Evert recalls ups and downs of long rivalry with Navratilova
Chris Evert’s view of Martina Navratilova went from up-and-coming danger to doubles partner to foil in a record 14 Grand Slam finals to close pal. They played each other a record 80 times in all. Rivalries such as theirs help define tennis history. So does Wimbledon. The grass-court major was scheduled to be played now but was canceled because of the coronavirus pandemic. The most intriguing matchups all include at least one Wimbledon final. Martina vs. Chrissie, Roger vs. Rafa and both vs. Novak, Pete vs. Andre, Serena vs. Venus, John vs. Jimmy and both vs. Bjorn. No last names necessary.
