Tennis: Australian Open showdown for Agassi and Sampras?

Defending Australian Open champion Andre Agassi has been drawn in the same quarter as Pete Sampras, the Grand Slam record holder.

Their last encounter, won by Sampras, was a five-set epic at last year's US Open.

Mouth-watering potential four-round clashes may decide if the American legends are to meet.

Agassi is due to face Andy Roddick, while Sampras should play Marat Safin.
