    When there was a sport called tennis, the golden era. Edberg one of the best ever.

    The beauty of the one-handed backhand and serve/volley game.

    Thank you US Open Tennis Championships. 30 years on, still this is one of all-time classic Grand Slam finals. 2 of the most beautiful players, 2 of the greatest champions and 2 legends. Never get bored to watch them playing.

    Edberg's peak was the 1991 US Open, where he crushed Lendl, Chang and Courier, playing sublime serve-volley tennis. But his greatest performance was in 1992 when he survived 3 consecutive gruelling 5 setters against Krajicek, Lendl and Chang just to make it to the final here, where he dropped the opening set to Sampras and still came out on top.

    Stephen Edberg, my all-time favourite player to watch! Glides around the court, such quick reflexes at the net and a backhand that left an imprint in my brain. My wife and I watched a lot of his matches and she started subconsciously imitated his backhand that it became her best shot! Too bad she stopped playing since.

    Weird: watching those highlights you'd think Sampras won the match... 80% of the points shown were won by Pete.

    Best volley ever in TENNIS

    Now this is tennis, not the boring baseline exchanges we have today.

    Edberg all time favourite..that French open final loss in 89 still hurts

    Both were my favorite players. When they both played against each other like this, I couldn't decide who to root for..lol

  • @ahknabi

    Edberg GOAT at the net!

    As a player and coach when I watch Edberg I pick up on how he constantly moves forward to,close and cut off the next shot:on his volleys. If you’re going to win you got to close in. Unfortunately the volley has become a lost art in modern tennis. So many players are obsessed with running around their backhand to try and hit extreme topspin with a western or semi western grip.

  • @kiekaboo625

    Stefan Edberg. The best and most gracious volley specialist in the history of mankind. Especially his backhand volley is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.

    Edberg represented a style of tennis that was declining at the time, Sampras had a more brutal style, and that was in line with the way the sport developed. Today, you would get punished every single time for the kind of groundstrokes and approaches Edberg produced. His volleys however would still be world-class today.

    Absolutly fantastic. Sampras, Edberg, Agassi, Becker, ... were all one of a kind, wheras modern players are great athletes, but so uniform.

  • @TheMrBennito

    Highlights : all Sampras. Title : Edberg.

  • @johanf9279

    The guy editing this video must hate Edberg, showing mostly Sampras winning points.

    Edberg is one of the true legends of sports as a whole. And a national treasure of Sweden 🇸🇪 Wish I could be coached by him 🤗

    This was a real tennis, full of skills and touch, beautifully constructed points. This art has disappeared once they started to change all surfaces into a clay court paced courts, with all that new racquet and string technology. Now players just outhit each other.
