One of the greatest to take the court, Pete Sampras owned and match-used this Wilson Pro Staff tennis racquet during the 1990 US Open. His autograph is on the handle, the black Wilson "W" logo is on the face, and the handle is taped in salmon color, as Pistol Pete was seen with this same color at 1990 US Open, in which he won his first Open singles title. A perfect way to complete the picture, some of the strings a broken - a testament to the stress placed by a serve that was clocked as high as 135 miles per hour during his Hall of Fame career.
