I guess I could try translating it when I get home from school, unless Peter or someone else has already translated it by then..
From what time to what time do you want the translation?

Translation:

Borg:
"There you go, that's better! "
"Earlier with the racquet, yeah that's better."
"Back" (meaning, take the racquet back)
* he goes to the other guy and says * "now we´ll correct the grip, okay, now show me again"
after the commentator stops talking about bending the knees borg says " You have to bend your knees to transfer the weight forward"
"Okay, last time now. Good! Racquet far back! That's good, very good. "
Borg approaches him again and says "You have to hit the ball further out in front of you" and after a few hits he says "Now lets try the backhand"
First Borg just tells him the way to hold the racquet and then tells him to tacke the racquet back when he sees the ball clear the net, cause if you dont you wont have enough time.
Again, Borg says that he has to put the left leg more in front to get a nice weight transfer and after a few balls again he says "Now let's try hitting forehands backhand forehand backhand"
Then when the commentator starts talking again it's hard to hear what Borg is saying clearly but he is talking about that Wimbledon final and saying that he will never forget that much, it had everything.

Sorry if the translation sucks, it was very rushed. >.<
