Amazing Points VideosI'm not sure where to put this topic, but I found two short videos showing highlights of an old match: Agassi vs. Rios at the Grand Slam Cup in 1998. Some of the shots are incredible...unfortunately, Rios fans made this, so Agassi didn't win any of these points:http://video.google.com/videoplay...=4165333729528463017&q=Agassi http://video.google.com/videoplay...-4774106223464859944&q=Agassi Some of the points also come from their Lipton final in 1998 (I think). |

It's very nice to see those friendly interactions between players at the net after a good match | ||||

Thanks, I've watched it a trillion times but will gladly again  What a great commercial.
And that gasquet vid, I was watching that live, most amazing shot ever!!! Sooooo good. |
||||
| stevos14 |
Yup, at the nasdaq obviously, the famous one where venus finally beat serena. This is the moment I started liking tennis, because I heard on the radio (tennis is NEVER on the radio in Parry Sound!) that venus had won, and I watched the venus-sharapova match the next day, and the obsession began
Great memories... |

I was yelling at my TV when in disbelief when i saw that, it was F'n amazing |
||||
| J-man |
It was a great match. The cramping made it even more memorable
|
||||
| Benchwarmer1 |
if Gasquet won....
that would have been the greatest comeback i have ever seen, ever

You all know I'm an Agassi fan, but here are two Sampras-highlight videos of Agassi's matches against Sampras in 1999 (Los Angeles and World Championships). Absolutely incredible by Sampras (in both). This is what Andre means by Sampras at 100% making you feel like 60% when you're at 90%....

You've all got to see this latest Play of the Week from the ATP. Talk about transitioning from defense to offense... pure skill by Henman:
http://www.atptennis.com/global/videos/Tim_Henman_(12_10_2006)_ultra.wmv |
||||
| Benchwarmer1 |
it was more like defence to offence to defence to winner | ||||
| x.doublea |
Well, I don't think Henman was on the defensive when Lee put up that defensive lob; any solid player could track that down and smack it for a winner. I was more impressed with how close he hit those forehands and how quickly he closed in on the net... I wish I could do that. That's one of those plays which deserves more credit.... | ||||

Wow, talk about defense to offense! Absolutely incredible.... | ||||
| J-man |
Nice forehand by henman. He really took control of the point | ||||
| leftys_rock |
I loved that one too.  I would have acted just like Roddick did had that happen to me. Just too good!!

Just some fun for a great cause:

Here are highlights of the Federer-Nalbandian match back in Madrid. If you're wondering what Federer's best is, just take a look at that second set. Flawless, I have to admit.
