# Boris Becker vs Omar Camporese – 3rd round, 1991
Boris Becker had never won the Australian Open. All that changed in 1991. However, he didn't have an easy path to victory as the Number 2 seed had to face one of the most difficult matches of his illustrious career. Italian Omar Camporese was Becker's 3rd round opponent that year.
Becker and Camporese were neck to neck in the first two sets with Becker only managing to edge out his opponent in a tiebreak in both the sets. Camporese turned the tables remarkably in the next two sets, even bageling Becker in the 3rd set. Camporese levelled the match by taking the 4th set. The 5th set was a marathon contest as both men just refused to budge. Eventually, after 5 hours and 11 minutes, Boris Becker won the match. The final score read 7-6(7-4), 7-6(7-5), 0-6, 4-6, 14-12.
