Chang/Lendl Ready To Roll Back The Years In Delray Beach

Michael Chang and Ivan Lendl will compete in an ATP Champions Tour tournament together for the first time in Delray Beach, starting on Friday, with the chance to resume another of the most fascinating rivalries in tennis.

It is 23 years since a 17-year-old Chang out-foxed the all-conquering World No.1 Lendl in the fourth round of the French Open before going on to beat Stefan Edberg in the final and win the most unlikely of titles at Roland Garros.

That triumph over Lendl, along with the image of Chang hitting an underarm serve against his revered opponent, are recollections that will stay with anyone who witnessed them. For Chang, who plays his first round-robin match in Delray on Friday against Carlos Moya, they are fond memories, and he suprisingly revealed that he had even been able to share them with his vanquished opponent. more -- http://www.atpchampionstour.com/
