Inside: Boris Becker’s Journey Through Prison

About The Author

Boris Becker

Born in Leimen, Germany, Becker’s journey to tennis stardom is nothing short of remarkable. Bursting onto the tennis scene in the mid-1980s, he captivated the world with his powerful serve, lightning-fast reflexes and fearless playing style. At 17, he became the youngest Wimbledon champion in history, claiming the title in 1985 and sparking what would become a legendary career.

Throughout the late 1980s and 1990s, Becker continued to dominate the tennis world, capturing a total of six Grand Slam singles titles, including three Wimbledon championships.

Beyond his individual achievements, Becker was a key member of the German Davis Cup team, helping lead his country to victory in 1988. His contributions to the sport earned him the respect and admiration of fans around the globe, and in 2003 he was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame.

Following his retirement from professional tennis, Becker transitioned into coaching and commentating.
