Jimmy Conners Rocked New York.







Twenty years ago, Jimmy Conners put on an electrifying 11 day performance at the US Open at the advanced tennis age of 39. Conners played the New York crowd like Eric Clayton plays guitar. I liked how Conners treated a tennis match like a battle that you spilled your guts to win. Conners was the Brett Favre of tennis, a gunslinger.
