The following players won their first title in 1986:
gollark: That seems very strawman.
gollark: Tiktok bad because tiktok content mostly bad and also its apps are basically a ridiculously intrusive vehicle for Chinese spying.
gollark: There are lots of block-based "programming" things now.
gollark: I wrote about this on my blog last year, which obviously makes me an expert™. While these things maybe *can* help with the general skill of being able to translate your complex and underspecified intentions into actual code, they aren't really *marketed* that way and thus are probably not taught usefully that way, and they're bad at, well, teaching programming directly.
gollark: According to my IQ test, I have an IQ of 600.
Notes
- Lendl's total ATP prize money for the year was $1,987,537. This consisted of earnings from tournaments (including WCT), circuit bonuses, play-offs and team events based on merit.
