Andre Agassi shares a light moment with Pete Sampras during a friendly exhibition


Former world number one Pete Sampras beat long-time rival Andre Agassi at the Venetian Macao Tennis Showdown 2009. This is the first time the two had played since Sampras won in the 2002 U.S. Open final for his then-record 14th Grand Slam. Sampras led their head-to-head 20 to 14.

The match was first preceded by a 45 mins timed encounter between junior no.1 Yuki Bhambri and America's leading junior Ryan Harrison.

Playing in front of 11,000 enthusiastic fans strong crowd at the CotaiArena, Sampras lost the first set 3-6, but rallied to take the second 6-3 and then finished off Agassi in 10-8 tie-breaker. The pair played against each other 34 times in their professional careers.

The two former No. 1s have 124 career titles and 22 Grand Slams - Agassi has eight and Sampras 14. Agassi is one of only 6 men to have won all four majors and also won Olympic gold in Atlanta in 1996. Sampras' 14 Slams was a record until Federer won Wimbledon this year.

橫跨不同年代的４位男網冠軍費德勒, 布萊克, 麥肯羅及博格在澳門威尼斯人金光綜藝館舉行的網球盟主第2站賽事, 同場上演３幕角逐。 近一萬二千個座位幾乎全場爆滿。 費達拿今次已經是第2次到澳門進行表演賽, 仍吸引過萬名球迷入場。 4名巨星昨晚合演三場表演賽。

去年桑普拉斯和費德勒在亞洲的連場激戰引起了巨大的效應, 今年主辦方原本請來了納達爾和費德勒在吉隆坡和澳門進行表演賽, 但由於納達爾因傷缺席, 主辦方隻能臨時叫布雷克前來。

第一場比賽由52歲的博格對陣49歲的麥肯羅, 兩人在前12局各自的發球局裡都沒有讓對手取得破發, 在比賽進入打到決勝盤的搶7, 博格率先破掉發球分一路取得5-0的大比分領先, 麥肯羅最終以2-7落敗。 博格在今次表演賽以７：６戰勝麥肯羅。

第二場比賽由瑞士球王費德勒對陣布雷克, 費德勒狀態不錯, 他在第3局率先破掉布雷克的發球局。 但隨后的幾局各自保住發球局。 費德勒與比歷克合演一場高水平的比賽, 最終由費達拿以6:4及6:4擊敗比歷克, 憑借出色發揮２：０擊敗布萊克。 這是費德勒繼本周早些時候在吉隆坡之后, 一周內第二次戰勝比歷克。

最後1場雙打賽事, 麥肯羅與布萊克則以１０：７勝費德勒與博格。

費達拿經理人公司宣佈, 費達拿明年肯定不會第3度訪澳門, 但這項網球爭霸戰仍會選址在威尼斯人。 明年將會有新面孔, 世界頭1、2位的球手是考慮之列。 希望每年都為球迷帶來特別的場面。 澳門表演賽是費達拿今年最後一個表演賽。 明年一月與西班牙「一哥」拿度、梅利、迪維丹高及巴拉克在中東表演後, 他將會減少表演賽數量。

4位球壇巨星將於今日啟程前往泰國進行第3站的表演賽。
