Thats why I love this guy…

Just now in the morning I read in the newspapers that Pete Sampras, my all time fav tennis player, owner of 14 Grand Slam titles, completed a winning return to competitive tennis on Sunday with a victory in the Champions Cup of Boston, part of the Champions Series for former ATP stars.

Sampras rallied to beat Todd Martin 6-3, 5-7, 11-9 in the final.
Sampras, 35, dropped his first set of the tournament and trailed 9-6 in the first-to-10 tiebreaker before rallying. He closed the match on his serve when Martin hit a return shot long.

The kind of consistency and concentration this guy had shown on court was always superb, being while he was on the top of the ATP ranking and reigning Champ, or even now after he is retired for over 4 years.

Hats off to u 'pistol' Pete… u rock!!!
