Major fail in tennis story

[SusanDK]

Is it just me, or is there a major fail in this tennis story:

#3 of the 25 greatest Wimbledon moments refers to the 1980 tiebreak between Borg and McEnroe

Isn't that a photo of Becker and McEnroe?

Also, in the text, it claims that Borg won the 4th set tiebreak. Didn't Mac win the tiebreak?

Bjorn Borg and John McEnroe played the greatest tie-breaker in the history of tennis in 1980. It was in the fourth set of their Wimbledon final that year.

The tie break itself went 18-16 in favor of Borg. He then went on to win the fifth set and his fifth consecutive championship at the All England Club.

It was by far one of the greatest moments ever at Wimbledon, or in tennis, period.

Tennis journalism at it's best.

#5 is also amazingly stupid. I guess the author never heard of either Williams sister.

Edit: and Althea Gibson

That whole site is pure waste of time

All journalism is a fail.

"The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers." -- Thomas Jefferson

"I read no newspaper now but Ritchie's, and in that chiefly the advertisements, for they contain the only truths to be relied on in a newspaper." -- Thomas Jefferson

Well apparently Sampras losing to Bastl was one of the greatest moments, but his 7th win in 2000 which finished at 9.15pm at night wasn't mentioned.

Oh well.....

Susan DK is right, that website is an embarrasment in some of its mistakes. And the Mac-Borg error is far from the only one. Virginia Wade, the "last British player to win a Wimbledon title"? Try again!
