Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: The Borg look: Young Swedish tennis star Per Hjertquist is a dead ringer - in looks; anyway - for Sweden's great star Bjorn Borg. Hjertquist says Borg's success is the main reason he turned from other sports to tennis. Like Borg; he's a winner; advancing to today's junior tournament semi-finals at the Donalda club.
