Pete Sampras's win over Roger Federer in Macau at Venetian this weekend. Following two defeats last week in their three-match Asian exhibition series in Kuala Lumpur and South Korea, the retired Sampras came back strongly at Macau's Venetian, defeating the Swiss maestro in straight sets, 7-6, 6-4.

費德勒對桑普拉斯的最後一站表演賽

今日下午二時在澳門威尼斯人綜合館舉行的費德勒對桑普拉斯網球世紀之戰﹐此前在首爾及吉隆坡連輸兩場的桑普拉斯終于對費德勒贏回一場﹐挽回了“老天王”的面子。三十六歲的桑普拉斯已退役多年﹐對比他年輕十歲的費德勒﹐ 費德勒在當今網壇正如日中天。新老“天王”網球爭霸戰盡管是商業味十足﹐但仍有相當大的號召力﹐這次表演賽吸引港﹑澳球迷及訪澳游客上萬人蒞場觀戰。

兩人的比賽首盤你來我往﹐在“搶七”階段最後兩個球才分出勝負﹐首盤桑普拉斯七比六小勝。第二盤四比四後桑普拉斯破了費德勒的一個發球局﹐用時七十五分鐘最終六比四獲勝。總比分二比零。比賽整場氣氛輕松﹐桑普拉斯在比賽中還讓球童代擊一球。場上兩人打出不少精彩的攻防。
