"john mcenroe had an incredible match record of 82-3 in 1984. but one of those three losses was perhaps the most painful of his career. in the french open final, he was up two sets to love against ivan lendl. but the wheels came off early in the third set when mcenroe berated a cameraman for a noise coming from his headset. mcenroe lost the third set, but had a golden opportunity to win the match when he went up 4-2 in the fourth. but the strong-willed lendl would prevail, winning that set and the fifth to claim the championship, his first grand slam."
