Maybe it's McEnroe's expressions that capture the media's attention. After all, you can get a picture of: anyone swinging a racket but the only person that openly displays his emotions is McEnroe. From the TV report I saw that evening, "Super Brat" was up to his old.tricks which included yelling at the umpire and blaming errors on a person' yelling. I didn't catch whether this person was in the crowd or so- meone on the court, but McEnroe reverted back to a style that he had abandoned for a short time. A report in the Toronto Star states, "The calmness that has distinguished his on court personality recently has appeared to dull his reflexes, racket control and inspiration." This report was taken from the press wire and has the • place line at Wimbledon, England. I think anyone who follows tennis at all knows Mr. McEnroe's feeling towards the English press and vice versa. For those who don't, let's just say that they don't have the best working relationship. What I read into this sentence is they feel by being calm, he cannot play the game. Yet fhpv pro arelonf1 Oho r-rtnov who havo By Panne Plarejko ed his outbursts. Or Maybe they think that his calmness and "dulled reflexes" are the first signs .of boredom. Or maybe they're just trying to get Mr. McEnroe's feathers up., The newspaper report went on to say McEnroe was slow to react and displayed no imagination. It also states that he was "easy prey. ,for the thunderbolt serves of Kevin Curren." McEnroe made no excuses for his loss, stating, "He just overpowered me...It was a combination of me being off my game and him just wanting to win. Sounds reasonable to me, after all John McEnroe is human.
