Mac is an artist.
There are 7 or 8 points in the Mac-Connors 84’ USO semi final better than most of these points
yeah, I was thinking "give me 30 minutes on youtube and I can come up with 10 better points."
The usta videos are universally poor. Embarrassing really. There were better points even in the few matches they chose to use. I think they have some clueless intern make these - somebody with little knowledge of tennis - not just the specific subject matter but the game itself. “Wow!! McEnroe ran right into the net on that one and he hit it and won that point! “. Yeah… he does a point like that about 40 times a match….
They had a Michael stich career highlights one that was the worst I saw…. They didn’t even try on that one…..
100% well said, bravo
None against Lendl?
Yes + points vs Lendl (1984 and 1987) or Chang (1991). Nice points but not a real best of: you CANNOT be serious ^^
You know, the Tennis Authorities should amend the equipment rule book and depressurise the balls a tad bit. This will bring back the net-attacking, and serve and volley game back, and make tennis more interesting. It's quite boring to see Nadal and Djokovic going bom-bom groundstrokes all day long.
USO 2013 was THE desaster.
The problem is the players, not the balls.. or rackets.. or strings.
@@fundhund62 not only ... but quite sure , we live in a period where players are thinking that it is to tennis to adapt to themselves when for decades it was just the contrary.
sad times.
@@antoinev9733 good point.
It's the opposite, depressuring balls has killed serve & volley because with modern racquets there is too much advantage for baseline players against any brave net player. I think that serve & volley could be revived setting a limit on racket size, let's say 85, baseline players will be disadvantaged, top spins more difficult
Mac's cross-court back hand was just genius. Always
McEnroe is the master of touch no one on his level
Doubtful
it was another tennis.
i was fully sad to see it disappear
"Master of touch" is an overstatement,
U ever watched federer play ?
@@ariio138 LOOOOOOL how young are you :)))))
@@antoinev9733 cleary federer's level is far higher than what we see here with mcEnroe. Equipement, technique, work ethic improved a lot overtime. The level of tennis is far higher today, which is normal.
It is such a pleasure to watch McEnroe's shot play.
Pure 💎.people like McEnroe, Sampras, Federer used rackets as a wand !! 😇
federer the wiper ^^
The rackets Federer had were significantly different.
Il più grande
Johnny Mac was a wizard with a racket
Amazing John. Legend 🎾
Best hands in the business
John Mc...no words...
It´s amazing to see how much tennis changed from his matches in 1979 to his matches in 1992. He played in an era of fast transition and still he managed to be succesfull both against old-school players in the 70s and top-spin baseliners in the 90s. If you take Nadal, Djokovic, Federer... they have not seen that much change in tennis throughout their careers.
Magic!
The best of all times,i think
Mcenroe the goat the best
Haha appreciate your sarcasm however.
How did he hit that backhand like that! Amazing
McEnroe Is One/If Not The Greatest Volleyer Of All Time.
Nope. Edberg is the best volleyer of all time.
@@hymansahak181 😂
Hardly
@@hymansahak181 fully wrong .
weak forehand's volley.
Mac was the best .
@@antoinev9733 fully wromg.
weak forehand groun stroke; still great forehand volley.
Edberg best volleyer ever.
Mac best in escaping the gound stroke and gaining the net.
I was happy to see Borg hit a ball. Haven't seen any footage of him in 10+ years. Course. Started watching tennis in the late 70's, and McEnroe was THE most exciting player I've ever seen. The temper. The skill at going from rage to finesse player. He had power, but the 'touch' was why I say 'finesse.' Wow. Brings back memories. We have the 3 best players of all time, where they should be, but McEnroe was so divisive. I heard 4 people got heart attacks in Sweden from watching McEnroe/Borg at Wimbledon, one year.
Mac didn't have much power. He's a crafty left hander. Probably couldn't hit a serve past 110mph on a good day but backed it with great hands at the net and great disguise and serve placement. Let's debunk all the myths. Lol
@@willkittwkas you said ... probably. In fact we quitte dont know. But mainly, power for à server volleyer is clearly not a quality ;)
Legend
The most talented of his time.
John left hand is magnificent and outstanding
And those are the highlights?
He read ur mind and gambled where you were going to hit. Pure genius we watched amazed. They were blasting it in 1984 1985. Saw Mac destroy prime Edberg at the great Western forum. Obliterated him. Even Edberg was amazed with Mac's volleys. Same year young Sampras played nobody had any idea.
‘87 USO v. Lendl had a terrific point in there too.
Not even close to his best of us open. Could name 10 totally different and better shots. 1984 semi and final had so many. 1985 semi vs wilander had a ton. Zvojunovic 1987, Chang 1992. Lazy stuff.
It’s always like this with this channel. Their editors are clueless and don’t put the work in. Usually of 10 points they pick, about 8 are good but pedestrian and maybe 2 are excellent but not among the absolute best….
Only true tennis genius !
A bit surprised at some of these choices. The Lendl clip was a 'meat and potatoes' point in Macs repetoire. Sure Lendl had a pwerhouse forehand and was a great rival but maybe the 1987 point against Lendl where Mac does a 180 spin around and 'feels' the ball reverse crosscourt? Quite a few 'emergency' lunge volleys ( fromberg) or desperate flicks ( v Sampras ) that were impressive but Mac was reknowned for his great hands so I was expecting at least one of those drop volleys and touch shots. Still, it's always great to see clips of the master
Agree, that one is a masterpiece!!
Mac was always angry. If it wasn't the ref, it was the crowd noise or his racket refused to listen. Still my 1st tennis
hero
At the time people were laughing at him, not with him. The only reason people now tolerate him is because Connors was a far nastier human being.
I've been on a classic McEnroe youtube kick, i think i've watched pretty much every video out there. I started watching tennis at the tail end of the classic Borg / McEnroe rivalry. Maybe it's just me but nothing does it for me like watching classic clash of style baseline vs. serve and volley with wooden rackets. McEnroe was a maestro. Each player seemed to have personalty.
Now it just seems like a bunch of running from baseline to baseline hitting the same shot over and over again for hours.
I really do feel like something was lost from the beauty of the game with the switch to the large head widebody rackets made of materials other than wood.
I can't remember where, but in one McEnroe interview he makes an interesting and salient point: in baseball they moved to aluminum bats for youth baseball and people learning the game but kept the wooden bats for the pros. Tennis should have done the same. It's a lesser game now. You really had to know how to use touch and finesse and had to hit the ball better with the smaller sweet spot of the wooden racket.
You left out 2 great rallies from 1987. One against Zivojinovic and also the next match against Lendl!
Ha giocato molti punti più belli di questo filmato.
It was so slow back then
Genial
Mac’s hands are magic! If he wasn’t a tennis player, he would’ve made one hell of a Catholic priest.
Haha. Good one
Of these the Sampras and Borg and Connors are clearly the best.
I am Japanese , so , can use little english.
McEnroe's touch will make more amazing shot at storoke than volley.
Volley have "2" pattern , 1:strong and angular 2.drop
But storoke have many pattern than volley.
And , most of McEnroe's strokes are flat , so , will need detailed touch.
Just one time I want to see Feds Nadal Djok do an exhibition using wooden racquets. Just to see...
everytimes i am thinking of this ... i laugh :)))
It was strange to see the last point (rated #1) with Bjorn attacking the net and John content to just hang back. Didn't even do much with the overhead (gasp!).
this belongs in the Top 10 Worst Tennis Compilations. This should be called "Collection of Good Passing Shots Against Connors and Misc Volleys McEnroe Hit All the Time." Where are the miraculous shoe-top volleys? Where's the legendary run-around-the-ball-and-pass against Lendl at Flushing? This is just random Mac points. Might as well put in the forehand volley against Nole when he came out of the booth to hack around.
you will find RG84 final full match on Yout' :)
just pain and joy, hope and desesparation .... full life ! :)
@@antoinev9733 omg that missed volley
@@sayresrudy2644 yes ! that close ! :'(((
As a great Mcfan, it was the day lendl obtained my full respect ^^^
@@antoinev9733 could have won a calendar slam 😢
@@sayresrudy2644 Mcenroe don't need any number or record
... he is Bigmac ;)
I'm still waiting for the MASTER CLASS by John McEnroe.
U probz never be satisfied then shots were pure class
better caption: ten random points that John McEnroe won
The only ones who missed the shots were the cameramen (or should I say the director/producer)!!!
What’s missing is some of those baseline rallies with Borg
That last point, vs Borg, was awesome.
Actually think I liked #3 the best.
Johnny Mac!
Otro tenis. Menos potencia pero más clase y estilo.
Some hits and misses here. There were numerous better points from the 1981 Final against Borg that aren't shown.
Whatever happened to Fromberg?
FromBerg to Borg
Ironically in this top ten of d gr8est servenvolley champ, most of the winners r from baseline. Good selection tho :-)
The point is, John is really good at tennis. That's just a fact.
No winners against Lendl ?
1:17
This is so ordinary
yess we see that every match today ! :))))
In basketball, everyone wants the 3pointer. In tennis every one wants to hit hard from baseline. No more art and kraft.
Funny thing is that at the rec level, in both sports, these players are the "better" players in the eyes of most. Thing is, they know how to shoot, or hit the ball well, but they don't necessarily play well. Key difference.
Btw...no favorite here. I just try to use pieces from every player: touch (Mac), sharp (Edberg), approach (Connors/Laver), blocks (Boris), overhead (Laver)
Boy has the game moved to slow compared to modern era, no wonder they slowed the courts down
McEnroe is the only leftie with a one-handed backhand that I know of.
Shapovalov
Rod Laver, Feliciano Lopez, Michael Llodra, Guillermo Vilas, Henri Leconte, Guy Forget
Thomas Muster
I said THAT I KNOW OF. ;-)
@@omegamale7880 🤣🤣🤣
Surely he has better points than this. Those were good passing shots but nothing spectacular
#'s 7 & 6 were kind of "ho-hum". Nice, but pedestrian by Mac standards.
Looks a bit like women's tennis compared to today
sure !! actual women'stennis is mainly a volley game :))))))
Pretty bad list...no Mc lendl 87 on an amazing pt?
Considering he was using a piece of wood...
こりゃマズイ。今のトップ100全員がマッケンロー並かそれ以上にタッチが良いことが明らかになってしまっとる。
Omg. I would prefer to watch whatever than a full game of this level of tennis...they were players ahead of their time but it is quite boring
No McEnroe v Chang? You can go now 👎
Nothing from Wimbledon
it is just about ... USO !!
Get real. All those points are good but not amazing. Any D1 college player could do each and every one. To think otherwise you don't know shit about tennis. Thing is McEnroe could do them repeatedly. Stretch volley was nice but thousands of players do it on courts everyday. Cross court pass on a short nothing ball BFD.
This is really a poor representation of his best points. So many are pretty average.
pesima seleccion... muy vago para buscar buenos puntos.... hubo cientos de mejores puntos que no estuvieron
I’m annoyed I watched that.
Pretty poor selection 🙄
El big three hubiese derrotado facilmente a este sobrevalorado tenista..
Not even remotely the best points.
what a disgusting role model for the young players of today....he should be ashamed of himself; but he's not because of what he is
he was ashamed and has discussed this a lot and made amends
I agree. He embarrassed himself and the US
: said the role model ^^^^
McEnroe was a drug user. Not really a big fan of his.
Me either. He was such a whiner and cringy.
as agassi ..., ... , ...
and you think that tennis is "clean" today ??
" you can't be serious !" ;)
The music sucks!
Average. Today’s players would squash Mac.
Just as Einstein would squash Newton. Every era has its own heroes
@@ManOnJupiter2
Einstein doesn’t even come close to Newton.
@@hymansahak181 true, it doesn't come close to him
Give Nadal and Djokovic an 80s racket and they probably wouldn't win a set against McEnroe.
Seriously. The play was so much slower then
This crap is the best they could come up with in all his matches?
It's a paradox,but Big Mac was also the most silent player of the history,moved like a cat,hit clean ....
