Had too much money, was recipe for disaster: Becker on winning Wimbledon at 17
Six-time Grand Slam Champion Boris Becker opened up about winning Wimbledon at 17, saying that he had "too much" money. "I was too comfortable...Nobody told me ‘no’. Everything was possible. In hindsight, that’s the recipe for disaster," the 57-year-old stated. "I’m happy to have won three Wimbledons, but maybe 17 was too young. I was still a child," Becker added.
