The 66-year-old gave a comprehensive explanation of his motivation, stating that as an athlete, he desired seclusion. When he stayed at hotels for personal reasons, there used to be cameramen. Borg added that they were even followed while they used the restroom. The former tennis player does, however, think that players of today have security and that their privacy is highly valued.
Therefore, Borg claimed he would have continued to put up even more outstanding performances if there had been security for the players of his generation. Then, he continued, “I was happy.” “I could have won more Grand Slams if I had kept playing,” he said, implying his dominance on the ATP Tour. It has also been asserted by many within the tennis community that Borg excelled on clay courts more than other tennis greats.
