Borg was my sports hero as a teenager growing up in South Florida. I loved tennis. It became my best sport. I owe a lot of the love for the sport to two guys who are known by their last names: Borg and McEnroe.
Borg in particular was one of the greatest pressure players I have ever watched. He retired at 26 with five Wimbleton titles. I don't think the sport has seen a player of his quality, with the possible exception of Pete Sampras. If Borg had put in another 10 years, there is no telling how many grand slams he would have won.
