Krajicek Remembers 1996 Wimbledon

[@suatkayatennis]

Richard Krajicek played professionally in the 90s, and was ranked as high as No. 4 in the world. Krajicek won his only major title at Wimbledon in 1996 when he defeated Pete Sampras in the quarterfinal. He was responsible for Pete’s only singles defeat in the tournament between 1993 and 2001. He also reached the semifinals of both the Australian Open, in 1992, and the French Open, in 1993. The Dutch was a pure serve-and-volleyer, had a beautiful game and a service technique that was a real pleasure to watch.

Richard winning was just like yesterday for me. Good memories. I had hoped and wished he would win as early as 1991.

One of the most powerful players, he’s tall and serves really hard!
