14 grand slams, no.1 for six years...BUT POOR SAMPRAS, couldn't win french open once :), just shows his greatness.....The way federer is going, sampras's record will be trivial in a few years' time. Idolizing Edburg, Becker and Ivanesevic while growing up, I didn't have much inclination towards Agassi, until he plumetted down to 200 in the rankings, took time off for a year or so, and then came back right at the top. I think that was inspirational for anyone who thinks life doesn't give you a second chance. Above all, it was only fitting that he got off Shields and got approval from the Tennis Queen. That makes him a much appreciable person now :).
