THE HIT LIST
Nearly two years after leaving the game, Pete talks about some of the
things he’ll never forget
5 Most Memorable Matches
1. Early 1980s, a first-round junior match in San Diego. “I drove down
with my dad. I lost 6-0, 6-0 and cried the whole ride home.”
2. 1992 U.S. Open final; Stefan Edberg d. Sampras. “The match that turned
my career around.”

directions after this one.”
4. 2000 Wimbledon final; Sampras d. Pat Rafter. “The record, sure, but it

meant a lot.”
