The former Manhattan home of tennis ace John McEnroe has been lobbed onto the market, and you can score the athlete’s one-time pad for $9.8 million.
The Grand Slam champion sold his Upper West Side co-op back in 2013 for a cool $3.1 million, and since then, the apartment has been expanded into a four-bed, four-bath combo unit, Mansion Global first reported.
