Can anyone post some Court, King or Goolagong on You-Tube? Tennis did not start with Evert and Navratilova anymore than it did Connors and McEnroe! If they can find Laver ,Rosewall and Ashe to post, they can find these ladies! By the way, some great matches of Evert's and Austins have showed up on y-tube, including Evert's victories in the final rounds of USO 1980, her 1984 loss to Navratilova and Austin's USO victory over Navratilova in 1981. Evert's first open in 1971 is shown as well over Eisel. I'm not techy enough to post links, myself.

A true gem for those who can tolerate megaupload. Was enough for me to subscribe for a month:

Nastase was one of the most gifted athletes of all time. Like Borg, his best shot was his body. Was fast like the wind. In tennis terms, he played an artistic allround game like Santana or now Federer. Had all the shots, including the topspin lob. Developed a very hard, underrated serve, especially in his later years. Only weakness was maybe the penetration on the volley, which cost him at least one Wimbledon win. Played and won many , many tournaments, around 80, if you count pre open and open era. Could beat and demolish all top players, including Borg and Connors, whom he owned for most of his career.Under the tutelage of Tiriac, he turned to nasty tricks, often to his own detriment. His nerves were as highly strung as his rackets. Had problems with favorite-status. In 1973, as the only top player, to play Wimbledon, and hottest favorite ever, he lost to Sandy Mayer in round of 16. Playing on his home ground, home clay and before all his relatives as line judges, he gifted the Davis Cup 1972 to the Americans, which made him very unpopular in Bukarest.Was disqualified by referee Horst Klosterkemper in the first round of 1975 Masters vs. Ashe, only to win the tournament vs. Borg 2,2 and 1.

Some of the good, lengthy clips from an interresting Dailymotion account (http://www.dailymotion.com/majorwoody1):

I don't know if I was the last to know it, but I was delighted to discover some amazing, really old tennis footage in the British Pathe archive (http://www.britishpathe.com). Most of the material consists of Pathe Gazette newsreels, but there's also some raw footage and a few longer films - just beware that the quality of the free previews isn't always good. Some examples of the films I found of Bill Tilden:
Tilden's firt professional match against Koseluh in 1931: http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=4676 I'm pretty sure the first match is between Tilden and Nusslein: http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=50511 Tennis Greats: Documentary containing footage of 1900!: http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=81594 These are just a few of the clips I found of Tilden, so there's much more good material to explore!

Just some more examples:
How I play tennis - by Mlle. Suzanne Lenglen. Interesting slow motion footage of Lenglen's shots : http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=75159 Crawford v Vines 1931 Wimbledon final: http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=4059 Olmedo v McKay, Lew Hoad v Pancho Gonzales in the early 60's: http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=68396 Budge's professional debut in 1939 v Vines: http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=22806 Budge v Riggs. Interview with both at the end: http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=50406 - Don Budge v von Cramm (unfortunately not the 37 Davis Cup SF...). Despite the narration, amazing slow motion footage of Budge!: http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=50411 Last edited by Marcos : 07-27-2009 at 02:24 PM. |

Thanks, great footage. The last film shows, that von Cramm had a fine slicing serve. And that the doubles were in contrary to singles much more net orientated, with fast volleying essential.

I found more good old clips in a couple of other sites. While their collection is not as big as the British Pathe archive, the clips they do have are of a much better quality.
Some examples from http://www.thoughtequity.com: Tilden v Koseluh 1931 Madison Square Garden: http://www.thoughtequity.com/video/clip/1617539_003.do Budge v Riggs 1942 US Pro Championships: http://www.thoughtequity.com/video/clip/1617554_005.do Riggs v Kramer 1947 MSG: http://www.thoughtequity.com/video/clip/1617568_024.do Some from http://www.efootage.com: Fred Perry v Wilmer Allison 1934 U.S. Championships: http://www.efootage.com/play_clip.php?clip_id=57873 Rosewall v Smith 1970 US Open final: http://www.efootage.com/play-stock-f...ing-competitor Last edited by Marcos : 09-14-2008 at 10:14 AM. |

OK, still some more sites offering good ancient tennis clips.
Examples from http://www.budgetfilms.com: Tilden d Richards in 1920's: http://www.budgetfilms.com/productde...productid=3604 A point and excelent slow motion shots of Tilden: http://www.budgetfilms.com/productde...productid=3602 Short clip of Budge d von Cramm Davis Cup 1937 (some consider it the best match ever): http://www.budgetfilms.com/productde...productid=3624 http://www.producerslibrary.com/. Not much on this one, but had to highlight these: Budge d Austin, Moody d Jacobs 1938 Wimbledon: http://www.producerslibrary.com/disp...me=VM-0225_003 USA d Australia 1958 Davis Cup Final (Olmedo, Fraser etc.): http://www.producerslibrary.com/disp...me=VM-0177_022 http://www.movietone.com/. This one requires registration, but it is a quite simple one. The video windows are also small, but the image is always very clear. The thing is that they have the best collection I found. Some of their gems: Gonzales d Rosewall 1957, Muscles' professional debut: http://www.movietone.com/N_search.cf...ultsPerPage=10 Rosewall d Laver 1963 Madison Square Garden: http://www.movietone.com/N_search.cf...ultsPerPage=10 Mal Anderson d Pancho Segura 1959 Wembley: http://www.movietone.com/N_search.cf...ultsPerPage=10 Last edited by Marcos : 09-16-2008 at 08:46 AM. |
