Tie Break cover (1990) 🔗


Starbyte Software was a German development studio, so it's not surprising they got inspired by erstwhile German tennis wunderkind Boris Becker. Putting him on the cover two (or three?) times, however, might have been a bit much. Aside from his famous leap photograph, it also features him holding his trophy from the same day he won the Wimbledon Tournament at age 17 in 1985. I couldn't find the right photo for the serve to the right, but it still looks a lot like a Boris Becker serve.
