Sampras had a more complete game hence the 8 more grand slam titles (for instance look at their backhands and returns). Rafter was good, but not nearly as good as Edberg. I remember one year (can't remember which) when Edberg lost in the US Open without his serve being broken.verbal97https://www.blogger.com/profile/02282148454169067288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-75085190981022682692007-05-30T13:53:00.000-04:002007-05-30T13:53:00.000-04:00If you're the Lakers, you're not making a deal wit...If you're the Lakers, you're not making a deal without a proven box office draw.
