'On This Day 1978: Björn Borg Interview on Wimbledon Win'

On This Day: Wimbledon Special!

After beating Jimmy Connors in the 1978 Wimbledon Men's Final, Swedish tennis icon Björn Borg spoke to ITN about how it felt to win Wimbledon for the third year in a row.

Borg went on to win the tournament again in 1979 and once more in 1980, making him the first man to win the Wimbledon singles championship five successive times since 1906.

Borg's record run was ended in 1981, when he lost to his American rival, John McEnroe.
