   Becker [7] got the decisive break leading 4:3 in the 3rd set after Edberg’s [3] two consecutive double faults. They will meet in the Wimbledon final three weeks later: Edberg wins it in four sets… “Naturally, I must have a good shot for Wimbledon,” said Becker, “I could lose. I’m not a machine. But I hope I don’t.” Atypical grass event, the champion didn’t play even one tie-break, what’s more bizarre – he had to play isx matches, not five, so more sets than usually.

   Becker’s route to his 15th title:
   1 Charlton Eagle 6-1, 6-3
   2 Scott Davis 4-6, 6-3, 6-4
   3 Bill Scanlon 6-3, 6-4
   Q Eric Jelen 7-5, 6-2
   S Darren Cahill 6-2, 6-4
   W Stefan Edberg 6-1, 3-6, 6-3
