A few pieces of tennis memorabilia stolen from Pete Sampras have been recovered in a Los Angeles park, with police refusing to give much detail on the discovery.
Officials confirmed that three scrapbooks and an unspecified trophy were recovered after a tip-off.
The 14-time Grand Slam winner revealed only days ago that a lifetime of tennis trophies were taken from two locked storage units in west LA where they were being stored during a change of home.
Nearly 100 trophies, including his first from the Australian Open, were taken in the unexplained heist. The Los Angeles Times said that police won't comment on any leads they may have in the unusual crime.
Sampras said that he had not bothered to insure any of his stuff, since he was unsure of how to put a value on it. But one memorabilia expert told the Californian newspaper that the missing Aussie Open trophy could be worth from $100,000 upwards.
