Bjorn Borg has been married thrice so far throughout his life, with his first being to former Romanian tennis player Mariana Simionescu. The two started dating in 1976 and married in 1980. They divorced in 1984.

Loredana Berte was Borg's second wife and they wed in 1989 before divorcing in 1993. The Swede's third marriage was to Patricia Ostfeld in 2002. Their son Leo Borg plays tennis and won his first tour-level match at the 2023 Bastad Open against Elias Ymer.

Bjorn Borg had an extraordinary tennis career during which he won 11 Grand Slam singles titles. The French Open was the Swede's most successful Major as he won it six times. This included four straight tournament wins from 1978-1981. He won five successive Wimbledon titles from 1976-1980 — a feat that would be equaled by Roger Federer from 2003-2007.

The Swede reached four US Open finals (1976, 1978, 1980 and 1981) but ended up on the losing side each time. His sole Australian Open participation in 1974 resulted in a third-round exit.
