Hall of Fame
Who in everyone’s opinion are petes top 10 rivals throughout his career?
1. Agassi
2. Ivanisevic
3. Rafter
4. Becker
5. Krajicek
6. Courier
7. Chang
8. Henman
9. Rusedski
10. Hewitt
Maybe edberg could of been included.
They are just off the top of my head. Hopefully other posters will disagree and improve the list.
I’m back posting on here after 3 years away. I hate how underrated Pete is now days. I also think most modern tennis is a terrible standard and poor viewing but I know I’m in a minority. 80s and 90s were such great eras. It’s actually abit of a disgrace how Sampras is spoken about. I still think Djokovic and nadal wouldn’t have won more than 14 grand slams in the 90s with the surfaces, rackets, balls, surface specialists and deeper competition. Federer is maybe a different matter but I’d still back Sampras head to head.
