US Open Throwback - Stefan Edberg
Listen now
Description
In the new episode we take a look back at Stefan Edberg's twin titles in New York. Hall of famer Steve Flink and noted tennis historian Richard Evans join host Saqib Ali to remember the Edberg years in Flushing Meadows. It was not exactly love at first sight between Edberg and New York. Like many european players Edberg struggled to find his rhythm in the last major of the year. This episode focuses on his ups and downs at the US Open under the watchful tutelage of Toni Pickard. Flink and Evans have covered professional tennis for over five decades and this collaboration on Edberg's 1992 title run is a great exercise to revisit one of the most glorious runs at a major by any man or woman. https://www.amazon.com/Roving-Eye-Reporters-Affair-Politics/dp/1911525476 https://www.amazon.com/Pete-Sampras-Greatness-Steve-Flink/dp/1937559947/ref=sr_1_1?hvadid=459596990810&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9001898&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=1056640162825321807&hvtargid=kwd-943651217959&hydadcr=5344_9615667&keywords=pete+sampras+greatness+revisited&qid=1692715857&sr=8-1
