Who player. Who reporter. What Slam.

Oh yeah I forgot that!! Years ago Borg refused to talk to Collins after being defeated by McEnroe for the Wimby crown. (Bud said that Borg smiled at him and said "John's the champion now) and gave a nice interview later in the day to NBC.

Phew TP that was 2007. Wonder what happened after the pasting of 2008 RG. Wonder if a men's world #1 in tennis got such a beatdown ever.
