Pete Sampras announces plans to play this year's Wimbledon! "I noticed that there have been many people online claiming that Djokovic is the greatest grass court player of all time," said Sampras. "Well, it's time for Pistol Pete to dust off his shoes and show everyone how real grass court tennis is supposed to be played." AELTC officials have confirmed that a wildcard for Sampras has already been approved and they are just waiting for him to confirm.

Sampras also alluded to the retirement of an R. Federer as a reason for his interest. He had been mentally scarred by his loss in 2001 to the Swiss imposter and felt sick at the thought of facing him again while Federer was still playing. Wilson's Pro Staff line is also in need of a marquee player and Sampras quickly took to it, although it's hard to tell exactly which model he picked under the miles of lead tape slathered on the hoop.

Pete beat the Man of Cheese as a 35 year old, 5 year retiree with a dad bod. Why would he feel the need to prove himself again?

He had resorted to extraordinary measures* to soften up his opponent for that match, and there was no guarantee that tactic would work again.

*extraordinary = bringing him to the finest adult establishments Macau had to offer, even leaving a generous tip (gasp) to ensure his frenemy was well taken care of.

Oh wait, he tweaked his back picking up the rum while making another mai tai. Maybe next year ...

Excuses to cover the fact that he blasted more holes in the Swiss man than the cheese he was so fond of chomping.
