1088 US Wimbledon coverage
First viewed : 3 July 1994
This is only in here because I caught a snatch of it in my hotel room in Boston. It was actually just after the Men's Final had finished with Pete Sampras defeating Goran Ivanisevic, What I remember it for is John McEnroe's appearance with the commentary team. He was nothing like the urbane, assured pundit we see now. He looked like he'd just taken a line of cocaine and was bouncing up and down in his seat, this after a match widely criticised as a sterile big-serving duel. When Sampras arrived in the commentary box he too seemed disconcerted by the Mac's hyper-activity.
