Golden Set

Golden Set

A Golden Set is a set of tennis which is won without dropping a single point. Only one player in the history of professional tennis has ever achieved this, Bill Scanlon. It was against Marcos Hocevar in the first round of the WCT Gold Coast Classic at Delray Beach on February 22, 1983. Scanlon won the match 6–2, 6–0. The achievement is recorded in the Guiness Book of World Records.
