50 Pete Sampras Shots & Rallies That AMAZED Spectators! 

Pete Sampras is the reason why I started to develop interest for Tennis 🎾 His serve & volley is a always a treat to watch. He’s a beast who always looked to dominate the opponent with aggressive gameplay. And thank you Tennis TV. Happy 50th Birthday Pete! God bless!!! 🎂💐🎉

Probably the most iconic tennis serve ever!

Happy Birthday, Pete! Can't believe you are 50 now! I really miss your style. The game hasn't been the same since you retired.

The real Goat of fast courts.

My all-time sport hero, a legend, an efortless virtuoso.

Pete knew how to play the BEST tennis.He deserves the number ONE.

I started to watch tennis only because of Sampras, he made me to love watching tennis more than any other sports, and i was lucky to see many finals wins by him, really great moments, i was born in 80, best era of 80s-90s in my min.

Sampras c'etait vraiment une autre planète, quel joueur

Pete for me is always the greatest fast court player ever.

Before the big 3, Pete was the man! Wimbledon was his house. Pete and Andre are the reason why I wanted to play the game. Pistol is definitely one of the greatest to ever play the game!

Pete Sampras is a legend!

I really believe that if you took Pete in his prime, and put him in any era of tennis, he would have been the best.

I know there is a lot of hype around “the big 3” as they are recent/current, but I don’t want that to overshadow the greatness of Pete Sampras. My favorite player to watch of all time and (I feel) is truly the best player ever.

That serve and the way he closes into the net is unreal

Like Edberg, so graceful so highly underrated foot speed... also underrated touch volleys... Athleticism is what set him apart... and from this u can tell his competitive spirit was second to none in his prime... this all supported his amazing serve and forehand

Will always be greatest ever in my memory.

Pete had the greatest serve ever.

Sampras was the best. No one was like him since ,and today. I had the privilege to see the legend in my eyes.

Love Sampras- always had that look on his face- "Uh, yea- you DIDN'T think I could do that???" All business- all the time!

Sampras game looks like its coming from the future.

50 that didn't occur in any of his 14 majors! Some great touch. Pete was incredible. As an Agassi fan I loathed him back in the day. But looking back he was awesome.

Best American Tennis Player of all time.

Pete Sampras had tougher opponents than Federer now had

I bless you Tennis TV for being the greatest content maker and respect of tennis legends across multiple eras. Pete was the GOAT of his generation and while I find it impossible to compare eras given a multitude of factors, I feel that on his day (and depending on every surface apart from clay), he could fair very well against the Big Three. Thanks Pete for all the memories - your number one fan.

The real goat of tennis. Only player to dominate an era. The only player to stay ranked number 1 for 6 consecutive years and has a definitive winning record against all of his rivals

Best volleyer we have ever seen. Best serve? He’s up there. Pretty dangerous backhand too which is often overlooked.

his shot before net approach was very delicate and faciitates shot on net.

Sampras ,un ,,OM și un NUME ",gravat " cu litere de aur în inimile și amintirile tuturor locuitorilor ,,TEREI ". Mulțumim pentru liniștea și fericirea pe care ni le-ai transmis,fara să știi !

I feel like tennis is the most underrated sport on earth.

All my respect for the legend of coming into the net.

Pete - what a class act!

Pete Sampras, genius, talent, refined technique, undoubtedly the greatest tennis player in the entire history of tennis

Happy 50th Birthday to my idol! The man who is responsible for me falling in love with this great game! I still love watching his highlights even to this day.

Es un extraterrestre, hay demasiados golpes ahí que no tienen explicación gracias por subir esta maravilla de video.

Thank you so much, Tennis TV! Let's not forget how great Sampras was!

Awesome player. One of the all time greats.

Simplest smoothest service actuon, yet the most devastating and effective serve.

petros is my childhood :). best serve, volley and forehand EVER

Pete still the king of serve & volley absolutely

Number 9 , what a touch! Beautiful!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU PETEY ! 💝 From a lover of your magnificent attack tennis game

Greatest serve of all time, by far. Pete on fast courts was just impossible to play against, literally impossible. He was the kind of guy who could get away with not giving everything in a return game, because he knew he would win his service game anyway. And ohh yea, don't even get me started on his disguise. AND TO TOP IT ALL, HIS RACQUET WAS LIKE 85 SQ INCHES. Imagine his serve with today's racquets. Happy birthday champ.

poetry in motion

Sampras and I add Agassi here, were both ahead of their time in terms of power tennis, precision and playing with angles on the court. Sampras in his prime would still definitely win Wimbledon championchips today. Best service ever

years 80, and 90 ,Sampras and Agassi king of Tennis❤

Greatest overhead smasher ever, period. And that fearsome running forehand, you'd be always reluctant to hit to his open deuce court cos you'll be in heaps of trouble. It's amazing that nobody before or after him, serves quite like he did where he finishes his stroke with his elbow high.

Sampras the Greatest of All Times

The little kid that won the USOpen will always be my favorite

El Mejor.....un jugador sublime

Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi, Roger Federer played very beautifully. Each of them has its own technique. It was interesting to watch them. Many young tennis players of today play equally boring. Hopefully Roger will play more on the tour.

Second to last clip of Pete's backhand up the line after being lobbed from almost behind his back was a thing of beauty.

Such talent and style that is really lacking in today’s game especially now that Federer is pretty much done. Yes, there are a lot of great and talented players but you just don’t see this anymore. Not only great playing but so much class that is lacking these days.

Pete was born to be a top tennis player of all time. He was a master at anticipation and working a point. If he couldn't get to the net and finish the point he was still beating the best baseliners

Vous compterez le nombre de tournois du grand chelem mais Sampras reste Sampras. Le meilleur joueur de tennis de tous les temps.

Somebody forgot to include his signature running forehand cross winners in this list

Young pete moved like a freakin cheetah

Sampras' playing style is characterized by natural movement. Without agonized moaning after every shot.

There would be no Federer the way we know him now without Sampras.

No doubt, king of swing.

Point #7. Best serv and volley vs best running pass. Most amazing way to play tennis

The young Sampras was the most gifted tennis player I ever saw. He didn't work that hard at it, was never the best conditioned and didn't last as long as he might've, but his athletic talent was otherworldly, Greek godlike. At his peak it's fair to say that every part of his game was the best in the world. That's never been true of anyone else. And some parts, like his serve and running forehand, were the best of all time imo with no one really close. He had more power than Lendl, was quicker than McEnroe and could out rally Agassi from the baseline. There was never anyone to match him athletically. Even the big three, as great as they all are, can't match his serve and volley or all court game. Prime Fed is probably the closest followed possibly by prime McEnroe. But I believe a young Sampras would have beaten anyone in history, with the possible exception of Nadal on red clay.

On faster courts, no one even today could have matched him! Courts are slower now because these players like sampras, rusedski, ivanisevic, rafter philippousis were too dominant & ending the points too quickly!!

What do you think of Sampras's serve, Novak? Djokovic: Respect!

En su mejor momento tengo dudas si Federer pudiera haberle ganado

He was unbeatable on the net...

The eyes, hands, speed, anticipation, and accuracy. Awesome player to have had the opportunity to admire over the years of my tennis life. Always motivated me to be a serve and volleyer during college tennis.

I remember asking my tennis coach "who's style" I should play like at 5'8, he said I think Pete Sampras was around that height look at how he played. I was 5 inches shorter than him, but I played like him and it helped get my team to a state championship in 2012. In his favor even compared to to 2012 Pete Sampras was short. Any person in the USA in high school, if you can go from base line to net, you will win. I was ranked in the top 100 in the USA. As most know though after I turned down a couple of D-1 offers I was done, and honestly if you are getting TOP d-1 offer after college ends so does your tennis career, the USTA picks kids out that end up playing nationally.

One of only a handful of tennis gods on Mt Olympus

Number 10 point, IS the absolutely BEST atack point in history.

13:59 lovely to see Stefan Edberg! Great volley from him too!👍👍

Very smart shots

Pete walked so Fed could run.

And we still miss all his grand slams points.

If ya like Style, ya will love Sampras. :b

Some phenomenal shots, to be sure. Refreshing to see how great Sampras was. A key point here is that he certainly produced wonderful shots on his backhand wing - something many people might have forgotten. The common judgment is that his backhand was a liability, but it doesn't seem so in this video. At his best he had no major weaknesses.

Pete was the GOAT when there was multiple Slam winners, Becker ,Agassi,Courier, Edberg,Lendl , Kurten, to name a few the problem with today is there’s basically been 3 or 4 and the younger generation haven’t stepped up to the task. Either the competition is poorer or the best are too good but we seem to have lost a whole generation, and are on to a second generation now while the likes of Federer are hitting 40

Le dieu du tennis sur surface rapide

I know it's not the point of the video, but it's crazy to think that if Sampras had played professionally to the age that Federer is today he would have still been active in 2010

My favorite in Tennis Go Pete

very underrated one hander

Thank you very much.

*Point number 3 is out of this world.* *Pete was the king and the G.O.A.T. at his times.*

That double jumping smash is the most beautiful stroke of his ❤️🤩

The greatester

como me gustaba sus partidos aún los sigo viendo

Pete Sampras is to tennis what Garry Kasparov is to chess. Phenomenal legend!

Millie: It was Pete Sampras n Agassi who I've watch so often get me interested in tennis up till now n no match has ever pass me with the upcoming young guys as an old 🦶

Ahora ya entiendo porque Federer y Djokovic son hinchas de Sampras, wow

I thought the #1 point would be the Match Point against Becker in the 1996 ATP Final.

Get 51 - Davis Cup Overhead Slam Dunk Against Rafter. It was legend.

Best ever

didn't like pete back in the day and these videos remind me why. amazing player and underrated

Another crazy stats , Boris Becker met Pete 3 times in Wimbledon and never ONCE broke his serve !

Sampras secret food to success was:🍔🍟🍕something to think about🤔

GOAT

Sampras the goat in his time definitely in his prime but just like any other sports u have different player s an time had evolved an move in Sampras records have been broken but can't take nothing from him he is one of the goat s along side Federer an Nadal Novak

When you imagine in 38 that he give up the point for a milliesecond because the net touching, but still have enough Mouvement to get and win it on this Speed Level, than There comes "this something special" out

The Best 🎉

Pete Sampras el rey del swing
