Original artwork description
Tennis fans of a certain age, along with PhD students researching questionable sporting etiquette, will know that on 21st June 1981 in the first round of Wimbledon John McEnroe, at that time an up-and-coming simmering volcano, saw one of his serves to Tom Gullikson squarely hit the service line, chalk clearly flew up, only for a fault to be called and McEnroe to screechingly volley these four immortal words - later to be the title of his autobiography, not to mention T-shirt designs, bumper stickers etc etc - at the hapless umpire. Still perturbed by this injustice in the very next game McEnroe varied his play by lobbing the umpire with 'you are the absolute pits of the world.' From this point on McEnroe's career was a gift to tennis and yelling. Away from tennis in these days of deceptive spin, dodgy rackets, backhanders, bad calls, and unfair advantage it seems only right to dig out McEnroe's tirade into open court again. Do you a good deal on this shouty picture John! Seriously!!
