lol @ Richard Krajicek being the only thing standing between Sampras and 8 straight Wimbledon Championships

I was really fearing the future of tennis was going to look like this dude. Such a limited player and yet he took out the best grass court player ever

3 Majors, 3 different champs. Who's winning the US Open?

Del Potro

In all this Big 3 + Murray talk people forget that JDP stomped Rafa and beat Fed in 09

A 30 year old is now the number 1 in the world in mens tennis.

Damn, son.

 

[muzikfrk75]

That was fukking pathetic

I thought Fed was DONE after that...that Rafa had officially broken him.

But hey, title #7 today

you spelled Sampras wrong

 

[Gilver]

lol @ sampras.

No one outside of america would argue he was the GOAT.

You lot disgust me with your desperation.


As for the match, Federer was just too good, unlucky Andy

Fed is better than Sampras tho

 

[mastermind]

Fed is better than Sampras tho

not. on. grass.

 

[FaTaL]

Fed is better than Sampras tho

fed is a better overall player

sampras on grass or hardcourt

 

[malbaker86]

not. on. grass.

what are you basing it off of tho?

 

[mastermind]

what are you basing it off of tho?

Pete's serve

McEnroe quoted a stat saying Sampras held serve 90% of the time at Wimbledon. Thats unbelievable.


I think Fed is a better player tho, and is obviously the better all court player. But Sampras was unfukkwitable on the grass.

 

[Yapdatfool]

what are you basing it off of tho?

Probably off of:

1. They never played each other at thier respective primes
2. Fed never faced such real grass competition before like Pete did
3. petes serve and volley is so good on grass that fed could do nothing against it.

All cause we'll never know.
But as said: "men lie, women lie, numbers don't".
