I read this article and here's part of it:
"You can talk all you want about Jimmy Connors amazing run to the U.S. Open semifinals in 1991 at the age of 39, but he never faced a player with the talent level of the zoning Blake, a guy who if he had managed to hold serve at 5-4 in the fifth set, could have gone on to win the tournament."
I don't think he could have won the tournament even if he won over Agassi. Can he beat Federer or Hewitt in the final? I don't think so. He played really well for his usual standard but I don't think it is still good enough to beat out Federer.
