Let me try.
Good!
Do not stop with it!
Are you playing in the Davis Cup? Or is it in Wimbledon? Björn?
- Are you in the final? - Yes.
Is the competition fierce?
MONACO, 1980 HOUSE OF BJÖRN BORG
Cum!
It's Björn!
- An autograph, please.
- Please...
Björn! Björn! Björn Borg!
What is up? Are you chasing him?
A coffee please.
"A coffee?" - "Coffee."
Here you go, sir.
Thank you.
But you can give me some help, if you want.
Right there.
My name is Amedou.
What do you do?
If you are an electrician, I am Prince Albert.
Thank you.
Do you like electric?
Where have you been? She was worried.
I came home on foot.
"Is something wrong?" "No, I just lost track of time.
Did you pack?
Of course.
Tomorrow and Wednesday must rain, but not today.
This is not our usual car.
- Course is. They know what we want. - Upholstery is different.
Balls!
I'll call them tomorrow.
Do not worry, you will regain confidence.
I thought it would be a "closed" workout.
Tell that to leeches which are beyond.
You'll be fine. Concentrate.
How does it feel to receive a telegram from the King to wish you good luck?
Good Luck Votes are always friendly.
We have to fine-tune the rackets, Björn.
Go on, I'll be right there.
What do you think?
- Björn? What do you think? - What is the problem?
They are planning our life.
"Did not you hear what they said?" - Yes, but I want to hear what you want.
Do you want to play in Africa? Do you want to "sell" our marriage?
"I can not think of that now. "It is now that we have to decide.
I can not think about it now.
Right, sure ... ..
Björn, if the marriage is to make you nervous, we can postpone it.
No, no problem.
"We can do something simpler." - Yes.
Unless it's all settled.
Should not we decide?
Go to bed. I'll handle the rest.
What is up?
No one will remember that I won. in Wimbledon 4 consecutive times.
"But if I lost it the fifth time." - What does itmatters what they think?
Looks like they're all waiting ...
Waiting for me to fall. - Fuck everybody!
Give everything you have, tomorrow, even if that seems like the last thing you do.
It's all here, Björn. Here inside.
Play for OIsson. Olsson leads 4-2 in the second set.
- Out! "No. It was on the line."
Did not flag the foul! Wake up!
"What did you say, Borg?" - I know I was out!
Unsportsmanlike conduct. Warning, Borg.
Unsportsmanlike conduct. Punishment:Borg 0-15.
Unsportsmanlike conduct. Punishment:Borg 0-30.
Who is that?
- It's Borg. he's from Södertälje. - There's a lot of energy.
Yes, but little judgment.
His club does not know what to do. Kid's a problem.
Look at that left ... With both hands ...
He thinks he's knocking. with a taco?
Listening...
You win for the next one.
Björn?
There is no better way to solve this?
"Björn will not cause you any more trouble." - Promise.
Mrs. Borg, it's important. to set an example.
- 6 months suspension is an exaggeration. "We have received many phone calls.
Phone calls from Halmstad, Falköping and Stockholm.
Of the parents of the other players.
They are upset. They do not want their children mixed with Björn.
Tennis is not like football or the hockey, where only the victory interests.
In tennis, the way you win is also important.
It's a sport of gentlemen.
Let's be honest ...
Tennis is not an adequate sport to all social classes.
What goes on in that head, when you play
Look at me, when I talk to you
Do not know.
- We'll have to sell your racket. - Rune, please ...
None of the other kids make a scene
Shut up!
Kid! I'm going to turn off the lights.
- You want a cinnamon bun? "I do not have any money."
- I pay. You deserve it. - Right.
Do you also play hockey? That explains your left.
- Looks like a high-top shot. - Yes, it gives more strength.
Exactly.
They say you're almost as good in hockey, as you are in tennis.
Maybe it's more appropriate for me.
Who said that?
You know I'm the captain of the Swedish team. of the Davis Cup, do not you know?
Know.
It's part of my job. discover talents.
Few are suspended for unsportsmanlike conduct.
They say you're not good in the head.
Did they tell you that, too?
You think that's true?
It is not.
Who says that, thinks he knows what do i need
But some of them played in the Central Court of Wimbledon?
- No. - I played.
I came three times to the quarterfinals. In 1946, 1948 and 1951.
I know.
Percy Rosberg and I would like you came to train for Stockholm.
- Does it look good on you? - Yes.
One more thing, Björn ...
Do not stop repeating What they told you to say.
What do you want from tennis?
Being the best.
"The best in Sweden?" - No. Of the world.
Imagine me doing something ...
besides playing tennis?
Yes.
And thou?
Do not think.
It simplifies. He has a strong serve, but that's all.
It's on the bottom line. Play your tennis.
He seems deconcentrated.
No. It's the opposite.
Watch ...
30-0.
- Bagpipe for this! - Calm!
15-0 for Bengtson.
Out.
Björn!
Enough for today. Thank you.
- Why are you always doing this? - What?
Swinging in the air like this, after you fail?
Instead, concentrate on the next strike.
Are you listening to me?
Lennart, you can pass on my Cabinet, sooner?
- We have to talk about Borg. - What about him?
Will be in the group to compete against New Zealand?
No way!
- Because? - He's only 15 years old.
- You think he's no good? - He's different.
"We should not press him. - This has a lot of advertising potential.
If a player of 15 years against Onny Parun,
the whole world will repair. It does not matter that he loses.
The youngest ever player of the Davis Cup.
- We're talking about a kid. - He's 15.
I refuse to put a player 15 years against the number 20 in the world.
"I will not." "Then I'll have to find someone to do it."
- I can 't do this. - Calm down.
"Can't we force them to cancel?" - Reschedule?
It's the Central Court. Sold off.
Björn ...
- Go talk to them. - What?
Speak with them.
- Björn ... - Speak with them!
It stopped raining. They will not cancel.
Use this. There is moisture.
Did you talk to them?
You know I did not.
Björn ...
It would not make any difference.
- Out! - It was inside!
Out. continue.
- You want him to win! - continue.
- Out. - What the hell is going on?
Out! continue!
- Out. Beat Bengtson. - Come!
- Get the racket! - Do not even think! You're cheating!
- Catch. "Go to hell, you fagots!"
I told you to get her!
Are you reaching your maximum form.
It is very difficult to string well the rackets?
There's nothing wrong with the rackets.
"I know when the ropes are fine. "That's not the problem, and you know it.
All those display games and the trick of sponsorship ...
Just play tennis, You look good.
- Shut up. - What?
Said to shut up and stretch well the ropes. You just have to do this.
"If I'm a slacker, take my leave." - It's ok!
- Are you serious? - Very seriously.
"He does not mean it." - I'm serious!
Björn!
- What are you going to do now? "What are you going to do?"
Talk about your three bad quarterfinals?
Björn, please ...
You will defeat him.
How do you know that?
I know and that's it.
Nobody can know that.
I can explode in my next game.
They all act as if this is easy.
"Go there and win. You're a star! You will defeat him. "Very easy.
"It's not easy for either of us. - When's your big game?
If it is so difficult for you, go away.
- Björn ... - Go.
Leave me, too.
Do not think!
I know how you feel, you know?
Sometimes I lost on purpose just to get away
that horrible feeling of the game beginning to escape me.
When I lost, I went straight to the spa. to vomit.
I could not bear to lose.
It's the same with you.
For you is life or death.
The other boys do not feel the same.
They are not like you. That's why they'll never be as good as you can be.
But wishing so much, can also destroy you.
Three quarter-final in Wimbledon ... No other Swede could.
In 1948, I could have won that bagpipe.
Then I lost the first set. And the second...
I could not control my mind.
I should have switched off,
but I did not.
This Saturday, I will let you face Onny Parun,
with a condition. "I'm not going to apologize.
You do not have to ask.
But you have to promise me one thing...
Where's Björn?
Promise me that you will never return to show a single emotion.
Be like a pressure cooker and block everything else.
It simply does not exist.
All that anger,
fear and panic you feel within you,
unloads on each move,
on each right, on each left,
on each stroke.
Do you understand?
In Saturday's game there will be 5 sets.
It will be a single point.
One point at a time.
One point at a time, Björn.
But if you lose your mind and begin to pout,
will be the end of the line.
Very well.
Here inside...
Björn Borg, after defeating Onny Parun, you're conquering the world.
You're a heartbreaker and the girls English run after you.
- Has this been a problem? - Maybe a little...
The tennis world has never seen nothing like this!
But, Björn, what happens if you stop winning?
This will not happen.
- Are not you going to get tired of all the hustle and bustle? - No.
Or to repeat this battle of will and nerves, day after day?
Do not.
- Do you want this? - Yes.
"Is this your life?" - Yes, this is my life.
Concentrate!
I love this! Such as? Would you like a bottle of champagne?
Of course.
- He sent you away? "No, you're asleep."
What are you writing? Poetry?
A book.
My wedding gift for Björn.
I was going to have a drink. You need it, too.
Must be the first time I see him. in a hotel room, without rackets.
Remember my first meeting with Björn?
He saw you play. at the French Open.
He called me from the hotel room. It looked like I was reading ...
a script out loud.
He invited me out and ...
I hoped it was just the two of us, but you were there.
He was so nervous.
It was fun.
When do we stop having fun?
They've been running out of it for five years. There is no middle ground for Björn.
A 2nd or 3rd place is the same than 12º or 1012º. It's the same for him.
When he starts to lose ...
It's over.
Just in the car, it seemed youo had given up on him.
He fired me.
But he does not want to be around, when it falls.
"2/7, 4:30 p.m. I come to watch the semi-final. Dad."
Mr. Borg?
We arrived.
Where are we?
Much like it. I'm Silvana Ruíz of Argentina Television.
Björn.
Let's start by saying who is the best tennis player in the world.
Won in Wimbledon by 4 times and is in search of the fifth title.
I could play against the gate. of the garage, how did he do when he was a kid?
I have to think.
Please, Mr. Borg.
You won twice this afternoon, in Wimbledon. How do you feel?
I feel good.
Go away, Labbe.
Breathe.
Let's finish this together.
Stop feeling sorry for yourself. You're acting like ...
You're acting like a kid.
Treating people who like you as trash.
Go out there, Lower your head and you'll lose.
Is that what you want? Stop it all?
So give him an easy win. Say you pulled a muscle.
"Or admit that your nerves-" - Stop! Stop!
You know what you're doing.
No need.
Everything I've done, led me to this moment.
One last match.
One point at a time.
That. "
It's almost time of the Wimbledon final ...
Calm and steady ...
Nordic cold blood and the impetuous New Yorker ...
The whole world waits that these two giants enter ...
as two gladiators.
Here comes Björn. The Swedish people is cheering for you.
Borg is being rammed up by McEnroe!
Sad to say, but it looks like we have a new king on the throne.
Come on, Björn!
- Come on, Björn!
One point at a time.
My God!
out!
It's only a matter of time, for McEnroe have one of their famous attacks.
Out!
Hit that right for 40-15. And it's match point for Björn.
Two match points in the Final of a Grand Slam.
Björn Borg never wasted this.
One point at a time, one point at a time ...
- No!
Strength, Björn!
- So close! - Balls!
- Two match points lost. - Deuce!
And for viewers who do not are familiar with tennis:
a tie-break is a final match that determines the result of the set.
The first to get 7 points, wins.
But two points are needed advantage to win.
Match Point for Björn.
That American is playing well!
Come on, Björn.
Björn did it!
Sixth match point for Björn.
Seventh match point.
- Come on, Björn!
This tension is almost torture.
I can not stand it, Labbe.
No!
Good!
The result is 2-2.
McEnroe is not only back in the game, how has been better.
Oh my God!
What's happening?
I'm lighting a cigar. A cigar of victory, I hope ...
Damn! He did it again!
I believe this is the greatest achievement in Swedish sports!
Unbelievable...
Should not you be in there?
Can we leave?
We can?
Are not we the ones who decide?
