There's nothing here that warrants a separate article, it's merely a repository for their head to head meetings results. Fixer23 (talk) 13:03, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment I just noticed that this article has been nominated for deletion before and the result was to delete (after a long and protracted discussion). Not sure why it was created again. Also, one of the comments cited four other articles of "rivalries" (namely Connors–Lendl rivalry, Connors–McEnroe rivalry, Evert–Navratilova rivalry, Lendl–McEnroe rivalry) as reasons for keep, however, I think they just highlighted the fact that those articles should be deleted as well as they too only consist of head to head results with no attempt at expanding or explaining the rivalries ala Federer–Nadal rivalry or even the Williams Sisters rivalry article (which is very inferior, but attempts to explain rather than just list meetings). Head to head stats can easily be obtained over the internet, that isn't s reason for keep either. Fixer23 (talk) 04:56, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - It seems like a more appropriate solution for Connors–Lendl rivalry, Connors–McEnroe rivalry, Evert–Navratilova rivalry and Lendl–McEnroe rivalry would be to expand them, not delete them, based on the abundance of sources available. Rlendog (talk) 22:54, 14 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment - I am not expressing an opinion on deleting or keeping, but just noting that this article (particularly the lead paragraph) seems to be more extensive than the deleted version, and thus this does not appear to be eligible for speedy deletion. Rlendog (talk) 22:58, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
 * This isn't speedy deletion though. Fixer23 (talk) 12:18, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete Article is mostly an extensive listing of statistics. Armbrust  Talk  Contribs  21:17, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete as per Armbrust, if there is extensive articles written about this rivalry, that would make an article. but no. LibStar (talk) 23:54, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
