I'm just curious, I'd like to know if someone of this forum had the great opportunity to meet Pete ? To talk him ???
Personly...never. I just saw him in real 4 times (Bercy 3, RG 1) and I was very happy, so I can imagine that meeting him is still more fantastic !!!
Hello Marine, join the fourm recently and i love all these great stuff about Pete, I think I am his biggest fan in the world, I try to collect everything I can put my hands on about him, my heart is still broken since he retires from tennis. I think he would be a super golfer, what do you guys think? I would to hear about anyone meeting him too.

never saw, never met
one of my biggest regrets.... had one opportunity (the year hewitt beat him in the open finals) but could not offered those tickets!! probably just as well --- I would have hated for that one chance to see him to be in that situation where he was losing so badly
he was the superstar by then, all other players seat together in one car, while he seats in one car alone , but may be its exhibition, the great sampras won the first round, but lost in the second round
i have also seen Thomas Muster and got his autograph, he is very nice and signed more than 50 autographs
Hey, Mimi, Totally agree with you...I hate it when Roger broke Pete's record on grass I hope he wont break Pete's grand slam records.. only 11 grand slams to go...No...I hate it when people say Roger is more complete than Pete

hey Lalitha, how come you change your avator to Roger , now Roger is giong to break Sampras's records and i don't like this idea
Roger will not break Pete records, none of them anytime soon, so dont worry yourself blueriver, and as for him been more complete than Pete, it is just nonsense, this is just John McEnroe running his mouth off as asusal, John never have anything good to say about Pete, if somebody else comes along tomorrow and start winning grand slams they will say the same about him been better than Roger Federer, give the guy a couple more years and then we will see if he can better Pete records, it is not always the current star that shines the brightest, somebody might come along next year and then we will be singing a different tune.
yes blueriver, hehe, I am not alone, yes only 9 slams is already enough for Roger, don't give him 11, the selfish mimi :devil:
he may be more complete than pete but pete's mental toughness is the greatest , always winning, thats why i admire him, always calm, no bad words, just let his racket does the talking

Mimi tell us where Roger is more complete than Pete? what has he won to date that Pete has not won, here I give you both there stats by age 23, judge for yourself,
what i meant was that Roger seems to have a more complete game than Pete coz Pete's backhand sometimes is not very good
but still seems no one at the moment can really challenge Roger, unlike Pete, who has Agassi/Chang/Boris to challenge him, so thats why I start to worry about Pete's records
but thanks a lot, Pete is still better than Roger at the moment

Here is Pete reaction about his records being broken, and I quote - These records could be broken but it will be very hard. Not to blow my own horn, but to stay on top year-in, year-out, it kind of has to be your life. Connors had that, Lendl had that, I had that. Lalitha can you post those photos of Pete from tennis magazine for us, thank you.
If someone breaks his recond ine day I prefer that it's Federer, I like him.
But honestly, I'm sure Pete is right, it will be very hard and it won't be tomorrow...lol (I'm at ease with that... )
Well, I've been trying to get a scan of it, since the mag does'nt an online one. But I scanned a couple of it and got a few more as well. Would get everything done by this weekend and would post it for all of us.
Btw, the couple of pics which I already have are more than 500kb. Anyone knows how to reduce the Kb size of a pic.
Another pic of him. This one is from the match against Courier in AO, where he cried in remembrance of Tim. Too bad, I had cut half the pic, so that to reduce the size.
thanks, i have seen this photo, i don't know why people always said he is a robot and emotionless
for me, he is a loyal and loveable person, see his loyalities to his coach!
