 STOCKHOLM, Sweden (AP) - Bjorn Borg has decided not to auction off his five Wimbledon trophies after all. The Swedish great, the only player to win five straight Wimbledon titles, changed his mind after pleas from his fans, London auction house Bonhams said Monday.
Borg had announced earlier this month he would sell his trophies and two of his title-winning wood rackets in order to achieve "financial security."
"After great consideration and reasoning, I have decided that I will never sell my Wimbledon trophies and rackets and I have withdrawn them from sale," Borg said in a statement.
