I truly believe the most devastating loss in Lendl’s career was the 89 French fourth round loss against Chang. Lendl dominated the clay court season that year (as always) on top of the first 5 months in 89 and there was really nobody to get in his way to win that French title. Had Lendl won the French that year, it would have given him an extra boost for the ladder part of his career. Lendl’s second and third most devastating losses came later that summer at the Wimbledon semifinals against Becker (where he had Becker on the hook before the rains came and changed the outcome of the match) and again against Becker at the US Open final where Lendl’s confidence was shattered from what happened earlier that year at the French and Wimbledon. That Chang loss really had Lendl questioning himself despite playing in my opinion during 89 the best tennis he had ever played in his life evidenced by all the tournaments he won which was an achievement in itself.
The Chang match was a case of history repeating itself. 7 years earlier in 1982, Lendl had a virtually identical loss at the French Open to another unheralded 17 year old, Mats Wilander. Chang played almost identically to how Wilander played Lendl that day. Hypnotising Lendl with long heavy topspin rallies. In both matches, Lendl seemed to think his younger opponent would just collapse. I think 1988 was really a worse for Lendl than 1989. Hampered by injury and failing to win a grand slam for the first time since 1983, indeed, only reaching one grand slam final. 1989 was in many ways a much better year. He reached the final of 2 grand slams, winning the Australian Open for the first time, played the best tennis he ever played at Wimbledon, got to the final of the US Open but was unlucky in both cases to run into Boris Becker having the best year of his career.
Lendl is such a classic player. He hits it so clean and textbook like. If you want to teach a kid on how to play tennis, just show him a couple of Lendl tapes and you're set
Glad you liked the video. Yea, I wish more tennis today was shot at the camera angles used here. Check out the full quarterfinal match between Agassi and Krickstein, you may like it as well: th-cam.com/video/C3u8QDax5oc/w-d-xo.html
Just smart tennis by Lendl. Phenomenal ball placement, quality serving, and he wasn’t hitting the ball crazy hard, and he really had some good forehand shots. He had just won Australia so he was playing good
Lendl was on a different level....Agassi hadn't learned to place the serve,he basically just wanted to start the point like Nadal early on...but hitting the ball on the rise would benefit him later on to win on all surface,also Agassi later on his carrier became the ultimate student of the game,and percenage player like Lendl was at that time
You are absolutely right. The telecasting/filming of tennis has bee stuck to the same bird eye view for decades. Many aspects of the game do not show. Why cannot they do better? With the modern equipment, it would not be difficult to at least add some variation, some points on player level, some from a diagonal angle etc. You rarely even see versatile angle slo-mos like the one of Lendl’s serve at 12:00. (Even no one in the live audience sees the match from the view of a usual broadcast, except maybe on the upmost seats of end sides on very few oversized arenas.)
totally agree. Lendl is hitting like hell from wings..look at the spin he is getting from his top spin backhand. who said they were not good n striker of ball. lendl any day.
Lendl is a legend. He was the first "modern" tennis player and took the sport to a new level in terms of fitness and could hit through net players with his amazing technqiue etc. He was the best striker of the ball in tennis until Federer.
Well spotted. In addition his strokes off both wings were things of beauty although his footwork on his backhand would contribute heavily to his back problems. A great but under-appreciated champion. Cheers!
You can feel the heft of Lendl's shots just watching the video. Imagine feeling it on your racquet. The only difference between the Lendl generation and now is that modern players move much faster on the court.
Agassi is wearing tracksuit pants at the start of this match. It looks weird but he is simply keeping warm. Thanks for the upload. Two absolute legend of the sport. Where is the rest of the match? I will search around for it. The telecast is very enjoyable. Great low camera angle to show the speed of the game and player movement.
RON Taylor - no question Conners and Federer the top 2. Lendl???maybe I was watching someone I thought was Lendl. He never was a great ball stricker. What he was best at was being boring, as in very.
I'm old enough to remember Lendl and Agassi playing, but somehow I didn't remember a tennis player ever wearing long pants during a game. Wow. Those must have been some really comfy pants.
He got credit early in his career, when keen observers could see his quickness, but by 1995, though fit and still fast, he had lost a step of his early quickness....and then by 2000 he had lost a few steps compared to his 20 year old self. His career went so long that he tends to be remembered for his post 2000 play, where he was much slower laterally than he had been - though his experience and game were still such that he could play with the best of the youngsters.
I followed Agassi's entire career. I always felt his greatest gifts were his vision and anticipation. He was not slow by any means but not among the fastest of all time or even of his era. When you have the vision and anticipation for where the ball is going, it more than makes up for what you lack in foot speed.
Lendl definitely, but Agassi wasn't particularly unfortunate in slam finals... maybe against Courier in the 1991 French Open... otherwise he lost the other slam finals pretty convincingly

As tennis was supposed to be in the 1980s.I wasnt into Tennis at that time like Today. My interest in Tennis came about in the early 2000s. I have to adjust to the regiments of the ATP Tour.
Watching Agassi play with sweat pants on was about as funny as watching Jordan participate in the 1985 dunk contest with sweatpants and gold chains on.
One guy plays with an 80-85 sq.in racquet, the other guy plays with a 105sq.in racquet. Thats a huge difference.. If Sampras did what Federer did earlier in his career, he would extended and win some more..
Lendl played his whole career with a 75 and he won here versus a 105 6-2, 6-3. Maybe larger racquets are overrated? Lendl and Borg both hit heavy topspin with 75's. Sampras claimed he could have extended his career but he doesn't really know that. He did have arm issues and oversized is easier on the arm. But the additional power is meaningless for someone like Sampras who used a 14 ounce racquet and if anything had too much power. Also he didn't have any issue with mishits.
Thanks for posting this. I've been looking for old Agassi videos, from the 1980's. Does anyone have the 1986 or 1987 video of him playing at Stratton Mountain, Vermont? Agassi vs McEnroe (1986). Agassi vs Mayotte (86). Agassi vs Cash (87)???
I always get tricked by different generations players . In my mind Agassi is a next -level player compared to Lendl but then I see that Lendl kicked his ass several times - Same way I see Lendl as a much more modern player compared to Borg but then I see that actually Borg kicked Lendl's ass many many times before quitting tennis .
Not quite sure that's necessarily the best comparison tho. Yes, Lendl beat Agassi the six first times they played, but that was in 1987-89, Agassi was 17-19yrs old at the time, just starting out on the tour and still just a kid, Lendl was 27-29 and at the top of his game - won the French and US Open in 87, Finals of the US open in 88, won Aus open and finals of US open in 89 and won Australia in 1990. The last two times they played, Agassi beat Lendl pretty handily. Peak Agassi beats peak Lendl 8 times out of 10.
Agassi had a tough time against hard hitting base liners with an attitude. Check his record against Courier. He had the wood on Becker for some reason though...
Wow, you can see Agassi's hair is already going here. The fluffiness hides it somewhat, but it's already receding. Guess that's why he started playing in a cap for several years.
Synthetic green clay. There used to be several events in U.S. played on green clay back in the '80s/early 90's. The WTA event in Charleston is still played on it.
TLC Lendl is physically bigger, and very strong. Given the same equipment it's foolish to say that Federer would win either way. The surface would matter a lot. If they played at the French Open lendle would have a very good chance of winning.
MrPernell27 Phisically Federer had a better training regime to cope with the new pace of the game. Technically he can hit with any racquet better and faster than Lendl. The spin, power and the pace he can generate would be too much for Lendl. Not just Federer but any pro player today can hit harder than Lendl with his own racquet.
So much unconventionalism by Agassi here (compared to today, anyway). You’ve got the super mullet; wearing long pants that later became his famous jorts looks; he’s serving from the corner(!) in the Ad Court; he was an American teen ranked in the top 10! How many of these do you see today?
Yea, even though the average level of play is much higher today, there was a lot more variation back in the day. Even just among baseliners. Andre is wearing the warm up pants here because it's a cold day(about 50deg F). He's got on the jorts underneath. You may want to check out the quarterfinal match as well: th-cam.com/video/C3u8QDax5oc/w-d-xo.html
This surface is Har Tru synthetic clay. I've never played on it, but my understanding is that is faster than natural clay. It's still used for the WTA Charleston tournament. One fun thing about this era is that tournaments used many more varied surfaces, like synthetic clay, fast grass, and indoor carpet.
Hey all you tennis judges. Lendl owns a young pup punk agassi. But if lendl played the reborn shaved hair agassi from 94 to 2000. Agassi would have owned lendl.
Lendl aurait dû gagné Roland Garros 89 très facilement. ..au vu de sa forme printanière,le titre parisien ne pouvait pas lui échapper. ...il aurait dû battre très facilement Chang,Agenor et Chesnokov avant sa finale face à Edberg. ..le tchécoslovaque aurait sans doute écrasé Edberg
for anyone wondering Agassi finally took his pants off after the third game. It turns out he was just embarrassed about his denim shorts. His mom made him wear them

Lendl really became the ultimate percentage player. Never going for anything flashy or extravagant unless he had to. It won him so many matches.
u spelled djokovic wrong
Agassi's serve got soooo much better over the years.
i was a kid back then and everyone wanted to be like Agassi
Just smart tennis by Lendl. Phenomenal ball placement, quality serving, and he wasn’t hitting the ball crazy hard, and he really had some good forehand shots. He had just won Australia so he was playing good
Lendl's serve and backhand look so smooth nd powerful. I wish more pros copy those shots..
Even after all these years the beauty of Andre Agassi in his late teens is breathtaking.
Are you a woman? I don't see much beauty there, just a lot of hair.
Lendl was on a different level....Agassi hadn't learned to place the serve,he basically just wanted to start the point like Nadal early on...but hitting the ball on the rise would benefit him later on to win on all surface,also Agassi later on his carrier became the ultimate student of the game,and percenage player like Lendl was at that time
Lendl always looked like he has so much time on the ball, great serve and groundstrokes, lots of topspin on that backhand.
Good to hear Arthur Ashe commentating. R.I.P.

Great camera angle. All tennis matches should be filmed at this angle and elevation. Most are filmed way too high and far away!
You are absolutely right.
The telecasting/filming of tennis has bee stuck to the same bird eye view for decades. Many aspects of the game do not show.
Why cannot they do better? With the modern equipment, it would not be difficult to at least add some variation, some points on player level, some from a diagonal angle etc. You rarely even see versatile angle slo-mos like the one of Lendl’s serve at 12:00.

completely agree
Unfortunately matches are filmed for viewers with little knowledge.
It's like you are hitting the shots with the player..A great angle that is no longer
Good call.
Lendl was on a high plateau at this time. And most people don’t realize how important the percentage of first service is!
Thank you for posting this , I played againts him just years before................... he kicked my ass.
I'm very impressed by the skill. They strike very hard and fast. Who said game was slow in the 80's!!??
totally agree. Lendl is hitting like hell from wings..look at the spin he is getting from his top spin backhand. who said they were not good n striker of ball. lendl any day.
This was late-80's.... racquet technology advances... then later, the huge string tech changes....
who said the game was slow in the 80s? I did. Watch McEnroe vs Vilas Pepsi Grand Slam.
Lendl is a legend. He was the first "modern" tennis player and took the sport to a new level in terms of fitness and could hit through net players with his amazing technqiue etc. He was the best striker of the ball in tennis until Federer.

The player who tailored his groundstrokes after Lendl was Pete Sampras, another player with a powerful forehand and solid topspin backhand.
Rock that mullet Andre!
The USO used to be played on this very court.
You can feel the heft of Lendl's shots just watching the video. Imagine feeling it on your racquet. The only difference between the Lendl generation and now is that modern players move much faster on the court.
Agassi backhand was always the shot.

Lendl???maybe I was watching someone I thought was Lendl. He never was a great ball stricker. What he was best at was being boring, as in very.
Agassi was obviously off to an audition for Miami Vice after the match
Know your movies son. He went for an audition for Lethal Weapon.
He'd already been but was out-mulleted by Mel Gibson.

I never saw a tennis player rock pants during a professional match ever lol! Figures it would be Andre.* [stefblack.com]

Nick Dinsmore You're so right...oh well lol.*
back when we played in the 1940s pants were commonplace, although the ones we donned were always white.
I saw Lendl play a doubles match with a tracksuit on (World Team Cup 1984). Lendl won alongside Smid against Edberg/ Jarryd!
i remember Hrbaty doing the same in the late 90s/early 2000s. It's rare but its happened.
in all the years I have never seen Lenl smile......
Lendl au top de sa forme en mai 1989 avec ses victoires à forest hill et hambourg...
Lendl put plenty of heat on the ball and had very few errors. I think he even hit an inside out forehand.
Lendl had all the shots..
I'm old enough to remember Lendl and Agassi playing, but somehow I didn't remember a tennis player ever wearing long pants during a game. Wow. Those must have been some really comfy pants.
Agassi doesn't get enough credit for his running abilities. He could run like a deer and he covered the court very well.
He got credit early in his career, when keen observers could see his quickness, but by 1995, though fit and still fast, he had lost a step of his early quickness....and then by 2000 he had lost a few steps compared to his 20 year old self. His career went so long that he tends to be remembered for his post 2000 play, where he was much slower laterally than he had been - though his experience and game were still such that he could play with the best of the youngsters.
Jeffrey Haefner And in long pants too. Who wears long pants?
great moves...brillant foot work....cooordination
I followed Agassi's entire career. I always felt his greatest gifts were his vision and anticipation. He was not slow by any means but not among the fastest of all time or even of his era. When you have the vision and anticipation for where the ball is going, it more than makes up for what you lack in foot speed.
Yeah, here he was fast. But in 2005 he was slow like a turtle.

the first time I had ever heard of him was when he played on espn at SM in 1987. Never saw anyone strike the ball quite like him.
Interesting that in his early career, Agassi was primarily thought of as a clay court player.

Agassi had a tough time against hard hitting base liners with an attitude. Check his record against Courier. He had the wood on Becker for some reason though...
Who won this match anyway?
Wow, you can see Agassi's hair is already going here. The fluffiness hides it somewhat, but it's already receding. Guess that's why he started playing in a cap for several years.
+KingKaitain If you read his bio, "Open", he actually wore a wig under the cap. He won Wimbledon like that LOL!
+joydivsion77 I've read it twice! Very entertaining.

Agassi's long hair, long pants look. Well, he might have had a chance at keeping the pants.
I wish I could hit the ball that cleanly.
What surface is this?
Synthetic green clay. There used to be several events in U.S. played on green clay back in the '80s/early 90's. The WTA event in Charleston is still played on it.
Har-Tru Green Clay.
Agassi avait une super coupe de tenancier de bar yougoslave
This is how a legend looks even when they are young..Agassi..this next gen flops will kill tennis once Fed, Rafa and Djokovic are gone
Yes, it will die then come back again stronger than ever in the years following it's death
Forest hills...i suppose this is the same place where the US Open used to be played till 1978
Exactly: newyork.cbslocal.com/2016/02/19/world-team-tennis-forest-hills-stadium/
This is the first time I ak seeing someone playing professional tennis match with pants on
Tennis players used to wear pants in the early days.
That's right.
Would love to see prime Lendl vs prime Federer at the US Open
Ohhhhhhhh....that would be a dream match! Lendl hitting with the technology in today's racquets against Federer would make my day!
try Nadal vs. Agassi at their prime ! mind blown
Federer would win either way. It's not about the technology only. Everything has evolved.
TLC Lendl is physically bigger, and very strong. Given the same equipment it's foolish to say that Federer would win either way. The surface would matter a lot. If they played at the French Open lendle would have a very good chance of winning.
MrPernell27 Phisically Federer had a better training regime to cope with the new pace of the game.
Technically he can hit with any racquet better and faster than Lendl. The spin, power and the pace he can generate would be too much for Lendl.
Not just Federer but any pro player today can hit harder than Lendl with his own racquet.
when I watch lendl I see sampras and federer but the later ones in turbo mode.
En este torneo Agassi venció a Izaga en semifinales.
That mullet.
Those pants
"forehand and a haircut" lol

Pants on a tennis court were conventional from the 1880's to WWII, roughly.
