This man was the reason I started watching tennis in 76 as a 7 year old. In those days, all we say on tv was Wimbledon once a year. I can still see the shot McEnroe hit to beat him in 1981. This was very difficult for an 11 year old to take. Borg doesn't lose! When all is said and done, there is a case to be made for Bjorn being called the greatest of all time. On clay, there is no question. Nobody in tennis dominated a surface like Borg did the red stuff. His Wimbledon record speaks for itself. 11 slams by the age of 25 is astounding. I know McEnroe had taken the top spot in the rankings, but Borg would have won stacks more slams had he not retired when he did. The best mind in the game without a doubt and the best athlete - perhaps in any sport at any time. The greatest in my mind to have played the game. Watch out for Federer, though. He's not greater yet, but he's BETTER than everyone before him.
