down against Goran.
Goran Ivanisevic won the Stella Artois Challenge after a 9-7 pro-set victory over John McEnroe at the Queen’s Club in London.
The duo, who won four Wimbledon titles between them, had never previously played each other on grass.
With Ivanisevic rocketing down his left-handed serve and McEnroe creating angles out of nothing, it was as though the duo had never been away.
“It’s always nice to play John, whether it’s on grass, clay or water - he plays really good tennis. He wants to win so if I can beat him I know that I must be playing well.”
