Bjorn Borg Returns to Competitive Tennis: Bjorn Borg will play competitive tennis in the United States for the first time in a decade at the Staples Champions Cup this week in Boston. If he beats Mikael Pernfors in the opening round Thursday, he'll meet the winner of a match between John McEnroe and Mats Wilander. "[McEnroe] has been trying to convince me to come for the last two or three years," Borg said.

At least they're not going to be five setters on clay. At their age, each match would take about nine hours to complete.

mr_crash_davis, my nose is currently stinging due to the hot tea I just forcibly expelled through it while explosively laughing. Thanks a lot.
