Pete Sampras practically owned Wimbledon during the 1990s. Sampras not only won
six Wimbledon trophies (1993-1995, 1997-1999), he also won the Australian Open
(1994, 1997) and U.S. Open (1990, 1993, 1995, 1996). Sports Illustrated called
him the best male tennis player of the century, edging out Bill Tilden, whose
glory years were in the 1920s. At the end of the decade Sampras had won sixty-
one career titles and spent more weeks as the top-ranked player than anyone in
history. This decade also saw Andre Agassi win his first grand slam title and
his first and only French Open. The book recaps the top 10 male tennis players
in 1990.
