    Points won by each set: | 33-23, 27-20, 34-30 |
    Points won directly behind the serve:
    46 % Edberg – 38 of 82
    22 % Lendl – 19 of 85

    They faced each other nine times at majors & it was their most one-sided encounter. Edberg played simply perfect tennis in his last two matches of the US Open ’91, Lendl couldn’t do anything, especially as a receiver despite that two weeks before at Long Island in the semifinals he had defeated Edberg 6-3, 6-2. In New York, Edberg took control at *2:3 in the opener winning five straight games. He already led 5:1 in the 2nd set and broke at 3-all in the 3rd set… he fired two aces in the last game.
