McEnroe too.
He was the guy who sent Borg into retirement, then the change in racquet technology brought down McEnroe....
Yeah, but Lendl I genuinely think was not only hurt by competition, he was one of the only players who would actually excel more in a modern environment. He dominated the AO once they put in Rebound Ace. and many players have said that he would be unstoppable on slow 2010s Wimbledon too.
But like: look at the competition he faced at the US Open (he 'only' has 3 titles there)
'82 - beat 23 yr old McEnroe, loses to 30 yr old Connors
'83 - beats Wilander, loses to 31 yr old Connors
'84 - loses to arguably GOAT season McEnroe
'85 - beats Connors and McEnroe back to back to win
'86 - beats Edberg and Mecir to win
'87 - beats McEnroe, Connors, then Wilander in QF/SF/F
'88 - beats Agassi, loses to Wilander
'89 - beats Agassi, loses to Becker
'90 - loses to Pete Sampras in first Slam win
'91 - loses to Edberg after a 5 setter with Stich
'92 - loses to Edberg
Seriously, wtf is that record. He plays at least one ATG in 10 straight US Opens, and beat at least one in 6 of those years.
