Thank you for listening to our suggestions and putting more full matches instead of highlights
Love this tennis. Great lobs, touch volleys and passing shots. Today’s tennis is just crush the ball from the baseline. Everyone plays the exact same game.
Couldn't agree more, I don't know how anyone watches tennis nowadays.
It really isn’t. Everything is just happening much faster now
Players have always played the most aggressive, offensive-minded way that the equipment technology of their generation allowed.
@@dannytoots6635nah there is an imbalance and lack of harmony in today’s style of tennis. Tennis has degraded
Richey had a decent, all around game.
Many don't realize he was a talented guy. 2 grand slam doubles titles, and made the top 20 in singles.
I watched Reneberge live at Texas A&M. He was NCAA champ at the time, playing double against the A&M team. He was just playing half throttled compared to this match, serving second serve speed the whole time, and still the A&M team had no chance, losing 6-2, 6-2.

Great video. Thank you.
Much love for McEnroe.
He was a huge a hole
I was at this match! :)
Reneburg's services wind-up looks a bit like Edburg but less flat grip.
They didn't have linemen for this match?
- How many serve&volley did McEnroe try?
- Yes.
Assalomu alaykum qanday qilib sizning asotsiyangizga qo'shilsa bo'ladi🎾
Racquet experts out there, can you help me out? That Dunlop looks less circular and too glossy to be the original 200g John used before and actually well after this date...I dunno, maybe the lights are making it shine, but I thought the original was all he used during his ATP career outside of wood.
87 Us open he used a different Dunlop.
I love John.
Mac played quite well at this Open. But remember he had an outburst against Zivojinovic in the 3rd round that got him a 3 month suspension from the tour which meant he didn't play an official tournament again that year. Lendl was too strong for Mac that year in the quarters.
I always used to think Reneberg looked like a serial killer
You should have seen Reneberg play college tennis. This match was serious. In the double college match, I saw him smiling, talking with his partner all the time, playing just at half throttled and still beat the Texas A&M team easily 6-2, 6-2
@@tomsd8656 and of course him and Jim Grabb played the 92 Wimbledon doubles final against Mac and Michael Stich, Mac's last ever match at Wimbledon
Richey played well...................... he was not highly ranked in singles.
👌
Reneberg was a much better doubles player
Errm, McEnroe and his teammate Fleming dominated the doubles with 52 victories. So again, total nonsense.. This kind of idiocy annoys me.
@@ravey99he meant Reneberg was a better doubles player than singles not that he was better than Mac
So maybe you have a touch of idiocy too
@@ravey99 By the way .The idiocy is keep saying that MCEnroe lost RG 1984 final because he lost the concentration...He lost that match because Lendl was the better player that day on court , Lendl played the way a good clay court player needs to play against a on form McEnroe -simple as
I love the tennis. Men in short shorts is difficult to watch though.
McEnroe ping pong tennis
Richey Reneberg's tennis looks like modern tennis. His technique is better than McEnroe.
What an absolute ridiculous comment!
You're right. Reneberg's technique does look modern. On the other hand, McEnroe wasn't known for the best technique. For instance on volleys he would sometimes stick out his racket at the last moment. Playing McEnroe's unorthodox game needs extraordinary ability.
McEnroe technique was unique to him, he was extremely gifted, he was a one off. Reneberg was more standard text book technique used by most players. McEnroe was special….
@@mickymalibu Miloslav Mecir was a little similar in his freedom with the racket but the speed increase with modern rackets has meant such freedom can’t survive. Also like Leander Paes. Closest I got to McEnroe was doubles on the outside courts at Wimbledon, he was god-like in his abilities, playing shots you couldn’t imagine were possible.
@@AndrewDCDrummond yes it’s a different game now for sure but Federer is not so unlike McEnroe skill wise also I think a lot of people don’t realise McEnroe was at the top in both the wooden racket era and the graphite era which is massive. It would be interesting to see how modern players would have done with wooden rackets and small racket heads or do the rely on the frame helping them.
NIKE partnerlook hehe
American people still like McEnroe for his attitude but when Djokovic shows some emotion in the court, he is hated for that. Peak of hypocrisy.
Hypocrisy? 40 years later: much different times and much different people attending tennis matches. And let’s face it, some people are entertaining and some aren’t.
There's no need for slow motion on youtube... and please, remove those applauding crowd images, players returning to the baseline etc.
Those highlights are terrible.
?
Mary Carillo and Bud Collins, worst tennis commentators ever.
It is well to remind us all how obnoxious was McEnroe with his complete lack of respect for any opponent.
Thanks Karen
Which racquet used here mc jesus ?
What utter nonsense. His derision was directed to hopeless line judging. He was and is an exemplary player whose commentary at Wimbledon is wonderful. He outclassed Reneberg here.
@rondunn4336. You very conveniently forget that McEnroe had tremendous respect for Bjorn Borg during their years on the men's pro tennis tour and has frequently stated that he never had any problem with Borg during their matches against each other! McEnroe's angst was directed primarily at chair umpires, lines people and obnoxious fans (e.g , the obnoxious woman sitting in the lower stands during one of McEnroe's night matches at the U.S. Open) not players! A notable exception was his on-court arguments with Connors.
Was wondering too
