Video

In the final Chang hit a ball that looked like it was going out, then at the last second it curved in! The shot that curved in, happened because the last breaths of the protesters in Tiananmen Square blew the ball in!

This is a great and valuable interview . After many years , Chang’s achievements in French Open is still so inspired to all of us . We still don’t know how he made it , but he did .

Having known Michael for many years, and seen a number of interviews regarding his amazing run at the 1989 French Open, this documentary ranks as is one of the best!

If it was not June 4th Tainanmem square in Beijing killed the students , draw all the attention . Michael won in the same time would be much more famous.

I got some DMs asking where I got the footage of the interview. I had the wonderful opportunity to interview Mr. Chang over zoom (since this was during the height of the pandemic) so this is an original interview that cannot be found anywhere else. If you do find this interview anywhere else on the internet without proper credit (like a repost), please let me know since I did not give anyone permission to use it. If you would like to quote sections of this interview as a source, I am okay with that as long as you give me credit in your description or works cited.

I remember that final vs. Stefan Edberg. I caught the final set to see Chang break a 34-year American drought and begin a mini-run of American players winning the French Open (Chang, 89; Courier, 91 and 92. Even Agassi made the final in 1990 but lost.)

I'm having a bad day and was questioning myself, so I decided to look up 张德培，so glad I found this video.

Love the story of how players ask about his mom and the security recognized her and not him.

For those that do not know how to pull yourself up, this is how you do it! It was the difference between him taking that 1 more step toward the umpire to quit! That close. Life changing!

Him and sampras were my guys,he was awesome player.now djokovic is my guy.

I remember watching that game with my father

Legend

Great quote at the end: "if you don't quit, great things can happen... because sometimes people quit, and what they didn't realise, was just around the corner, was the light "

That Reebok polo is iconic now

Michael’s win in 89’ first got me into tennis. What an achievement.

Chang was always so exciting to watch. He was so close to win US Open in 1996

So powerful this lesson he learnt!

Great lesson, never give up or simply don't quit, because what you're fighting for may just be around the corner. Leant something from Michael Chang..👏👏👍👍

Thanks for this. Great guy!! Love his mom too! Haha

So well put together!

Chang definitely wasn’t a quitter

He looks like chairman mao.

great one

Who did the voiceover?

Bub goes from small minded assumptions against blind people to an intimate experience with Robert which is really transformative. Once he experiences the epiphany of the cathedral drawing, we see the beginnings of a new man who's dropped his prejudice and now has empathy where there was none. By the end of the story, we can even imagine 'Bub' doing nice things for the blind man. Like, for all we know, maybe the next day he took the blind man to the barber shop to get his ridiculous full-beard shaven off. Or perhaps the husband mightv'e done the blind man the favor of getting him a stick and seeing eye dog, like the blind people he knew from movies. We may never know the extent of Bub's evolution into a more connected and more caring person. But it is clearly significant. We can even imagine--after sharing the drawing experience--that Bub wouldv'e kept in touch with the blind man, independent of his wife. There's every possibility that the two men wouldv'e made it a point to hang out again, whether that meant Bub inviting the blind man back for another visit or Bub instead traveling out to see the blind man. This is something that wouldv'e been unthinkable before he met his wife's blind man and experienced such psychic and emotional growth. So ironically, we can say it's 'Bub' who's 'seen the light' and we can imagine him staying connected---as long as the husband first convinces the blind man to purchase some dark sun glasses so he's not forced for a second time to endure those creepy, independently on-the-roam eyes again, with their milky irises. God, it's too much. This was a beautiful story.
