Sampras was rusty in the first one, but I heard he gave Federer a run for his money in the second one. The score ended 7-6, 7-6 in favor of Federer. Experts on ESPN were saying that Sampras was playing like a top-5 player. That's fantastic for a player who has been out of the game for 5 years and that too against a player as red hot as Federer. Go Pistol Pete!! Cheers! Ram

Enjoy the match. I would love to see the two of them in action on grass court rather than the artificial turfs though!! Cheers! Ram

well . i couldnt catch up with any of the 3 exhibition matches between roger federer and pete sampras .. i had my exams . so .was busy into my books :D ..on top if it .. i knew that federer was gonna dominate the sampras . as . federer is .. soo good .. n with sampras retired for soo many years .. it was hard for him to .. handle federer .. althou the last match . of the series was won by sampras .. but i think ... it was more of a case of federer losing it .. then sampras winning it ..:)

well, sampras won the last one. i am happy for him. however, the last much was a little boring to me and it made me feel like federer didn't do his best... but, i am not that professional so maybe someone would feel differently.

i haven't watched the show because i've been so busy lately, but that's like a dream match--they're two of the best players ever! i'm glad Federer won the first match, he's my idol. what channel is the next match?

I watched the match live in Malaysia!! It was way cool. In fact, it was hardly an exhibition cos Sampras made some awesome shots and his serve is still unbelievably strong.
