Pete Sampras Serve – What’s the Secret?

Beautifully fluid yet deadly. One of the most recognizable strokes the game has ever produced. The Pete Sampras serve.

Enjoy some slow-mo young Pistol Pete warming up his serve from an angle you don’t typically get to see.

The way Pete brings that 85 sq in. Pro Staff through the contact zone is unique. It’s a combination of his body tilt, bringing the racquet up and through contact while keeping his body extremely closed to the net, and using that forearm pronation as a source of power.
