HAPPY BIRTHDAY

BJORN BORG, 62. Swedish former world No 1 tennis star and five- times Wimbledon champion (right), whose calm on- court demeanour earned him the nicknames Ice Man and Ice-Borg. His first wife, Romanian tennis pro Mariana Simionescu, said: ‘ He was always placid and calm, except if he lost a match — then he wouldn’t talk for at least three days.’ In 1979, he became the first player to win over $1 million in a season. ROBERT ENGLUNd, 71. The American actor who played the horrifically scarred Freddy Krueger in the Nightmare On Elm Street horror films says that, before Freddy, he was ‘a mop-haired blond surfer dude’. For his audition, he greased his hair down, used cigarette ash mixed with saliva under his eyes and ‘played staring games’ with a menace that unsettled his audience.
