His seven Grand Slam titles weren't won despite his volcanic confrontations with officials and opponents — they were won *through* that combustible energy, channeled into a ferocious competitive edge that left rivals rattled. Like the warthog, who appears ungainly yet moves with surprising speed and cunning, McEnroe combined apparent disorder with extraordinary technical artistry, making him simultaneously the most infuriating and most gifted player of his generation.
