I guess you would want a top competitor playing for you if the fate of the world is at stake.
Without picking any one myself but many have picked Pancho Gonzalez when this was asked and some Jimmy Connors. Others have picked Lew Hoad.
Look at Djokovic in recent years, he's won a lot of matches from match point down. The man refused to give up. Same with Nadal in refusing to give up.

I´d always pick Borg over Connors if my life was at stake.
If my life was at stake with my opponent serving at 5-4, 40-0 in the fifth set, I´d have no doubt: Rod Laver.
