The 3-6, 6-3, 10-8 win in this southern Chinese gambling enclave was the first time the two had played since Sampras won in the 2002 US Open final for his then-record 14th Grand Slam.
The fast indoor surface at The Venetian Macao arena favoured Sampras' attacking style, but it was Agassi who came out packing more heat in his serve, showing no signs of the bad back that required four injections during his final tournament, the 2006 US Open.
But Sampras, who beat Roger Federer at the same venue in an exhibition two years ago, recovered, serving an ace and using a delicate pickup volley to secure the second set.

They are giants in their style of play. The world salutes these greats. Sampras Vs Agassi will always be talked about. I always vouched for Agassi; he is my favorite.
