In 1976, a young Swede named Bjorn Borg put a stranglehold on the Wimbledon men's singles title that proved unbreakable for the next five years. No one in the game's modern era had ever pulled it off and only one, Roger Federer, has subsequently matched it. The Golden Boy of Centre Court tells the story of that phenomenal sporting achievement.
For five incredible years from 1976 to 1980, Bjorn Borg ruled the men''s singles at Wimbledon by carrying off consecutive titles. It was a phenomenal feat, all the more so because it was achieved on the lawns of the All England Club when the young Swede was essentially a clay-court specialist. No player in tennis''s modern era had ever pulled it off and only one, Roger Federer, has subsequently matched it. Featuring vivid accounts of some of his most memorable matches, The Golden Boy of Centre Court tells the story of Borg''s entire Wimbledon odyssey - from his first appearance in 1972 (when he won the Junior title) to his last in 1981. It''s a journey that saw him evolve from a teeny-bopper heart-throb into a hero almost unanimously loved by the British tennis-watching public, and one of the greatest champions in the tournament''s long history.
