THE GEOFF BROWN TENNIS COLLECTION<br />
Biographical notes<br />
Geoff Brown was born in Australia in 1924. His right-handed serve was a rocket, his two-handed forehand a<br />
hurricane, and his left-handed single-handed shot did not compare with the strength of Bromwich’s. The speed of his<br />
rapidly-made serve and forehand was surprising, because he was only a light-weight of about nine stone (57kg).<br />
Because of his lop-sided groundstroke strength doubles suited him better, and he won the 1946 NSW doubles with<br />
Pails, the Victorian doubles in 1947 with Quist and in 1948 with Sidwell. He was also a Davis Cup player in 1947<br />
and 1948. He could play singles too, winning the 1949 Queensland/South Australian singles – but it was earlier, in<br />
1946, when he gave Wimbledon spectators the shock of their lives.<br />
In that tournament he hit all his opponents off the court, including Lennert Bergelin of Sweden in a quarter-final and<br />
Jaroslav Drobny of Czechoslovakia in a semi-final, and advanced to the Wimbledon final without having lost a set.<br />
There he met Yvon Petra, a very tall Frenchman who had been born in French Indo-China and had learnt his hard<br />
hitting tennis there. They may have been David and Goliath in stature (almost anyone combined with Petra offered<br />
this role) but they were well matched in service speed. Petra threw the ball high up, waited, and crashed it; Brown<br />
made a rapid wind-up, seemed to strike the ball as early as still on the rise, and he crashed it.<br />
Since Petra tended to be an erratic and excitable player, team manager Gerald Patterson advised Brown to keep the<br />
ball in play – which Brown did, only to see the first two sets slip away from him at 2-6, 4-6. So then he hit out in his<br />
more usual way and took the third set, but only at 9-7. Petra matched him in the fourth and led 5-4 on service and 40-<br />
15, but then Brown hit Petra’s next two cannon-balls for winners. He won the game, held his own service to lead 6-5<br />
and ended the set by taking Petra’s serve to love for a resounding comeback.<br />
But Brown lost his opening serve in the last set, and big serve followed big serve until Petra stood at 5-4. What could<br />
Brown pull out of the hat? Nothing, because Petra (who stood at 6’7”) reached up to the clouds and banged down four<br />
aces for a sensational ending to a sensational match. It was at once Brown’s greatest tournament and his unluckiest.<br />
He reached the finals of the singles, doubles (Pails) and mixed (Dorothy Bundy, USA) without losing a set in any<br />
event, and then did not win any of the finals. And he did not become Wimbledon’s first two-handed singles winner;<br />
Chris Evert did that in 1974 and Jimmy Connors followed her a day later.<br />
