Pete Sampras Rackets
The Sampras racket is the St. Vincent prostaff 6.0 85. As a result, his racket is sought after by collectors and is harder to find. Pete bought many of the remaining rackets for his equipment stash and prefers them to the newer Taiwon & China models. The prostaff 6.0 actually started production in Chicago, IL and these rackets are extremely rare.
The prototypes for the prostaff were the Wilson matrix and ultra rackets. Wilson also made a Jack Kramer, JK staff racket in St. Vincent and its also from the same mold.
