If you are a follower of Tennis, you will realize that a lot of changes have occurred since the great days of 30 years ago. The racquets are a lot different for starters, and the style of playing has altered dramatically.

Why don’t we just go back to the Eighties for a moment and try to remember some of the great Tennis players that showed us their talents back then.

The 1980’s has to be synonymous with undoubtedly the greatest ever player to have graced the Tennis courts, that is until his retirement at an early age. This could only be the one and only Bjorn Borg.

Another great Swede to entertain us all on the Tennis courts had to be none other that Stefan Edberg. This man could serve and volley for fun, and it was this talent that eventually got him to the number one spot in Tennis, but that was more to the end of the Eighties.

Another excellent player of the Decade had to be the German Maestro, none other than Boris Becker. Another great talent who is probably best remembered for his Wimbledon win when he was only a teenager.

Then there was the Great Czech, Ivan Lendl. Lendl won a few grand slams and quite a few more tournaments in his time, but his baseline play was probably his greatest feature.

I suppose the most memorable player of the Eighties had to be the American bad boy, John McEnroe. Not only was he a brilliant player at singles but he was a mean doubles player as well, and when things did not go all his own way, he always used to shout at the line judges “you cannot be serious, the ball was in!” – unforgettable and fun.

All of these played a major contribution to Tennis in the Eighties, along with many others, but when I think of Eighties Tennis, these are the ones I remember the most.

Besides Tennis, the writer also frequently pens articles on cheap ATV tires and golf cart supplies.
