French Open WinnersBy Patrick Mondout
Jimmy Connors, who won the other three Grand
Slam events in 1974, was prevented from competing in the French Open
due to his contract to play in World Team Tennis. It
remains the only one of the four tournaments he has not won.
Here are the results of the French Open tournaments held during the
Super70s.
