In 1981 a disputed line call gave rise to the now-famous John McEnroe quote: “You cannot be serious”.

Wat an absolute tool
I slowed down the video and it really was a good ball
first is always NUMBER 1 FOLLOWS DUPLICATE
Legend. I would love for players like this to appear today, they won't…
The referee had it coming when he argued "it was bit of a spread, mister Mcenroe." And gave himself a pat on the back "It was a good call"

Even Stevie Wonder saw the chalk fly up.
maradona 'hand of God' was no clearer than this
He was right.
It WAs 100 % on the line on the correct side of the serve court , what a stupid REferee
This judge cannot be serious
He was right Stevie Wonder could see that.
In ๐ฏ
He was right here, just like he was right about Serena Williams playing against dudes.
0:27 I LOVE IT !!!
E un viziato
Little cloud of chalk dust says the ball was good.
In hindsight, McEnroe should of gave it to them twice as hard!
Absolute LEGEND!

Umpire was trolling heavily
He was right, it was clearly in.
โChalk flew up!โ
โNoโฆ..it was a bit of grass.โ
This was like a mad American being refereed by Basil Fawlty.
Funny enough, in most of Johnny Mac's outbursts, he was completely right.
Genius
Vero incompetent qnd stupid referees
In the HBO doc MCENROE they showed a different camera angle from his opponentโs court that showed the ball CLEARLY hit the line, therefore in.
That outburst never gets old๐๐๐๐๐
"Chalk flew up!", with arms raised. That's where LeBron got his idea, I'm sure.

PMSL.Loved him…

Why the court seems wider compared to present ones??? Or am i fuckin blind
On the spot and even after so many years, he was 100% right about that point! Full stop.
I zoomed in and watched it. It was CLEARLY IN.not even close to being out
I don't know why they give John McEnroe a hard time about this. I saw the chalk fly up too, and I would have reacted the same way. MAC WAS RIGHT!
Thats an Alpha.
Spoken like a true Irishman.โ
