After all of these years I still remember that point against Haarhuis! The most exciting player of all time! He’s the reason I became a tennis fan!
Jimmy was the most exciting player of his era! I think he had the biggest heart in the history of tennis. Often imitated, never duplicated!
What a tennis icon. Never disappointed the crowd. Loved watching him play
One of the historical true tennis icons🔝, a true legend💯
Thanks for the love and support you show me as a loyal fan of mine not withstanding how long have you been a fan of mine
This is sentimental for me, I used to watch the games with my mom. She loved Jimmy, Bjorn and the others from that era. I miss her and this was something we shared in happy times. ❤❤ mom
I'm so glad you have some great memories of watching together. Many blessings to you
Jimmy Connors is my #1 tennis player of all time.
Uno de los mejores q he visto, nunca vi un jugador levantar tantos mach point como el. Por algo tiene un record q nadie hasta ahora ,lo podra batir el GOAT Nole
"Anyone who says that he (Connors) isn't one of the all time greats is wrong" ... John McEnroe
The most important player in the history of tennis!

@@JimmyConnors-cy2xt você foi o melhor que eu vi até hoje.
I totally agree!
Jimmy Connors con quel taglio di capelli, sembrava un componente dei Beatles 😁 invece è stato un grande del tennis ed ha vinto tantissimo.💪🏻🎾
Jimmy Connors was the tennis player who turned tennis into a spectacle and a massive sport. It must be remembered that tennis was an elitist sport with little coverage in the media. Connors' arrival in tennis was essential for this sport, since his irreverent and provocative style infected the young public of that time, becoming a character loved and hated at the same time, generating the effect of competition and rivalries outside and inside the tennis court. ,Something that tennis needed to become a mass sport and attractive to television stations. Its importance as the catalyst that changed tennis forever is really little recognized!!
Back in the mid 80's I was a porter at the Players Tennis Championship in Toronto and 15 years old and many times in the same room with the best in the game at the time, Ivan Lendl, John McEnroe, but Jimmy was my favourite. I once asked John McEnroe for tennis ball and he made expletive-filled jokes and ignored me. He often seemed to be angry about something. One day I asked Jimmy for a tennis ball and he gave me a racquet and asked me if I also played tennis, which I did at the time. Small talk, but he was quite pleasant and took the time to speak to me which I will never forget. His career was in decline at this time, but, Jimmy was my favourite! LEGEND
Simply the best!❤
I have never seen a player more fun to watch than Connors. I still have my old T-2000 in honor of him.

I do as well.

@@JimmyConnors-cy2xt Since 1975 sir, I watchedeverytime you were on TV. Your the greatest all time for me.

warrior on the court, best entertainer... love him
4:25 should be Number 1. Best tennis point ever!
Quand on prend du recul, avec le temps, on remarque que Jimmy connors jouait vraiment très bien.
04:26 This is (hands down) the best point in tennis history!!!
I’m glad I was able to witness most of his career. I got into tennis in the late 70’s early 80’s. One of the best ever he was. My all time favorite. One of my first Racquets I bought was a Wilson T-2000. I still have it. I always wished I had bought the T-3000 because that’s the one he used I think? He was a once in a lifetime talent. Man I sure miss those days!
He used the T-2000.
@@NocturnbandofficialOh cool! I couldn’t remember. Yeah that’s the one I still have after all these years. Glad I kept it. I still have a Jack Kramer Autograph too. I think McEnroe used the Pro Staff? Glad I held on to them though.
I would have rated the point against Haarhuis #1. That point was a microcosm of Connors: a battler who when he saw a chance to strike he took it. Plus, he had just turned 39 a couple of days earlier and was still playing at that level. Panatta would be #2. Those were amazing points.

He changed the ideology of tennis the original entertainer
Reading his book currently
Do tennis fans ever wonder WHO invented the Fist Pump? So many tennis players to this very day punch the air after winning a big point, and nobody in tennis ever acted this way before Jimmy Connors burst onto the scene. Connors is easily the most exciting player ever, and even when he lost you still got to see a show......
Excellent 👍👍👍🌟🌟🌟 compilation!!

Great Jimmy Connors.
Wow, Ken Rosewall was in a Grand Slam final at the age of 40. Connors' last Grand Slam final (and win) was at age 31.
Rosewall was 39 at those 1974 finals he lost to Connors. Connors was in his last Grand Slam final in 1984, lost to McEnroe.
Ce bon vieux Jimbo, born in the USA ,born in the us open 😊
He won US Open on grass, clay and hardcourt 😮
The great and only Pancho Segura!
"Went for the ace down the middle and just missed it." LOL. That was the biggest miss I’ve seen in my life. The commentators must have had terrible seats back then.

the fifth best moment should be in top 3 in terms of winner quality
*Legend.*
Um dos mais carismáticos

My first tennis hero! Then came John and as a Scot Andy. The GOAT? Roger, who else!😊
You spelt Djokovic wrong.
0:17 That's from 1974. How is it that the video is sharp and clear enough to see the ball, but some videos from the 1980s are so faint, the ball is nowhere to be seen?
#5 it was the T-2000.
What about the 1977 semi final with Barazzutti? You know, when the ball was out, so he ran to Barazzutti field to cancel the mark with his foot
also break point at a critical time: Paul blew (4) overheads, so cant really feel bad 4 him
Les raquettes !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Punaise je me rappelait plus à quel point elles étaient petites.
#5 - @4:25 - Turning Tables…
4 h mornings finish championship
❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣💥🤟🤟👍
How is #5 NOT #1
I didn't know US open was played on grass and clay
Connors > McEnroe.
Chris Evert watched Connors's first us open win in 1974 in the stand as her girlfriend. Perhaps the only couple in tennis who could have matched Graf & Agassi, but they split after some years.

🎉.😂
Graf and Agassi weren’t a thing during the prime of their careers, like Jimmy and Evert were, big difference
Well, that was underwhelming
Lol, and why don’t you post your list of victories against the “three players” that “share everything”? Have they just not shared a grand slam win with you yet?
You’re right though, playing against the super-athletes of today definitely pales in comparison to the sheer physicality of the habitually smoking and drinking average athletes of back in the day 😂
A very low level compared to the current game
Y las raquetas? La Wilson T2000 hasta ahora el récord a batir. 109 títulos
