KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. (AP) —
Mats Wilander survived Jimmy Con
nors’ relentless charges to the net
with serves and stamina for a 6-4, 4-
6, 6-4, 6-4 victory Sunday in the final
of the International Players Cham
pionships.
Connors fell to 0-5 lifetime
against Wilander and lost in the fi
nals of a tournament for the 11th
straight time since he last won a title
in October 1084.
Connors, seeded second, won five
times as many points at the net as
Wilander, but the top-seeded Swede
had 10 aces and 18 service w inners.
Wilander, 23, was moving more and
Connors, 35, appeared weary in the
final stages of the three-hour, 45-
minute match.
“Give me a few of those years, will
you?” Connors shouted at his oppo
nent after Wilander chased down
two overhead volleys in opposite cor
ners.
Connors argued about two calls by
linesmen in the second set. but the
protests were mild compared with
his semifinals match Friday against
Miloslav Mecir, when he threatened
to (jiiit because of the officiating.
When the chair umpire overruled
a call against Wilander in the third
set and ordered the point replayed,
Connors didn’t protest.
Connors made his strategy clear
when he came to the net on four of
the first eight points. But Wilander
broke Connors’ serve three times in
the first set and served it out at love.
Wilander is 101-3 since the 1986
French Open when he wins the first
set.
Connors’ aggressiveness was the
difference in the second set, when
he rallied from a 4-3 deficit by
breaking serve twice. In a four-game
span, the American won 1 1 straight
points when he reached the net.
Wilander took command in the
third set, twice serving three aces in
a game. The only service break came
