| They are no more committed than anyone else.....they are just evenly matched. Any other two players would be in the same situation.

| Yes one thing about that era was there were a lot of good players who were evenly matched. Since then the numbers of really good players have dropped but at the same time we've had the three all time legends of the game (Sampras, Federer and Nadal) come through - possibly you could put Agassi in that category, maybe a bit below. I reckon any of Sampras, Federer or Nadal would have been the best player through the 1980s. Whilst the Grand Slams were shared out in that era, the world no.1 for most of it was Lendl who was an incredibly fit athlete but I don't think was good as those three.
However, when you look at the other players who have been just below Federer and Nadal in recent times, the likes of Roddick, Murray, Djokovic, they would have struggled to be top 10 players in the 1980s, I think they would have been below the pecking order of Edberg, Becker, Wilander and these guys.
Just choosing Federer as the example as he is the best, I reckon if he'd played in the 1980s he wouldn't have won nearly as many Grand Slams as he has done, although he would have been the best player in his era. There's been times when he's been below par and still sailed through because of the lack of any credible challenger to him but in that era he would have been punished in those days and lost in more QFs and SFs.
Reckon if I had to choose my all time top 10 ratings of players I've seen it would be
1 Federer
2 Sampras
3 Nadal
4 Agassi
5 Lendl
6 Edberg
7 Becker
8 McEnroe
9 Wilander
10 Muster

| They are third match on Court 18 today, after two Women's Singles. Could even make it to a fourth day at this rate!

I never actually saw Borg. My first Wimbledon was 1986, Becker beat Lendl in the final.
