[Blog] National Tennis Careers - Part Two: Sweden

Good post El Dude, Borg and Edberg were two of my all faves... Stefan topping out as my all time fave, largely because I followed him from Junior Wimbledon into the pros.

I followed most of the top swedes in the 80s - Nystrom, Jarryd and Pernfors were also favourites. Wilander wasn't in that crew though... never could find any love to be honest. I always thought he batted way above his pay grade - but no doubt he was the one of the smartest on-court tacticians to ever pick up a racquet.

Pernfors spent too much time in Georgia; that southern drawl took over his Swedish accent! :angel: :dodgy: :snicker

How'd you guess? I've got it written, just being lazy about polishing and posting. And yeah, the future doesn't look so good.
