Highlights from a specific match need a scoreboard on the screen. Knowing the score gives us the full story and gives us context when a great point is played
Safin winning the US Open against Sampras was a little bit like Boris Becker's first Wimbledon crown. You think "Wow, this kid will dominate for years". And then he stays relevant and one of the best but seems to never fully realize his potential.
If you're going to use HD CBS footage, you'll need to show it in widescreen. I know it exists, you're just covering it up with those blue bars. Re-upload this in widescreen, please, and cover up that CBS watermark.
We're both thinking the same thing. CBS has aired the US Open since 1999 in 1080i and now in 2024 the official US Open channel cannot upload highlights of old matches in HD😔
Terrible highlights… highlights are supposed to reflect what happened in a match and you show more points won by the person who lost comprehensively in straight sets …
This is a disgrace. No score plus virtually no Marats passing shots. I dont get it, I would have been given an F in school and flunked the subject, probably even get fired from a job if I produced something like this for my assingment.
1. I originally thought that they upscaled this footage with AI too, but no, this is raw. They took this footage straight from CBS, you can see a faint CBS watermark on the top right corner. They covered up the watermark, and potential wide screen, with those blue bars on the side of the screen. 2. I can't answer this one.
Why the majority of the points on the video have been won by Sampras if he loses the match ? Maybe who created this video loves more Sampras than Safin ?
If you watch American propaganda about the war in Ukraine, you will get the impression that Ukraine is winning and Russia is hopelessly losing. Although in reality it is the other way around ;)

And not spoiling with the thumbnails.
Yes, unbelivable.
I don’t watch if there’s no scoreboard.
Absolutely.
Without a score on the screen ,its terrible.
Safin wins in clear sets and we only see Sampras highlights in this video 😂
Lol, looking at these highlights it feels as if Sampras was winning not Safin.
Great to see these posted with clear footage
Will be better in widescreen without those blue bars
Safin is still one of my favorite players to watch, so much skill!
It was great - until the video quality dropped so crazily! Miss Safin, so great to watch.
Why the sudden change in video quality?
the went from 2020 to 1980
Because first part was from CBS HD(it has different camera angles), don't know why they didn't show it of widescreen.
I was there. This was a spanking of epic proportions. I’m a fan of Sampras but come on…..this is so badly edited.
They are showing virtually no Safin winners. Most of the match was safin hitting passing shots
This station is probably only going to be nationalist
Will never forget that third set. He torched him.

Safin admitted once that he had a little too much fun, but not as bad as Kyrios.
He did reach another 3 slam finals and won 1 of them with 1 year of injuries in 2003. Also reached RG and Wimbledon semis and won 5 masters.
can you show the full match in 1080 please 🙏
This was the beginning of the dominance of the baseline style of player. Unfortunately pete sampras was a dying breed of serve and volley

these are sampras highlights??
these highlights are insanity ..... they're showing only highlights from the player who lost in straight sets ...

at least they're hd
Looking at this highlights everyone will think that Sampras is the winner…How bias the US Open channel is! 😂
Tremendous beating from a very complete player like Safin (Although in the highlights there are 90% of points won by his rival xD)
I'm from Mexico. I recorded this game on VHS and I swear it looks better.
I remember mary carillo commenting that Sampras didn’t have an answer for safin
did sampras' number one fan upload these 'highlights'?

Safin lost in straight sets in us open semifinals next year to Sampras
Loved how safin dismantled Sampras
Pistol Pete is my all time favorite!
And they say roger's era is weak, safin and hewitt federer's opponent had winning h2h against sampras
Pretty much just showed Sampras winners and nothing from safin. Safin won in straight sets.
Ok, two things: 1-Are they using AI now to upgrade video quality, and 2-Is that Tim Brando commentating?
1. I originally thought that they upscaled this footage with AI too, but no, this is raw. They took this footage straight from CBS, you can see a faint CBS watermark on the top right corner. They covered up the watermark, and potential wide screen, with those blue bars on the side of the screen.

@@official_rown I see, thanks.
How did anybody ever beat Sampras. These shots are nuclear
Sampras' backhand was ready for Safin to toy with it.
Such a slow and weak backhand here.
at last i thought i was seeing a match from 1970s
there was no hd tennis in 70's
Why the majority of the points on the video have been won by Sampras if he loses the match ? Maybe who created this video loves more Sampras than Safin ?
Because Sampras is an American while Safin is a Russian
If you watch American propaganda about the war in Ukraine, you will get the impression that Ukraine is winning and Russia is hopelessly losing. Although in reality it is the other way around ;)
Sampras forehand: any day!!!!!
No scores and that video feed changes from a clear one that was recorded on bunny ears. Do better US Open.
Maybe you should go record your own videos
@@ic5761 I'm sorry your sister uploaded this.
It's weird to watch a tennis match without scoreboard.
