Everything was set up for McEnroe, but Roland Garros had never been overly kind to him and it was about to dish out the deepest blow yet… The American The Greatest Tennis Matches of All Time into an early lead, breaking Lendl in the sixth game before taking the set McEnroe closed off the second set and was two sets up in just over an hour. After a confrontation between McEnroe and the cameraman, the American had lost his concentration and Lendl broke back. It paved the way to the Czech taking the set and the momentum shift was felt all around the court. Lendl then came from down in the fourth to win itwhile also capturing the full support of the French crowd. A topsy-turvy final set saw break points won and lost each way as the tension ebbed and flowed, but it was Lendl who held his nerve the better. After saving one match point, McEnroe could give no more, and he volleyed wide to hand the game to Lendl. The American would sit in his chair, head in hands, for a long time as the presentation began. That runners-up medal would The Greatest Tennis Matches of All Time the best he ever got from the French. But even inat the age of 25, it was considered that Venus was not playing at her peak, having been dumped out of the French Open by young, little-known Bulgarian Sesil Karatantcheva. She had slumped down the rankings and many had written her off as SW19 geared up for another fortnight of action. Williams went about her business tidily in the opening rounds and reached a semi-final matchup with Maria Sharapova, the defending champion, having not lost a set. And she would not crack against the Russian either, brushing her aside And so to American compatriot Lindsay Davenport in the final. You could not find a more physical match for Williams in the sport at the time and this was set to be a real Centre Court tussle. Striking the ball purely and keeping Williams on the backfoot for most of the opening exchanges, Davenport took the first set and remained on top in the second. She was serving for the match at, but the resilience and brilliance of Williams emerged and she turned the second set around to take it in a tie-break. The third set was on a knife edge, with both competitors breaking each other, and then Venus almost throwing away another service game with a double fault. But every time she was down, Williams pulled a wonder shot out of the bag and got the crowd believing she could do it. Such was the back and forth nature of the game, that it took two hours and 46 minutes to separate the pair, with Williams eventually holding it all together and coming through in the final set. Many will remember her pogoing into the air a dozen times in delight after the game. Chris Evert vs Martina Navratilova — French Open final, One of the greatest tennis rivalries of all time, Martina Navratilova and Chris Evert met in the French Open final towards the end of their long- standing sporting battle. Navratilova had won 20 of their previous 23 face-offs, including the last four Grand Slam finals and ending her eight-year unbeaten run at Roland Garros the year before. The year-old Evert appeared in decline. She won the first set and was leadingin the second but still needed to close out Navratilova, which was where she failed at the US Open the year before. Navratilova rallied and reached set point at and the next hour saw each woman take it in turns to build and lead and then lose it. Evert established a lead in the third, only to be levelled at She served for the match again at and was broken. Instead of continuing her relentless style of attack, though, Navratilova tried the drop shot and failed. Evert then held from to make it The latter stages of the game got more exciting by the serve until Evert found herself back at her trusty baseline, with her opponent bearing down on the net, and catapulted a lethal backhand to end her losing streak. Four weeks earlier, the Spaniard destroyed him at Roland Garros, winning, to claim his fourth consecutive French Open title. However, this time the pair would be duelling on grass on Centre Court where The Greatest Tennis Matches of All Time romped to a five-set victory over a year-old Nadal the year before. That match will also go down as The Greatest Tennis Matches of All Time of the most memorable in history. This SW19 rematch The Greatest Tennis Matches of All Time was to be even better. This match was to give spectators nearly five hours of sublime tennis, making it the longest final in Wimbledon history at the time. The stroke rally to decide the first set point was to indicate the type of tennis The Greatest Tennis Matches of All Time come. Nadal broke serve first, occurring in the third game. At he served for the set before Federer carved out two break-back opportunities, which were suffocated by his opponent who claimed the title on his third set point.

With over years of history, there have been some matches which are considered the most memorable and will remain like that for the foreseeable future. From the most intense, longest and the most shocking tennis matches, here are our picks for 5 of the greatest Tennis matches of all time. A year after losing the Wimbledon Finals against Nadal, Federer was once again playing in another classic against Roddick. The two tennis players knew each other very well, in fact too well. Some say Roddick was born a few years too late and had to play tennis at the same time as Federer, who managed to defeat the big-serving American 4 times in Slam Finals. However, no other defeat was as bad as the one in the Wimbledon finals. After 3 sets, Federer was leading85but Roddick held on in the 4th set, which meant the 5th and the final set would be played. This would become the longest set in the history of the sport. The two tennis players went back and forth with the serve. Federer then went on to win the Finals. This match was both the longest final in history and the longest 5th set in term of games. The finals lasted for 4 hours and 17 minutes, with a total of 77 games, which surpasses the previous record of 71 games set at Australian Open. Jimmy Connors, the Hall of Famer came into the match as th in the world. This alone makes this match that more interesting, but it was not only that, the chaos, arguing, fans and the fact that on the day of the match, Connors turned 39 years old, add to the excitement and make the match that much more memorable. It is most likely the most watched tennis match, as it showed us a picture of how Connors managed to win despite his age and all the odds that went against him. Something is telling me this match alone made The Greatest Tennis Matches of All Time of the players like Federer, Agassi… keep playing despite their old age. The story and the message from Connors alone is far more important than the score alone, but for the sake of not skipping the results;8,4. While the match was not the finals, but rather the 4th round, it still belongs to be ranked among the top 5 greatest matches ever played. The Greatest Tennis Matches of All Time guess I can say this match that was so good it took 3 days to complete. After the 4 sets, the match was tied but had to be suspended due to darkness. The next day when players once again met at the court not many people could have guessed the darkness would once again play a part. Isner finally managed to winwith the match lasting 11 hours and 5 minutes. The fifth set alone lasted 8 hours and 11 minutes. And no it was not even the finals, but rather the 1st round. For some unknown names, for others the legends of tennis. It was the year when two titans of their era played a spectacular match which ended after all 5 sets. On one side we had Borg who was looking for his 5th straight The Greatest Tennis Matches of All Time title, on the other side McEnroe who denied Borg The Greatest Tennis Matches of All Time chance to finish the match 2 times during the 4 sets.
