Pete Sampras' son will soon have a hitting partner. Sampras and his wife,
Bridgette Wilson-Sampras, are expecting their second child to arrive this
fall.
Sampras' publicist, Deborah Grimes, Bridgette Wilson-Sampras is pregnant in a
statement issued over the weekend. The couple's first child, Christian
Charles Sampras, celebrates his third birthday in November.
The 14-time Grand Slam champion announced his official retirement from tennis
in a ceremony staged on the opening Monday night of the 2003 U.S. Open.
Thanking his wife for her support during his two-year slump, Sampras
concluded his farewell speech by thanking the fans and then, holding his son
close to his heart, the noted Pearl Jam fan took one final walk around the
court while his favorite band’s anthem "Alive" blared from the sound system.
Though Sampras closed the book on his distinguished career on that August
evening, odds makers have already accepted bets on Sampras' son adding to his
Grand Slam legacy.
Six days after Christian Sampras' birth, British bookmaker William Hill set
the odds of the baby adding to his father's extensive Wimbledon championship
collection at 150-1.
"Nobody gets a better genetic chance at Wimbledon than Pete Sampras' kids,"
William Hill spokesman Graham Sharpe told Bloomberg News.
