Comments: Great book by Pete. I was impressed by the Table of Contents and the commentary he gives about the game and his part in the game. Sampras talks about what guided him down the path he chose and to do it with class and dignity. Amazing athlete. He was a silent ambassador that let his actions and ability on the court woo people. I respect the way he gives his opponents credit and also what he gives as his own personal assessment as to why he won and what winning meant to him later on in his career. Very well worded book from an all-time great.
