Congratulations to Roger Federer! He has beaten Pete Sampras 6- 4 6- 3 in the exhibition match in Seoul, Korea. The match in Seoul is the first of three Asian exhibitions the two legends played. After that match, they went to play in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia before finally playing in Macau.
All the familiar trademark volleys and serves by were on display but Sampras, who has won 14 Grand Slams to Federer's 12, was slower around the court than the 1990s and made a number of unforced errors. Federer took advantage of those to break the serve Sampras and take the first set 6-4.
Apart from three successive lobs (high shots) that Federer served up to his opponent in the second game of the second set, the game was competitive. By that time, Federer was hitting well and won the second set 6- 3.
