Bjorn Borg was steel, absolute steel. He was stone cold before Stone Cold. You could feel his resolve through the TV screen. I never once saw him show indecision. He was incredibly poised, stoic, always respected the game, a quiet assassin. There was not one single frivolity in his game. He was a champion's champion.

I'm so glad they paired Roger and Bjorn together for this. Two of the most elegant tennis players.

BORG : ABSOLUTE LEGEND !!!

Bjorn was the first rock star athlete ever. He really is the king.

Nice to see Bjorn smiling and laughing.

Bjorn's and Roger's passion for the sport is *inspiring*

Federer is sooo funny such a nice Guy love him

The fact that Borg could consistently generate so much topspin with a heavy wooden racquet is incredible. People take the technology we have today for granted.

"The King, and you know it." I can't imagine higher praise

roger laughs at everything lol he can't contain that AND I LOVE IT

For me the love for tennis began with Bjorn Borg. What a sensational player he was. Love from Pakistan ❤️

My two favorite tennis players in history. I loved Bjorn so much that my nickname was Bjorn throughout high school.

the smile on Federer is so genuine u can see the glimmer in his eyes

Roger displaying a lot of respect sure shows his huge knowledge for the game.

Young people cannot understand what an incredible charisma and aura Borg had.

Bjorn and Roger, my two favorite players of all time. I remember seeing Bjorn play at the Longwood Country Club in Boston (Chestnut Hill) in the mid 70s. I think it was called the US Pro Championships, on clay. My tennis buddies and I didn't have tickets so we hopped the fence and got caught by a security guard. This guard was so cool, and he could tell we were huge Borg fans with our long flowing Borg locks, so he let us go in. We ended up sitting on these bleacher seats right behind Bjorn , and it was amazing, and I'll never forget. No one was cooler than Bjorn Borg.

Borg's achievement of winning on super fast Wimbledon and super slow Roland Garros, by completely changing his style of play just a few weeks between them, it's unmatchable and one of the greatest feats ever in any sport. He did it 3 times, and won 6 Roland Garros and 5 Wimbledon in total. Unbelievable. That and Agassi's win in Wimbledon by playing in the baseline only would be the pinnacle of the sport.

Look at Bjorn. He looks friggin' great.

Obviously their great senses of humor stood out for me. They were both having a good time- Tim too.

What a great chat! Federer is always smiling, so likable. Borg is so talkative, im surprised. And .. Tim Henman is such a great gentleman.

Borg, was my first sporting hero...and it was the greatest privilege for me to see Borg, during his prime...I think there's never been anyone like him...

Borg. Extreme topspin with a wooden donnay raquet. My inspiration.

Thats why I love tennis. It has great ambassadors that have elevated it into an art.

Roger Federer, BBorg Best players all time Forever Thank you for this video

I haven't heard Borg talk until this interview compared to laver cups

We miss you Roger! All the best with healing of your knees. Hugs from South Africa, Cape Town.

Bjorn is such a legend....

Henman had 6-1 against Federer upon til the Indian wells final 2004. Federer won 6-3 6-3 in that match. They went on to play five more matches and Henman did not win another set with Federer eventually having 7-6 in total. Federer improvement from 2003-2004 was crazy good

It is beyond charming and inspiring the natural respect and the grace in wich Federer interacts with the great players from the past, is not only the true knowledge of their games and carreers, but also the way he put them first and make them feel like they are the most important person in the room. Great conversation among two icons, and great job as interventor for Henman.

2:31. That match is on UKposts. I couldn´t believe Borg receiving 2 penalty points. Bjorn just stayed at the side of the umpire, he didn´t say anything for a long time. The umpire said it was game delay. The most incredible thing was, that in the second set, the umpire called out one Borg´s first serve, (it was clearly on the line). Then Bjorn served his second serve, it was in, and Mcenroe intentionally hit it way out of the court, giving Borg the point. Incredible, but Mcenroe behaved like a gentleman.

My two favorites of all time!

Borg and Federer,true champions.Different tennis games,but eerily similar mindsets.............They never got flustered,never lost their temper,they never mouthed off or ranted and raved.You could never read them.Bjorn was the "Iceborg",a veritable brick wall with no weaknesses.Roger was unflappable.Whether they won or lost the last point they treated it the same way.........as ancient history,and got on with the next point.Legends of the game.

Borg and McEnroe was always high drama. They both pushed each other to play their best.

The two players with the most beautiful game in the history of tennis.

Bjorn still looks so good in short hair! Tennis has so many iconic players since the last 50 years.

I mean .. both Borg & Fed .. I mean ... am I dreaming ✨ ( 31 Slams & counting ) Big fan of both 🎾❤️

Roger and Borg are too cute together. Tim is fantastic too. We miss you Roger...please come back stronger and win big again. Only you look good holding the winners trophy.

These 2 are my favourites on the men's side, it's thrilling to see them interviewed together. I grew up watching Bjorn, I loved his coolness under pressure on the court. Roger's the same, I just so admire their mental strength & composure.

great job Tim henman. First the interview with sampras and djokovic and now with federer and borg. Your became and deserve the honor wimbledon title. Next interview nadal and agassi please:)

Two amazing Champions. Both Class Acts, modest, and great to listen to them talk.

I can listen to all these conversations all day long... a bunch of legends 🤙👌

Reminder that Borg retired when he was 26 The titles he won during that time is crazy

I love Federer, but You Bjorn were my favorite player in your time. Why? Because you are both Gentlemen and always showed respect for the Game. No nonsense!!!

Bjorn is a very humble man

Borg and Federer are special because they are part of a tiny group of players that have transcended the Sport. Both players are known universally outside of the tennis circle. Both players inspired tens of millions of people to pick up a tennis racquet and try the sport. This is their biggest contribution to the Game. Arguably the 1980 Borg v McEnroe Wimbledon Final and the 2008 Federer v Nadal Wimbledon Final are the two greatest Professional Tennis Matches ever played.

Had to click right away when I saw the title. Two all time greats and gentlemen.

Federer and bjorn borg in same screen is a tennis fan's delight

The best episode so far.

Awesome chat. As a Swedish kid living in Australia back in the '70's, whenever a Bjorn Borg match was live on tv it was a must watch, even though it was usually middle of the night there. How many players adopted double handed backhands from watching Borg I wonder?

Roger and Bjorn are very funny!! Great interview!!

Finally the champion chat I was looking after, Federer

Great two. Awesome listening to the giants

I'll talk when I want to talk is one of my favorite Federer moments lol

I'm not surprised that the most impressive aspect of Federer's game which no one ever mentions because they either(1)fail completely to notice it or (2) notice it but fail to recognize its' significance, is Federer's uncanny ability unlike 99.9% of other tennis players to keeps his eyes down, looking at the point of contact of the racket head with the tennis ball THROUGH the follow-through on a forehand or backhand! That enables Federer to have the incredible consistency on his forehand and backhand (especially on passing shots) compared to other players (even other great players). Either Federer had that ability naturally from the start or he learned to do that through tremendous, disciplined practice.

Could not have thought of a better duo for this interviewwww

I miss you Roger, see you in AO 💙 Mi favorite.

My two fav players. I loved Borg since day one!

Such genuine good spirited individuals , you can really feel it through their personas .

Borg is one of my alltime favourites. It's amazing to see these two players who appear so contained & emotionally neutral on the court be so relaxed & disarming & fun in an interview. Tim is great at these interviews, he's really good at keeping the conversation going.

Bjorn you are the best tennis player the world has ever seen

Bjorn Borg my Hero in Tennis !!

Bjorn y Roger son 2 tenistas más de los más de los tiempos 😊 !!!!!

Borg's phenomenal level on courts of all speeds is what I find most impressive. 5 consecutive Wimbledon titles on fast, low-bouncing grass and 6 wins on the slow, high-bouncing clay of Roland Garros. 3 consecutive French Open-Wimbledon doubles is one of the all-time great achievements. His weakest Major (considering he played the Australian only once) was really the US Open with 4 finals, losing to two other greats McEnroe and Connors twice each. He only ever played 4 Majors on hard and reached the final of 3 of them. By comparison, it took Federer and Nadal until their 11th Major on clay and hard respectively to win one and Sampras played 13 Majors on clay, reaching only one semi. His 22 titles on carpet also show his ability on fast courts. He had 3 years where he reached 3 Majors finals out of 3 played. The only reason his number of weeks at #1 is so low is due to the poor system. He was voted ATP Player of the Year for 3 years that he did not end as #1.

Two of the classiest acts in sport - gentlemen both. Long may you be spared to us!

Two absolute wonderful human beings

I have nothing but respect for the best and the best of tennis. Others may beat their numbers but no one has brought more to the game of tennis. No one has been adored and loved as much as these two greats.

Borg, McEnroe, Lendl, Connors was the greatest era in men's tennis. Anyone who disagrees hasn't lived it, doesn't know the history, or doesn't know tennis at all.

Borg was incredible. If you are old like me I remember watching him in the Superstars competition. He was incredible. If I remember correctly they said his resting heart beat was 39bpm. I also remember watching Joe Frazier almost drown in a swimming event. He jumped in the pool and sunk like a rock. All muscle!!

Roger can make any discussion funny

The 2 greatest champions of all time.

I know Sampras had the most Slams of his era, but I like Borg the best, the same way I will like Roger the best even though the Big 3 era will probably end with him second or third. The natural talent, the pure level of tennis, the elegance, skill, pure joy to watch, the winning mentality. Amazing stuff.

Bjorn picked the same shot I would have picked. Roger's slice is nasty.

My fellow Swede Borg!

I love the way they laugh on the past Bjorn in Federer's words carried him self so professionally and was like a rock star. How fortunate we are to loving this great game called Tennis thank you Tim .

Bjorn litteraly invented the open stance forehand so that should be the compulsory answer to the question " what shot..." His open stance was a revolution that opened the way to modern tennis. On a different level, he wasn't the first but the ONLY one to achieve rockstar status. Girls were screaming , screeching and waiting underneath his hotel windows. Roger's tremendous charisma and his perfect ambassadorship of tennis is undouteble but I'm sure Mirka is happy that Roger only became the George Clooney of tennis after she married him ! Nice to see these two guys , so different and yet similar in many ways. One of the things they share is being part of two of the greatest sport rivalries not just in tennis but allsports : Federer/Nadal and Borg/McEnroe . Neither Borg nor Federer would have been half as great without their nemesis. I wish I could thank these guys , Federer, Rafa, Borg and Johnny Mac for the joy they brought me in a 25 year interval.

My two tennis idols. Great guys, awesome tennis players. What a duo!

Borg had it right. Roger learned this as well, and I've heard him say this. When you get upset and show lots of anger and emotion, you are just empowering your opponent. It is not going to do anything but make them know that you are ripe for the picking. Doesn't mean you aren't fuming on the inside, but if you're able to harness that emotion and channel it correctly, it is an incredible skill and has a strong psychological effect on the opponent. They never know what you're thinking. They know they can't get to you.

Borg....great action and I watched tennis mor n ever when he was doing his thing. My favorite!

We. Need more of those legends to legends talks! Such a good conversation

Two absolute legends 🙏

Even though their games were different, from two different eras, Borg and Federer share a common trait, but you would have had to live in the 70s and see Borg play, and appear in the press to see the similarity. They both were the epitome of "cool". McEnroe and Connors were fiery. Nadal is intense. Lendl was impersonal. Becker and Sampras were imposing. Edberg, like Henman, were the quintessential gentleman. But Borg and Federer are "cool". And you can't teach that.

Bjorn Borg is the reason I started playing tennis (reaching university level). I met him when he opened his clothing range in Selfridges in the mid-2000s, and got him to sign the poster I had had of him since 1980. He was so down-to-earth and polite.

Well spent 12 mins. Such a rich careers and experiences.

Thank you for this! These are without a doubt my favorite two players all-time! Such incredible class on and off the court. Absolutely amazing athletes and representatives of tennis!

Super Duper Legends and such nice guys as well, this is both inspirering and heartwarming!

Class meets class.

Borg is GOAT! No1 ever.

Great video Borg is so interesting taking about the old days of tennis 🎾

My two favorite players by far!

Someone: a Federer: laughs

You gotta love their honesty

My first and current favorite players.

Federer is so humble and likeable

Bjorn Borg was my idol. And still is!!

Also love Bjorn, what a champ and cool as f.

We all miss you Roger and Bjorn is a delight as always.We look forward to 'normal life' when The Laver Cup with both of these great guys will be held in the O2 in 2022.

I wonder if Borg had kept playing, he might have had a lot more GS titles.

These ☺️ two are e the most humble players and full of class!! God bless them both❤️🥰🙌

Two of my favourite players....pity Bjorn stopped playing so early in his life......

Love your stories and friendliness Roger! And your honesty : )
