Wally Masur was down 5-0 and facing match point in the 5th set and came back to win. This happened at the US Open sometime ago in the 90s. I can't remember his opponent right now.

Del Potro was down 2 sets to zero...and looking like he ready to retire....plus he was down 4 - 2 in the 4th set

Best comeback I ever saw

I saw live Bjorn Borg beat Roscoe Tanner after being down 2-0 in the USA
Open . Roscoe Tanner had a very quick
serving action , and got a lot of pace
on his Serves .

Good Players have the ability to move
to a higher gear at will ; especially
when games are tied . Yannick Noah was
a master at doing that .

Generally at that level the Pros pace themselves especially the men , since
matches can potentially lasts 5 sets .

Great comeback. Thiem should have won though. He was serving for the match in the fourth set. Del Potro proved that he was mentally stronger.
