I met Jimmy Connors at the Fabulous Forum in Los Angeles while being on a field trip from my high school tennis team. I had a preconceived belief about him that was totally wrong. He was the most gracious person I ever met. I will always adore him for his kindness.
Jimmy was a hard nose competitor. He did have a quintessential American vibe like Pete Rose had in baseball. He was the kid from down the street who played tennis when we were all playing baseball and street football. Sometimes he'd join in until his Mom would yell at him to come home cause he had a big tournament that weekend. The tennis world didn't know how to take his brashness. But he was the guy I could relate to and and one of the reasons I became fascinated with the sport.
Many years ago while in california taking a bike ride with my two year old daughter on the back i came across Jimmy Conners alone hitting against a wooden backboard..I told her she was watching one of the Greatest tennis players ever to play the game.She does not remember.But I do! Thanks for the memory.
Nothing impressed me more than Jimmy Connors. This man would make you feel like you were right there taking backhands. Jimmy never had that good of a serve but his returns were the best in the business.
It was the simple hard work vs the Genious, making it fun to watch. I cheered for the hard work Connors but especially now , repect both players for what they did for Tennis.
I loved Jimmy Connors. He was my favorite athlete growing up in the 70’s. This documentary did a very good job of capturing the essence of this rivalry from the perspective of the French. They interviewed key people in both men’s life; John’s brother and father; (Jimmy was brought up by a wolf pack.) They interviewed men he played against. What they say is truth, and makes this documentary more honest than compelling. It is not stereotypical. This is based on the actions of Jimmy and John. This is who they were, and they did a good job with that. You have to remember that this is how the French viewed them.
Jimmy Connors has always been my favourite player since I started watching the game as a young boy in the late 1970's/early 80's thanks to his never say die attitude and interactions with the crowds. I was also a big fan of Borg for his athleticism and coolness under pressure but at the time I never warmed to McEnroe though I did like seeing one of his on court meltdowns which were entertaining to watch. Later on I've got to like John much more and his really is the best commentator out there. Both Jimmy & Mac along with Borg were legends which made for fascinating viewing and help the game no end. A shame there are very few big personalities in the current game even if the tennis is brilliant.
i'm a big lifetime fan of jimmy's, but i will say the us open 1980 semi was the greatest tennis match i've ever seen. you can say what you want but those 2 always had you out of your seat multiple times
I hated this documentary. I lived through this era of tennis as a young teenager, am from St. Louis ( across the river from when Connors grew up), these absurdly inaccurate presumptions are tragically off-mark, and based on the saddest stereotypes. I followed McEnroe and Connor's games all along, and this 'documentary' is like a fifth grader trying to do a book report on Ulysses.
I agree. A very poor production full of errors and bad AI. These guys were great to watch and great for tennis. Sure they were intense but they were both brilliant. It’s what tennis lacks now, personalities.
@@stephenchalmers71 I am French and I can tell you: it's very bad. Bacharan is supposed to be an expert on the United States. She peddles all kinds of prejudices about Americans, about American politics, and she knows nothing about tennis.😁
Jimmy Connors is my favourite tennis player since his Wimbledon win in 1974. He titled his autobiography "The Outsider". That's the role he took on deliberately. Connors made tennis big opera, big entertainment for the masses.
The thing about connors is that, to my knowledge, he has never spoken ill of him after his career, whereas mcenroe has referred to him as an ahole. In my opinion, that makes connors the bigger man. On the other hand, mcenroe never made the obscene on court gestures connors did in his youth. And it's hypocritical for connors to have a go at mcenroe, when he was no angel himself, especially in his younger days. Another good thing about mcenroe was that he always made time for the davis cup, and never played in south africa during the time of the apartheid regime. As a result, i got more respect for mcenroe as a person as i do for connors.
The thumbnail for this video looks like it's from the 1981 Benson & Hedges Championship Final. It was a pretty big event back then. I remember watching that match on USA Network as a 15 year old. It stands out as one of the greatest matches I've ever seen. The quality of play, and the drama from that match, stands out to me. This rivalry is an amazing one.
I remember it and Mac tanked it he was on weed Connors was clean never did drugs Great man off court Ive met Connors very humble man... Mac is a lost soul
Conners was my first favorite tennis player. I loved his brashness and fighting spirit. I began hitting two handed BH and set up points from the baseline. When Mac came along I thought Conners way seems like too much work as Macs game seemed kinda casual and cool. It's like a ball player who looks so nonchalant so I started hitting a one hand BH and even did the side saddle serve like Mac quite good. His style seemed like you could play forever without killing yourself which he still does amazingly well.
I would have loved Connors knuckles in Macs mouth. He wouldn’t be able to blab with knuckles in his mouth and it almost happened in Chicago. Connnors walked over the net and got in Macs face. 98 percent of the fans were hoping for it by then.
Min 14:44..."That euphoria, that delirious public" ......was the moment when Guillermo Vilas defeated the defending champion Jimmy Connors in the final, 2-6, 6-3, 7-6 (7-4), 6-0 to win the men's singles tennis title at the 1977 US Open.
J'étais un grand fan de Jimmy Connors, c'était mon joueur préféré mais un jour j'ai vu un reportage sur lui. Il montrait comment il avait détruit psychologiquement Aaron Krickstein, son ami et partenaire d'entraînement. C'était sale... Jumbo avait fini sa carrière depuis longtemps mais je ne l'ai plus regardé avec les mêmes yeux, quand bien même ce fut un très grand champion dont j'apprécie toujours l'exceptionnelle combativité. Notamment contre l'insupportable (hi, hi, hi, je tease) John McEnroe, le joueur préféré de mon frère ; ça ne s'invente pas !
John McEnroe contributed to the growth of tennis by his work as a commentator. He has been a great teacher and mentor to millions of players by sharing his intuition and iq. As far as records go, John's titles in double and Davis cup put him in the class of Federer, Nadal and Novak. Jimmy is a legend. Players today have much to learn from their basic and classic fundamentals. They are both greats of our sport and appreciated by players and fans alike.
Os dois foram grandes jogadores de personalidades fortes. Não eram e nunca quiseram ser gentlemans. Cada um enriqueceu e ilustrou o tênis mundial. Dizer que esse foi melhor que aquele é procurar explicar de que é feito o Universo. Podemos sim ter a nossa opinião, mas não a certeza absoluta.
Another thing they have in common, both are good speakers. I hear McEnroe a lot more, not sure why Connors is not commentating more, he is really good.
That time win grand slams not easy as today and huge competition.If Djokovich like players played in 80's then McEnroe Connors destroyed him in wimbledon center court
Roger Federer è stato, e sarà sempre, il piu completo e forte giocatore di tutti i tempi ! Borg il più forte mentalmente. Connors e Nadal i due più grandi lottatori. McEnroe il più forte tecnicamente. Djokovic il più solido e forte fisicamente.
Really in the 50's. Ali, started golden gloves in the 50's. Doesn't start contending for Olympics till 60's JFK only US Pres recipient of the purple heart from WW2 was assignated in 63' Young Mac was fueled by Wimbledon defeat with Connors. Borg was the beast to beat amongst the greats of the day and so on.
Jimmy Connors: "New Yorkers love it when you spill your guts out there. Spill your guts at Wimbledon and they make you stop and clean it up" and "I hate to lose more than I like to win". My all time favourite player who has still won more first class singles tournaments (109) than any other male player!

@@AnneNissen-lh1dgMac never respected Connors like he did Borg or Mats. That is why Jimmy hated him because he acted like a two year old while playing Connors when Connors was twice the player Wilander was and equal to Bjorn.
How you look on Wilander as a player or who Connors looked on him well that depends from person to person.He began as an clay expert , but was able to play 6 hours and 22 minuts against John McEnroe,still ranked nr 1, in the Davis Cup quarter final 1982 (in the USA). He became a more and more all around player and win when counting both single and double all 4 majors.Austrailian Open French Open and Os Open in single ,the same year 1988, and Wimbledon in the double 1986. He was also much more calmer on court, and i do not think any one will forget the match ball against Leclerc in the semi final in the French Open 1982, maybe McEnroe had heard about it.@@michaelconnor5378
The journalist doesn't say that, at least in French : she says "Connors *avale* 11 jeux d'affilée", which literally means "Connors *swallows* (up) 11 games in a row" which is colloquial language that means *"wins"* , not "loses". So the journalist is right and you're wrong in thinking she's wrong 🙃

Ai?
Yeah tennis lost a little of its edginess when Americans started sucking at it. We played that aggressive swashbuckler game like a pirates dual.
0:10 The commentator says "America in the 1950's", but that photo is clearly from much earlier, like the 1920's
miss that era of tennis
Chat GPT documentary if ever there was one
Excellent

I like how the translation and audio is done by AI but not always accurate (soccer was mistaken for US football). Very smart!
Can't believe what Jimmy did with an old steel T2000.
