Willie defends Wimbledon title, retains #1, 2 YE #1, 77 weeks at #1 1883- Willie vacates Irish title, Ernie wins it. Lawford won London Athletic Club and Prince's Club, Wilberforce wins Manchester. Ernie Renshaw had to play Lawford first round which is a joke but Ernie won it in 5. Horrible seeding. After that match, Ernie marches to the finals where once again he loses to William Renshaw, 5 sets again. Ernie may be the best of the rest, but Willie is still the best. 53 weeks at #1 due to there being 53 Monday's in 1883. 130 weeks at #1, 3 YE #1 1884- Lawford, who invented the topspin forehand by the way, beat the US champ Sears at the Irish and Ernie in the finals, both in straights. Lawford wins London Athletic Club as well, and looks poised to challenge Willie Renshaw for the Wimbledon title and #1 crown. Lawford had to play Wilberforce first round so this is 2 years in a row they give Lawford a top contender first round, do they have beef with him? Lawford wins in straights, Ernie loses SF, and Lawford plays Willie in the finals. But Renshaw holds firm and takes his title once more, in straights and with a bagel in the first, wow.
