We all remember this tantrum don't we? This is the classic moment when the American
Tennis star, John McEnroe, threw a tantrum after the umpire (Edward James)
claimed that the ball went out. McEnroe was playing Tom Gullinson at
Wimbledon in 1981. This is still so amusing no matter how many times I
watch it!
"Answer the question Jerk!". Oh, this is just another brilliant moment. Watch and enjoy.
"Please Tell Me!" To this day, I don't think anyone ever did tell him did they? Another classic outburst from the 80s.
And this video proves he hasn't changed a bit! Here is McEnroe again
aged 48 throwing another tantrum! He's playing Pat Cash on 3-8-07 at the
Champions Cup in Naples, FL
Connors Vs McEnroe - This clip is from 1982 when tennis players had a lot more character and the game itself was far more exciting to watch. Here we see Jimmy Connors and McEnroe have a flare-up!
