The American played with an 85 inch head through his career and when he used a larger frame during his retirement, he said the racquet felt like cheating.<\/p>\n

Now that Roger Federer has switched to a larger racquet<\/a> at the end of his career, Sampras says, \u201cI don\u2019t know where his head\u2019s at, whether he\u2019s going to stick with it.<\/p>\n

I wish I would have tried it, at least a little bit on the clay, when I was playing. It would have helped me a little bit.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sampras also said in an interview that he believes the seven Wimbledon<\/a> singles record he shares with Federer will not be broken for a while.<\/p>\n

\u201cRoger and myself, our game on grass was so \u2026 dominant. I think Murray can win some more<\/a> and Djokovic, but I don\u2019t think that dominant game is out there that\u2019s going to win it seven times.\u201d \u2013 Tennis World<\/a><\/p>\n
