  • LA LEGENDE Ce Qu'il Ne Fallait Pas Louper 10 Matches De Légende De L
    LA LEGENDE Ce qu’il ne fallait pas louper 10 matches de légende de l’histoire (récente) du tennis Dans la série des matches qui sont ont marqués l’histoire du tennis, voilà une ribambelle de dix rencontres mythiques des années 1980 à nos jours (hors Roland Garros), à revisiter sans modération. 1. Björn Borg (Suède) - John McEnroe (États-Unis) : 1-6, 7-5, 6-3, 6-7 (16-18), 8-6. Finale messieurs Wimbledon 1980. Le scénario de ce match qui opposa les deux meilleurs joueurs de l’époque, fut un véritable thriller. McEnroe gagna facilement le premier set avant que Borg remporte les deux suivants. Dans la quatrième manche, l’Américain sauva deux balles de match, puis cinq autres dans un invraisemblable tie- break qu’il remporta finalement, 18 à 16 ! L’Ice Borg vacilla, mais finit par terrasser Super Brat (sale morveux) au bout de 3h53’ de jeu, dans ce qui est peut-être alors le match du siècle. Le romancier britannique Iain Pears écrira ensuite « chacun a rencontré, en l’autre, son destin ». 2. John McEnroe (États-Unis) - Mats Wilander (Suède) : 9-7, 6-2, 15- 17, 3-6, 8-6. Quart de finale de la Coupe Davis 1982. La Coupe Davis a toujours occupé une place à part dans le cœur des tennismen. En quart de finale de cette édition 1982, les poulains d’Arthur Ashe, avec à leur tête McEnroe, sont opposés à la Suède de Wilander qui vient de gagner Roland Garros. Le dernier match, crucial, oppose les deux hommes. L’Américain empoche les deux premiers sets avant que Wilander revienne.

    News Release 26 November 2018 DJOKOVIC, NADAL, FEDERER IN TOP 3 YEAR-END ATP RANKINGS FOR RECORD 7TH TIME, FIRST TIME SINCE 2014 PONTE VEDRA BEACH, FLORIDA — The ATP World Tour today published the 2018 year-end ATP Rankings on ATPWorldTour.com after an exciting season of milestones and breakthroughs. The trio of Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer finished in the Top 3 ATP Rankings for the seventh time (2007-11, 2014, 2018), the first since 2014. All three players ranked No. 1 at one stage during the year and it was the first time all three ranked No. 1 during the same season. There were five changes in the year-end Top 10 from the previous season for the second year in a row, including first-timers No. 6 Kevin Anderson and No. 10 John Isner, both former U.S. collegiate standouts. The last time at least two former college players finished in the Top 10 was in 1989 when John McEnroe, Brad Gilbert and Jay Berger accomplished the feat. Other players returning to the Top 10 were World No. 1 Novak Djokovic, who was No. 12 at the end of 2017, No. 5 Juan Martin del Potro, who equaled his year- end best from 2013, the last time he was in the Top 10, and No. 9 Kei Nishikori, who jumped from No. 22 last year. For the first time in ATP Rankings history (since 1973), players from five different regions of the world were represented in the Top 10. Six players from Europe and one each from Africa, Asia, North and South America comprised the Top 10.
