Boris Becker gave a detailed account of his current situation in an interview. The three-time Wimbledon champion rejects Pleite reports resolutely and reaches out to a media scandal. The 49-year-old also reveals that he sees the current events as a great opportunity.
“It’s true that since the 21st century, I’m in bankruptcy proceedings on June 1, but it’s wrong that I’m broke. Explaining everything to them in detail would take at least two hours,”said Becker in an interview with the Neue Zürcher Zeitung.
Unfortunately, certain German media had organized a “manhunt” for him, the man from Leimener explained further. False facts and allegations had been made. The Boris Becker brand is a business model for the media, which are often also looking for sensationalism.
“A journalist from the editor-in-chief of the Bild-Zeitung once told me:’ Mr. Becker, since the Second World War there are three headlines that have always worked for us: Adolf Hitler, the reunification and Boris Becker'”.
Becker also emphasized that he was neither penniless nor broke,”This is the Crux. I drive to Zurich, check into a hotel and pay my bill. If I were insolvent, I couldn’t do that. If I take a cab, I’ll pay for it. And believe me, I didn’t steal anything. It’s insane to think I’m broke,”said the former number one in the world.
But I’ve always learned from what I call my own double mistakes, and at the end of the day I’ve torn the match around,”says the six-time Grand Slam champion.
Although the current situation is anything but pleasant for Becker, Germany’s tennis king is not desperate. He believes in his fate, which can also be called karma.
“I’m 50. This is an important age in a man’s life. This is the first time you look back, and look at what has happened so far. It’s the first time you see the finish line in front of you. I see my current situation as a great opportunity to clean up my past and redesign my future. I owe it to my family,”said Becker.
