these two were amazing. agassi was playing great here, while sampras was serving second serve aces. that second one was at 124 mph
-
For anyone who thinks Agassi hits his forehand with an Eastern Grip, they just need to watch the slomo at 1:48. Clearly, he is using a Semi-Western grip.
-
Anyway, that's my 2 cents. These two guys were both better tennis players than Federer, and if they were in the same era we would have seen that proved without doubt.

Most of Federer's career has been the beneficiary of a period of tennis that was sparse with true elite talent at the top (in distinct contrast to Sampras and Agassi's era).
Then Nadal arrived and suddenly Federer became human.
Not a coincidence.
Federer is an all-time great, but his stats making him *the* all time great are falsely inflated by an era of low parity and uneven competition, an inevitable valley following the peak that was the 90s.

Best shot of the match at 1:33

havent seen anyone in modern tennis serve that fast like pete did on a 2nd serve...epic stuff !

@louislewis89: You're in a bit of a hurry. He's an incredible player, but he's only just got started. Give him another ten slam titles and I'll agree.

Pete Sampras is the greatest serve & volley tennis player ever & will always be.
-
@mahircz i completely agree, it is rare to see a consistent serve and volleyer in todays game... Sampras is the greatest ever, he could do it all
