He was ranked world No. 1 in men's singles by the ATP for 170 weeks and world No. 1 in men's doubles for 269 weeks. He is one of two male players to have held both No. 1 rankings, and the only male player to have held both the singles and doubles No. 1 rankings simultaneously. During his playing career he was known for his shot-making and volleying skills, and he had notable rivalries with Björn Borg and Jimmy Connors. He also attracted attention for confrontational on-court behavior that frequently brought him into conflict with umpires and tennis authorities.\n\nAmong the honors McEnroe received are the Associated Press Athlete of the Year award, the Philippe Chatrier Award, and induction into the International Tennis Hall of Fame. His career combined achievement in both the singles and doubles disciplines, a distinction that places him among a very small group of male players in the history of the sport. His on-court profile was shaped by the combination of technical precision in shot-making and volleying alongside the confrontational conduct that became a defining feature of his competitive years.","John Patrick McEnroe Jr. is an American tennis player born on February 16, 1959, in Wiesbaden, who went on to work as both a journalist and a tennis coach.","john-mcenroe",null,[14],{"tag_id":15,"tag_name":16,"tag_count":17},20983,"tennis",5,{"quotes":19,"pagination":82},[20,28,34,40,46,52,58,64,70,76],{"id":21,"quote_text":22,"author_id":5,"source_id":23,"has_image":24,"author":25,"source":26,"quote_tag":27,"commentary":12},3744425,"What I've realised is that you can run miles, jump on a bike, lift weights, and all that other garbage, but the bottom line is that you get in tennis shape by playing tennis.
