The 1981 edition of Roland Garros produced nothing new in terms of the last man standing, with Bjorn Borg winning his record-breaking sixth crown in Paris to become the most successful player in the history of this Major.
The great Swede had overcome the challenge from a young Ivan Lendl, junior champion here a few years ago, and he needed three hours and 13 minutes to score a 6-1 4-6 6-2 3-6 6-1 victory in what turned out to be his last match in Paris, never returning to play the French Open despite the fact he just turned 25.
