Halloween is right around the corner, and all around America, people are preparing for the spooky yet special night. However, who would have thought that the tennis legend John McEnroe would inspire his fans to dress up like him for Halloween?

John McEnroe, famously known as “SuperBrat”  had an incredible tennis career but he was more renowned for his anger and outspokenness on the tennis court. Despite his on-court antics, the tennis star won eight Grand Slam singles titles and made his name in the tennis world with his carefree, unbeatable attitude.
