    Funny you should mention that Davis cup tie.... just received "A Terrible Splendor" by Marshall J. Fisher. It is all about the Budge - Von Cramm match and all the historical events around it...
    And, oh yes, I misspelled "Cramm"...


    Here is an article from the SI vault on Von Cramm:

    Tough to find a video on the match though....

        Jumpy little clip that one, Phil. Still you can get the gist of how tennis was back then. They played to a packed house at Wimbledon back then too, like nowadays.
