Acupuncture to Sampras' aid

SINGAPORE, JULY 9. Pete Sampras resorted to acupuncture at a London clinic to relieve a serious injury that threatened his bid for a seventh Wimbledon singles title, The Sunday Times in Singapore said.

When Sampras stepped into the court on Sunday for the final against Australian Pat Rafter, he would have had eight sessions with Beijing-born acupuncturist Sun Yu-Juan, it reported.

Sun said it was former Wimbledon champion Pat Cash who urged Sampras to see her. ``Pete told me it was Pat who had recommended him to me,'' Sun told the daily in London.
