Pistol Pete vs. FedEx


AWESOME!..JUST INCREDIBLY AWESOME! AMAZING..actually beyond amazing!i'm still speechless! The venue was the Melawati Stadium, Shah Alam. It was an exhibition match between the current world number one men's singles tennis player, Roger Federer and the former world number one, Pete Sampras(YAHOO!!).The match was named "Clashes Of Time" (how appropriate). I had vowed to myself ever since i found out bout this match in the beginning of this year that i would go for it and pay what ever money to witness these two idols of mine play live, before my very own eyes and i did! The seats were AWESOME (thanks to my dad :P)!i was like 2 to 4 meters away from the legends! the feeling was just surreal! it was just SO GOOOOOD and unbelievable...i still have a huge appetite for more! this was my 1st time to a pro-like match where world class players play, and IT WAS THE WORLD NUMBER 1 IN PERSON!both past and present!WHAT MORE CAN I ASK FOR??
Alright enough of talking. here are some pictures and i think its self explanatory!

Pete Sampras
winner of 14 Grand Slam singles titles, 64 singles titles with a career price money of $43,280,489 and a HOT wife, Bridgette Wilson Sampras who so happens to be a former Miss Teen USA! (Lucky B**TARD)! my all time favourite men's singles player.



Roger Federer

Winner of 12 Grand Slam singles titles, 52 singles titles with a career price money of $36,007,078 and counting, possibly the greastest tennis player of ALL time and, mental strength and game strategy that leave tennis players around the world in awe.
