mantle was superlative.
And when it comes to a former Beatle, it's kind of ironic that my favorite John Lennon interview of all time was when in 1974 he appeared on Howard Cosell's radio show called "And Speaking of Everything."
They discussed the legal challenges Lennon was facing to stay in the country (Cosell was a lawyer), and it was interesting as hell.
It was obvious that they liked and respected each other, and Lennon never sounded so clear-minded and articulate.
And as everyone knows, six years later it was Cosell who interrupted his Monday Night Football duties to announce that Lennon had been shot.
Lennon also in 1974 made a guest appearance with Cosell in the announcer's booth during a Monday night game, in which he gave his impression of seeing an American football game in person for the first (and I assume last) time.
He seemed really pleased to be there.
Having this interview interrupted by a home security system commercial featuring Snoop Dogg is about as insulting as it gets.
RUclips does that
For shizzle 😂
@@ClevelandLiveMusicArthur Ashe lied about his personal illness. He knew he had aids and lied about it to Bobby costas
Big gang ok luv
Ashe had a terrific temper. Arthur Ashe once spit on Ed Koch when Koch closed a Harlem hospital. Also Arthur Ashe once punched Lillian Carter in the stomach when she cut in front of Arthur and his family during a White House state dinner honouring Zimbabwe’s independence.
Can't see Arthur Ashe, a man of tremendous integrity, doing any of hose things!
@@theoriginalthinker9199 he was a complex man. You don’t know his dark side. Bud Collins a tennis reporter said Arthur Ashe shoving and putting his hands on Lillian Carter the presidents mother was one of the most vile acts he ever saw
@@opticscolossalandepicvideo4879 I've read two of Ashe's books, am a big follower of his career. I stand by what I said. Unless you can provide proof, it's BS.
@@theoriginalthinker9199 read bud Collins. He tells of the White House shove of miss Lilian. Dude was very fiery. Borderline criminal. Collins said arthur had a lot of pent up anger.
@@theoriginalthinker9199 you need to run bud Collins book and Hamilton Jordan’s memoirs.
Such poignant and measured responses.
He wasn’t in Jimmy connors league. I don’t like Arthur’s demeaning comments about Jimmy.
2:06 funny how, "some of my best friends are..." was amusable even back in 68.
Overrated champ...great human being
All fake. Evil
