The king of tennis, five-time Wim- bledon champion Bjorn Borg of Sweden, kept his hopes alive for his fir- st Open crown by rallying from a two- set deficit and winning his semifinal match against unseeded Johan Kriek of South Africa 4-6, 4-6, 6-1, 6-1, 6-1. Borg, the top seed who has now won the last 13 five-set matches he's played, will face defending champion John McEnroe in today's men's singles final. The second-seeded McEnroe gained the final by outslugging third-seeded Jimmy Connors 6-4, 5-7, 0-6, 6-3, 7-6 in a brilliant exhibition of power tennis that last 4 hours, 15 minutes, starting out under bright sunshine and ending under the lights. Lloyd, who won the Open from 1975 through 1978 before being dethroned by Tracy Austin in 1979, appeared drained after her victory.

"For two years I kept reading about how I was no longer No. 1. It was discouraging. I lost a little faith in myself." Now that faith has been restored, and Chris Evert Lloyd, the former queen of tennis, is back on her throne. The McEnroe-Connors slugfest was a fitting conclusion to a day of emotion- charged crowd-pleasing tennis. "It was a helluva match," said Con- nors. "We played some good tennis in the daytime and the nighttime, too.."
