We also go ga ga over the number of times someone has won at a particular event. Becker featured in 7 Wimbledon finals. Winning 3 of them. 1985, 1986 and 1989. Losing 1988 to Edberg in 4 sets, 1990 again to Edberg in 5 sets, 1991 to Stich and 1995 to Sampras in 4 sets. If only those 4 setters and 5 setters could have been converted, who knows? That's why he's one of the greatest at Wimbledon. In spite of only 3 titles. Because of the sheer level of competition he faced. The same holds true for McEnroe. He has three Wimbledons and two 5 setter final losses to Borg and Connors.
