Bjorn was a 6-times Roland Garros & 5-times Wimbledon champion.
Roland Garros: '74-'75 & '78-'81. Wimbledon: '76-'80.
He could never break through at the USO dispite 4 finals there.
He is tied with Rafa for most RG titles - Rafa is threatening to break that.
Bjorn won the RG-W double 3 times - 3 years running: '78-'80.
And finished the year ranked #1 twice: '79-'80.
Remember: He famously hung up his rackets in his prime at age 26.
The 'rock star' stunned everyone with his sudden retirement.
Who knows how many Slams he might have won had he stuck around?
