Borg Decides Not To Sell The Trophies After All

Filed under: Auctions

Bjorn Borg's Wimbledon trophies won't be for sale after all. We've been following the story of Borg's decision to sell his five Wimbledon trophies and two rackets in order to raise money for a while. Most recently Andre Agassi had said he was going to try and purchase the trophies so that they would wind up in a museum. Now Borg has released a statement saying that he will never sell the trophies and rackets and that the planned auction at Bonham's in London will not take place. The pleas of fellow tennis legends and his many fans has convinced Borg to give up what could have been a $525,000 payday.
