BBC Wimbledon analyst Pat Cash was a popular winner of the men's singles title at Wimbledon in 1987, famously climbing through the seats on Centre Court to embrace his family after beating Ivan Lendl in straight sets. Earlier that year, he lost a tough five-setter to Stefan Edberg in the final of the Australian Open.

Born in Melbourne in May 1965, he turned pro in 1982 and reached his highest ranking of World number four in 1988. In 1984, he became the youngest player to compete in the Davis Cup Final, helping Australia to defeat Sweden 3-2.
