  I KNOW THE QUALITY OF FEDERER, NADAL AND DJOKOVIC WITH 20 GRAND SLAMS EACH IS UNBELIEVABLE BUT THIS ERA OF CONNORS, MCENROE AND BORG FOR ME IS THE GREATEST EVER!

  Bjorn Borg was the epitome of cool. His play, &nbsp;his style, his look just a total original. Nothing like him before or since. I miss him.

  Borg all icy-clam. McEnroe showing so much emotion. What a contrast. But both absolutely brilliant.

  It was an individual game. No looking at your team at every point, no shouting no &quot;Come on,&quot; and no fist pumping with every point. It feels very different from what it is now.

  I remember this day. I had just started my career as a junior tax accountant, and I remember waking up in my studio apt in downtown Chicago one Sunday AM in June, 1980 and turning on my little 7&quot; TV and discovering this Wimbledon final - I never had watched it before, didn&apos;t even know it was on. I had accidentally stumbled on the greatest match in the history of the sport as my introduction to televised tennis.

  While seeing it, I just realized that this match is farther away from us in time than the end of world war 2 was to this match. Now I&apos;ll get back to finish watching this.

  I know most people write this but.... &apos;I miss those days!&apos; &nbsp; So glad I was a born in the 60&apos;s.... &nbsp;the 70&apos;s and 80&apos;s were amazing! &nbsp;Best memories, ever!

  The resonant sounds at center court from gut strings and wood racquets is unique only to Wimbledon. I miss those days. It was special.

  What made this so tense was also that Borg was chasing history, he was trying to get his 5th consecutive Wimbledon.
