What people forget is that in that two year period that he didn't win anything he made the finals of the US Open losing to Hewitt and Safin who in my opinion no one would've beaten them on those days as they played their best tennis! It's a testament to how great Pete Sampras is that he came back and won his 14th Grand Slam ending his career with a Grand Slam title something no other player has ever done in the sport! Only one word describes him LEGEND!
@DanimalLawlz Nervous, and I'm sure everyone would cut him a break. Being a moron, asking stupid questions, and not being able to pronounce WIMBLEDON whilst interviewing Sampras -- not acceptable. My word, his questions were SO stupid.
This interview is the most annoying-voiced, non-pronouncing faggot I've ever seen. Sampras should have swung a forehand at his STUPID wimbleTON saying face.
AAAAARGH, its WimBlenDon not Wimpleton, who is this interviewer! Pete was phenomenal by the way, smart player and physically talented. He aproached the game so logically, maybe not a raw display of passion but if you want drama you can watch soap operas. Plus in the late 90s he really was above the competition. Would be great to see him back with Roger and Rafa again..vamos Peter!
mats wilander would have destroyed nadal on clay and federer on hard court at his prime becker would have destroyed federer 1985 wimbledon lendl would have destroyed nadal on clay sampras would have destroyed every body laver would have destroyed all of them
Agreed, no competition nowadays. I guess Roger would have won may 8 gransdslams in the 80s with McEnroe, Lendl, Connors, Wilander....
Regarding Rafa, he deserves all the credit in the world, but...yeah, no way he would have won 4 on a row in Paris with Lendl, Wilander, Vilas, lurking around...no way
@cramoses : In any era, Rafa would have won those French Opens!! But yeah, Roger, Sampras, Borg and all the others u mentioned would have struggled to win the others!! :)

federer and nadal would destroy sampras in his prime in any surface!

thats BS !
Sampras would never ever lose to Nadal on Grass.

Sorry. That's pure nonsense.
Not only would Pete outplay Rafa on grass, he'd probably do the same to him on Hard Courts as well.

Despite being a die hard Rafa fan, i agree. Pete was too good in his prime, just too good
