Did he steal your girlfriend at school or something?
Nah.He just got trumpeted by everyone (including some on here - but mainly the media) as the 'real deal'.

He's clearly better than Henman and if he's going to win a Slam it'll be on a hard court. He certainly has an issue when the pressures on but having players like Fed and Nadal around doesn't help although he's beaten both multiple times.
...and Henman would beat Sampras etc in the smaller tournaments.im said:

I dont remember Henman beating Sampras that often in any tournament and certainly not to win them. So statos out there, how often did he manage it?
And as good as he was, I don't think Sampras was in the league of Federer and Nadal...JNW1 said:

And as good as he was, I don't think Sampras was in the league of Federer and Nadal...On the Aussie Open I think Murray must be favourite to beat Ferrer but will be interesting who comes through from the other semi-final this morning; based on form thus far in the tournament I can see Djokovic beating Federer but we'll see!
Must admit Im not sure where this anti Sampras thing comes from. Nadal wouldnt have seen which way Sampras went at Wimbledon and Im not terribly sure he would fare much better against him at the US. Federer has the more natural game to take him on, I think they would probably end honours even at Wimbledon and the Fed to shade it elsewhere. Possibly.
But if we are going to talk across the eras then the games I want to see are Superbrat v The Fed.

Agreed a lot of people seem to have a dislike of Sampras, he was/is one of the greatest players of all time and a decent chap...But if we are going to talk across the eras then the games I want to see are Superbrat v The Fed.
I think you have it pretty spot on in theory there, utterly dominant on grass, almost as good on hard courts:
7 Wimbeldon, 5 US, 2 Aus, only failed (relatively speaking) on clay but very few players are good on all surfaces
