Wimbledon Gentlemen's Singles 1972Stan Smith
About this print
Rain washed out the final Saturday, so Stan Smith and Ilie Năstase played the first Wimbledon final ever held on a Sunday. Smith won it in five sets, 4-6, 6-3, 6-3, 4-6, 7-5. The two-time defending champion John Newcombe could not enter, barred by the ban on players contracted to World Championship Tennis.

About Champs Ring prints
Champs Ring is the original radial sports bracket. Hyperakt's Deroy Peraza created it for the 2010 World Cup, and it went on to appear in more than a hundred publications and in design exhibitions in France and Spain. Every print shows one year's draw from the round of 16 as rings, each player in the color of their nation, with the champion at the center.
