Pete Sampras goes nuts against the chair umpire

At the 1996 US Open quarterfinal match against Alex Corretja, Pete Sampras went "nuts" (in his own way) against the chair umpire. Pete was absolutely correct in that he deserved a first serve after all that nonsense.

"What are you smoking there?!?!"

LMAO... That was hilarious, especially coming from a guy like Pete, who rarely ever argues a call.

I like how McEnroe is always on the player's side against the umpire in these vids lol.

@vuk911 I mostly agree, but on the other hand the players today do not try to play "serve-and-volley" at all. I mean they should not do it permanently, because the top-players would adapt to it very quickly and pass the serve-volleyer again and again in the long run. But just to mix things up. Let's say, perhaps 10-15 net approaches per set and also sometimes S & V, especially after huge first serves. This might be a better tactic than just baseline-bashing all the time...

This is simply anyone going nuts? What a substandard and mediocre attempt!

@Phaedra2696 I too have noticed a resemblance between Sampras and Drake.

"what were you soming?" you were right pete

@KnowImillian And P.S. You can have that "I know everything and you know nothing,so you can`t argue with me" attitude as long as you want,but you should know that that doesn`t make you right.

@KnowImillian Players learned to deal with that aggressive,serve-and-volley style of play. Look at Rafa Nadal. Your approach shot against him has to be full power,on the line if you want to go on net. Otherwise,you`re fu**ed. Federer also has insane passing shot. Novak Djokovic? Every return is 5-10cm from the base line. It`s impossible to play serve-and volley against them! How else can you explain that no one does it? No is skilled enough? No one can serve?
