I'm sure many would say Sampras but concider this:
Mature Roddick served more aces and had a more imposing serve against the same opponent- see Roddick-Hewitt compared to Sampras-Hewitt.
Sampras himself stated that his serve got better with time, and that he was at his peak in 99 (for those thinking he played hewitt late in his career).
Roddick had a conciderably more powerful serve, even taking racket technology into account.
Who do you think most players would answer? I'm pretty sure Agassi would say Roddick... Fed probably Sampras (though 2002 Federer got aced by Roddick 14 times in just over 60 mins in Basel).
