Default Bill Tilden against Jean Borotra

http://www.thoughtequity.com/video/clip/331774_007.do

It's not bad and most of it is in real time except for the last few seconds which shows Tilden returning a lob over his head.

ground level shots in rosewall-roche wimby vid another reminder of how miniscule the grass court bounce was back in the day.

Nice footage of Borg winning the Davis Cup for Sweden. Never saw him so emotional after a win.

He was jubilant wasn't he? That was at 19. Of course you have the emotional Wimbledon wins, but you're right, I've never seen him react like this either. Then, the team's reaction is great. It's lucky they didn't throw him on the court though. That was a big win.

You're kidding me! Thanks so much Nathaniel. This is a gem and I didn't realize that it had been uploaded recently. They would play in the US Open SF in 1981 as well.

A funny short film with Pat Cash appearing as a spectator. Looks like it's filmed in Australia.

Default A Terrible Splendour

These videos are brilliant.

The best book I read as research for my book though, was A TERRIBLE SPLENDOUR by MARSHAL JON FISHER, which describes the 1937 Davis Cup final match between Don Budge and Gotfreid von Cramm at Wimbledon.

It describes the history leading up to the 2nd world war and in detail the lives of Tilden, Budge and von Cramm. - A must-read for anyone interested in the history of the game.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY
