Pete Sampras vs Andre Agassi | US Open 1990 Final

Pete Sampras against Andre Agassi. The biggest server in the game against the best returner of his generation. The proverbial irresistible force against the immovable object.

Sampras came into the tournament as the No. 12 seed, having missed the French Open and losing in the first round of Wimbledon for the second year in a row.

Agassi, seeded fourth and known for his blistering return game, was contesting his second major final of the season after a run to championship Sunday in Paris in May. He had made the semifinals of the US Open in both 1988 and 1989 and, like Sampras, was looking for his first Slam crown.

But despite a hectic hard-court season and a string of grueling matches to reach the final in New York, Sampras, just 19 years old, seemed anything but fatigued against Agassi, a man who had crushed him on clay in Rome the previous year.
