McEnroe asked the question

'You cannot be serious' to an umpire. Well, wasn't really a question. I know this because I am a long time tennis fan and consider McEnroe's peak - admittedly short compared to other great modern era players like Borg, Connors, Lendl, Sampras, Agassi, and Federer - to represent the very highest skill level attained and demonstrated. Shot precision, master of serve-and-volley, just going out one day an deciding to develop a killer serve...many reasons. Best single season record at 82-3 in 1984. A few years ago when he was dispensing with foes in the finals 6-1, 6-0 Federer was pretty close to McEnroe's peak and in 2005 he was 81-3.

McEnroe was a brat, however.
