	Pete Sampras - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sampras was born in Washington, DC, and is the third son of Sam and Georgia Sampras, Greek immigrants from Sparta to the United States.
		Sampras' older sister Stella is head coach at UCLA and his younger sister, Marion, is a teacher in Los Angeles.
		Sampras' business-like attitude to tennis and cautious handling of the press led critics to bemoan his lack of charisma, but his natural talent and work ethic meant that Sampras was always able to let his results speak for themselves.

	A Cold, Hard Look at Pete Sampras
		Sampras suggested after the Davis Cup injury that the accumulation of many long seasons of play -- remember he has been near or at the top of his sport for eight years -- which are starting to take a toll on his body and give rise to increasingly numerous injuries.
		Pete's solution to this situation is to play even fewer tournaments this year than he did in 1997, when his schedule was already considerably lighter than that of other top five players such as Bjorkman and Rafter.
		Pete Sampras is one of the premier talents in tennis history, and if anyone is capable of rising to the challenges now facing him, it is he.

		While their son, Pete, is certainly no stranger to Wimbledon, having become the first player of the last Century to win six titles on the famed lawns of the All England Club, his parents have never been in attendance to watch their son accomplish any of those victories.
		Sampras, who after years of residing across country in Tampa, Florida recently moved back to his Los Angeles roots, admitted at the Davis Cup quarterfinal tie against the Czech Republic held in his hometown, that he regrets his parents have missed out on being around the tour.
		While Sampras is confident that more good times are ahead, hopefully including at least that record breaking 13th Grand Slam trophy if not more major titles, he understands how truly lucky he’s been throughout his career.

	JockBio: Pete Sampras Biography
		Pete Sampras won more Grand Slam singles titles than any man living or dead, and he did it in the game’s most competitive era.
		Pete’s father had two careers, one as an aerospace engineer for the Department of Defense and a second as part-owner of a delicatessen.
		Pete was given little chance of winning this match, which was billed by the press as a “passing of the torch.” The torch was passed, all right, just long enough for Roddick to get burned.

		Sampras wins his 28th consecutive Wimbledon match (and improves to 53-1 at the All England Club over the past eight years) to surpass Roy Emerson for the most Grand Slam titles (13) and tie Willie Renshaw for the most Wimbledon titles (seven).
		In final, which was interrupted twice because of rain, Sampras served 27 aces at up to 133 mph and fought a 4-1 deficit in the second-set tiebreaker, all while playing with acute tendinitis in his left shin, which prevented him from practicing between matches.
		Washington: "Pete's ability to come from behind in that second-set tiebreaker goes to show you why Pete is Pete -- he can somehow perform at the absolute top of his game when he needs it the most and at the absolute biggest moments.

		Pete Sampras, an owner of an unsurpassed 14 Grand Slam singles titles, will make his retirement from tennis offical on Monday, where he will be honored in a ceremony at the US Open, organizers confirmed Thursday.
		Sampras said in July that he would not defend his US Open title, a decision widely seen at the time as virtual confirmation that he would not return to tennis.
		Tennis today is a game of boom ball....enormous serves, short rallies, racquets that hide flaws and enhance power.Players from other eras had to rely more on brains and cunning,with a deeper repetoire of shots, to compensate for lack of power and size.Witness, the great Ken Rosewall, and his exceptionally accurate backhands.

	Pete Sampras Tennis Article
		While not doubting for a second that ecstatic is how Pete feels when he wins a major, I do question what he has given up in order to become the best, possibly of all time, has been a sacrifice.
		For instance, in the case of Sampras, it's been well documented that even as a young boy he held the dream of becoming a top tennis player.
		Sampras established very early on in life exactly what he wanted for himself, and then proceeded to make choices in his daily life -- choices like watching videos of Laver -- that would take him closer to achieving his long-term goals.
