This is the second doubles video that you have shown from 1975. I hadn't remembered CBS showing that much early doubles. Well, I remember very little of their coverage that yeat before the last 2 days. Connors and Nastase won the title that year and it was the last year that Connors played doubles in this event. No chair umpire really is the dark ages. I also didn't remember Jack Whitaker doing play by play on tennis. What absolute gold this footage is.
Absolutely fantastic footage. Thanks for the upload.
Tennis didn’t have much tv coverage in those days. So this is a gem

OMG this is so good. "Nastase and Connors like to fool around...."
If I have time I might run an edit and lighten it just a bit. THANKS!
