Check the accompanying wire photograph of Connors joyously celebrating his 1982 Wimbledon victory over John McEnroe, and you'll see that the racquet he holds in his right hand is identical to the one we offer here. When you find one that you like, you stick with it. Now this is obviously not the same racquet he used in Wimbledon, as it is dated six years later in childlike vintage ink on the handle. One thing is for certain though--this busted "Wilson" brand racquet saw world class use in the hand of one of the game's biggest stars. White warm-up pants with black trim are tagged from Jimmy Connors' personal line for "Slazenger" sporting goods, and signed by him in 10/10 blue sharpie.
