Statue Petition

Petition for a Pete Sampras Statue

To All Pete Sampras Fans,

Pete Sampras, winner of 14 Grand Slams is a tennis legend who needs to be remembered not only by his tennis fans worldwide, but by all who attend the U.S. Open and all who see the Grand Slam on television. For this reason, we believe that a statue of Pete at the U.S. Open would be a wonderful way of giving recognition to his great tennis.

Please sign our petition to send to the USTA asking them to erect a statue of Pete at the U.S. Open in New York in recognition of his many years of great tennis.

Pete was the ultimate sportsmen. Gracious in victory and defeat. He behaved like a perfect gentlemen unlike other fellow countrymen who found it "cool" to exhibit no restraint. And no. wait. he won 14 grand slams in the process, a feat which even Roger Federer will find difficult to summount. There is no doubt that he is right up there with Michael Jordan and Mohammed Ali as one of the greatest sportsmen the world has seen and therefore it goes to reason that a statue should be put up.

It is only fitting that the greatest American tennis player of all time be honored at the premier American tennis center, home of the USTA. Not only was Pete Sampras the greatest player of his and perhaps any generation, but he should always be remembered for his great sportsmanship, humility and valor. A bronze statue of his inimitable serve is a MUST!

Pete Sampras is a living legend - a combination of exceptional dedication to tennis, unique character and a simple, decent man. Guy like Pete Sampras can be a real role model for young generation that's why I think it's a good idea to honour him with a statue which could be seen by all coming to U.S. Open
