Becker just invented a special way to play tennis, a mix between elegance and muscular power, starting from that incredible serve movement. Such a beautiful, unique and unrepeatable style. Miss Becker so much. Greetings from Rome Italy December 2022
I’m sure he embellished things, but some probably is sincerely what he remembers- but after reading his book and rewatching many of his matches in UA-cam I just concluded that he is just mixing up things that happened in different matches and years- AA played so many times against Becker, against Sampras, Chan, Goran, etc, that I can understand that some anecdote really happen, even if he embellished them dar the book, just sometimes he put in the wrong moment.
@@GhostofGerulaitisBecker changed the movement around 1989. Watch the very early years and you will see that his serve movement was more fluent and more dynamic.
The 1986-2002 era had the most parity and varying tennis styles. Lendl, Wilander, Edberg, Becker, Cash, Stich, Agassi, Sampras, Courier, Chang, Muster, Rafter, Ivanišević, Hewitt, Safin, etc.
Yeah it was the most exciting era and it was not just all about first serve and base line rallies. While I still enjoy tennis today at times, and it being with more emphasis on power, it still looks less interesting because the players today seem to all play the same way and most do not have a plan-b when things are not going their way.
Well said , you had contrasting styles, clay court specialists, grass court specialists, the equipment was powerful , but not TOO powerful, yet, ( graphite )!string as well.
these are two of the players who had a huge impact on my passion for tennis growing up. thank you for uploading this! Borg, Wilander, Cash, Lendl, Nystrom, Jarryd, Noah, Mac, Connors, Edberg, Becker, Agassi.............loved watching all of them and taking a little bit from each style. what an era.
@@dukesmith8097 so many great players & personalities with unique individual styles back in the 80's & 90's. Miss that. Today's tennis is a bunch of aggressive baselines. Big serve, Big forehand. Whoever is more on that day wins. A few exceptions, but mostly just 1st strike Grip & Rip players. They're effective & tough to beat, but just not as fun to watch or play. Contrasting styles are fun!
Me too! I was a huge Agassi fan but Becker grew on me. At first i hated him and found it insulting when people compared me to him because i am a redhead also. But i csme to appreciate his tennis and his intimidating body language on court - very confident, almost arrogant, yet he was usually a very fair competitor.
I watched the replay of this match as I’m reading Agassi’s book. He embellished the end where he says he made Becker wait at the net to shake hands; quite the opposite haha.This was a great win for Andre though.
@@pincessdogg5222 according to Andre's book Becker talked trash about Agassi, saying he was an elitist and all mayor tournaments promoted him and gave him preferencial status. Before that they both knew they didn't liked each other but Becker words added fuel to the fire
Ultimately, I think Andre and his camp had too much riding on this match. This was the culmination of Andre's summer, not the final. Also, being the night match, having less than 24 hours rest before the final against Pete really put him up against it. Super Saturday was such a dumb scheduling idea. Having a championship match where one of the players is only 18 hours removed from their semifinal....ridiculous. So glad they don't do that anymore.
I'm surprised Becker didn't rally more from the baseline like he did at Wimbledon 1995. If the 1996 Australian open (slower higher bouncing surface) was any indication, he was more than capable of doing so and effectively.
@@Vipa567 Actually, contrary to popular belief he preferred slice and kick serves to set up his groundstrokes at least in his junior career but since his baseline game had not developed enough when he made his transition to the pros in 1984, he increasingly relied on a big serve (basically two first serves)which was most effective at Wimbledon and indoors since his ability to rally (9+ shots) had not developed fully ("..didn't have the strokes or legs"). If anything in his own words, his early success at Wimbledon stunted his growth and delayed his all court game. He said he would have preferred to develop his baseline game and win Wimbledon at 20. He and lendl (and later Sampras) were about Serve + groundstroke winners than serve volley unlike edberg or McEnroe, but he was more natural at the net than lendl and Sampras for sure.
@Scalping Forever He won two titles on Rebound Ace by primarily rallying from the baseline and occasionally mixing it up, but the key was he was prepared for the heat and was physically fit to handle the grind. If anything, his game was even more suited to the US open surface since it was faster and lower bouncing and he should have won one or two more there but I think it was a combination of not being physically fit and mindset. Not his game.
@Scalping Forever Lendl was not a "defensive" baseliner. He was one of the hardest hitters in the men's game. As to your point about losing badly against agassi, no. Not in his 1995-96 form. In fact, he would have won. But anything less from becker in terms of physical fitness and mindset agassi would have won. No doubt.
Becker played one of his best games ever on hard courts but Agassi was almost unplayable to anyone that summer. in fact, in the final the bookmakers gave him the favorite against Sampras, but he spent too much mentally in this semi-final
I'm really suprised of the "fresh" hand shake of the end of the match between the players ... I don't remember Agassi had a litigation with Beker ... 🤔 More important : this time offered us many match with so much style contrasts. Since 2000 years, players are too fast, too powered, with very elaborate equipment ... so happy to see Alcaraz back to varied shots and coming more to the let than others baseline players !!!
@@justdev8965 Sorry, but Djokovic is too busy whining about the fans not liking him. Check his Paris interview from a few weeks ago. He's been crying about this fact for more than 15 years.
@@halleck3 He said that he had to let some points go so Becker would not get too suspicious. Agassi starts moving many times before Becker serves so it does appear that he can read the serve
@@halleck3 To throw him off the scent. He saved it for the points that mattered, he hated Becker. Agassi was a very smart player. Quite a few players gave away signs of what they were going to do. With Agassi attacking the ball early on the rise, he hit a lot of winners off a serve That kills your opponent and drains their confidence serving
@@JalandharShere Actually it is true. Agassi mentioned it in an interview - and since Agassi beat Becker lifetime 10 out of 14 matches I think we can both agree Agassi owned him. And also consider this - Agassi lost the first 3 meetings with Becker and then after watching film and picking up Becker's tell with his tongue - Agassi won the next 10 of 11 matches. HE KNEW AND IT'S TRUE.
Becker may well be the only elite player who used an eastern forehand grip on his serve. Or maybe the only male pro EVER for that matter. It's bizarre to say the least, but highly effective.
I am of the same generation like these two hero’s of my childhood and youth. But I must say: Speed and quality of those days is not comparable to todays players and matches. But this is for nearly every other sport as well…
@@blake7871 No it was ahead of it's time. He was the first all court power baseliner. Lendl was a power baseliner too but not as natural at the net. Also, Lendl had a conventional grip. Becker's was more extreme and his forehand topspin was more pronounced. Lendl hit the ball flatter.

Becker's tennis is a tennis that lasts very short because it focuses on the serve and the immediate descent to the net! Beat on those who have a proper straight pass!!
Great returner but he was not a complete player do to to his average serve and poor net play. Compared to a more complete player like Federer who can basically do anything.
@@jasonjansen9831 He was a complete player which is why he was able to win all 4 Grand Slams. He had a better return and backhand than Fed. His serve was underrated, far from average, he could hit his spots and had a great kick serve.
@@Ripsterrr ... but his net play was weak, movement subpar and he lacked a bit of "touch". On the list of things he did better than Fed however - You can also add to the list a better smash from the back of the court (and I agree his serve was underrated).
Agassi does try to speed up the process between points and it kind of creates unforced errors for Becker. But Boris still had game ... when he turns it on, he still looks a champion player.
Jemand der Jahre lang mit einem "Haarteil" spielt kann ich einfach nicht ernst nehmen! Ich finde es aber gut das er zu seinem Doping steht und Anderen, auch u.a. Becker dadurch Titel gekostet hat.
Watch Becker's tung when he serves, if it points to the left, then the serve will go to the left, if it points to the right, then the serve will go the the right. This is all according to Agassi's own statement !
@@Retsler54 These two were basically using the same rackets in 1995 that they used in 1988. and I don't think either of them were hitting any harder in 1995. I do think, though, that they were both better players because the game is constantly improving.
Becker disturbed and beat Agassi in Wimbledon the same year by flirting with Agassi's girlfriend. Agassi was not happy about that (from what i have read).
