I still remember seeing that - that was fucking sick (literally even, lol). Tennis is not like a team sport where if you're sick you can go to the sidelines, have other teammates carry the load or whatever - especially at that level, it's strenuous as hell and it's not like Corretja was a pushover at that time - was just a total testament to how great a champion Sampras was.
That said, the Federer/Nadal marathon Wimbledon final that saw Nadal upsetting him was pretty amazing too. The level of tennis in that match was probably bigger than anything else I'd ever seen.
