THIS JUST IN...

(IN CASE YOU MISSED IT)

...FROM CBS SPORTS

During its U.S. Open Tennis Championships coverage on Sunday, Sept. 4, CBS Sports aired a feature on five-time U.S. Open champion Jimmy Connors on the 20^th anniversary of his magical semi-final run in the 1991 U.S. Open at age 39.  In the feature, Connors recounts his U.S. Open run describing it as "the best 11 days of my career."

Among those interviewed in the piece include Patrick McEnroe, who Connors defeated in the first round after trailing two sets and down 3-0 in the third set; Aaron Krickstein, who Connors beat in the fourth round in a five-set tie-breaker; and Paul Haarhuis, who Connors battled to win in four sets, including one of the most memorable points in U.S. Open history.  CBS Sports' Jason Ross is the producer.
