Tryst of the Tennis Titans

It’s about to happen: something I have dreamed of since that fateful day six years ago when the then indomitable God of tennis was toppled by a young, unseasoned, much too cocky up-and-comer. Who would have known that just a couple of years later I’d switch allegiances and root for the young Swiss sensation (the sport of tennis knew, having secretly crowned its next big phenomenon on sanctum sanctorum itself).

Time will stand still as two different eras and contrasting talents face off later this year in what will most likely be an exhibition of tennis artistry never coordinately witnessed on a tennis court (between them, Sampras and Federer encompass every shot ever hit with a tennis racket).
