One of tennis's true gentlemen and sportsmen, the ever-graceful Orantes won 33 singles titles in his career. He also garnered the National Championships in 10 different countries and qualified for the Masters in 6 consecutive years (1972-77). He will be best remembered for his shocking, but decisive, defeat of Jimmy Connors in the 1975 U.S. Open final. Orantes labored on-court until nearly midnight the day before in an epic semifinal gainst Guillermo Vilas. "Manolo" rallied from 0-5 down in the fouth set in one of the Open Era's all-time great matches--not to mention comebacks. He has had major troubles with his left arm (surgery three times).
