I never faced Pete (Sampras) in a match. I think from watching, his is the best serve ever. And he is the only guy that I would probably not take the bet that he would so often offer in practice -- he`s down love-40, says `10 bucks, I still hold serve.` I probably wouldn`t even take that against him. So many times he would come back and win. He would just put it on the dime. I also wouldn`t take the bets when we were just practicing our serves, he put just a tennis ball can on the other side, and says, `A hundred bucks for who hits more.` That`s not a safe bet with him.
