Imagine if you could call John McEnroe âJuniorâ on a regular basis and get away with it. That is the privilege enjoyed by Peter Fleming after combining with McEnroe in one of the most revered doubles teams of all time to win four Wimbledon and three US Open titles.
Standing 6ft 5ins with a familiar shock of blonde hair, Fleming looks little different to the man who reached No.8 in the world in singles 25 years ago. His big, right-handed serve and dominating presence at the net were enough to unsettle even the most composed of opponents, and he can still play. Since retiring from the rigours of the professional circuit, Fleming has carved out a successful television commentary career with Sky Sports.
