34 titles is nothing to sneeze about. Underrated career

Jack Daniels would not say underrated, but rather under-looked. Chang was under the huge shadow of Pete and Andre, who not only were much better tennis players, but were far more marketable, specially Agassi. Then you also have Jim Courier, who between 91 and 96 was a force to be reckoned with, winning twice in RG and twice in Australia and reaching the finals of the other two Majors. He also accomplished more than Chang. As for Chang opening the door for them...I think that is partially true. Agassi was the first one to garner notoriety in 88 by reaching the semis in RG and the US Open, yielding to Wilander and Lendl respectively, the two best players in the world at the time and he went the distance with them.

660+ wins as to go with. Slam win and 3 other Slam RUP finishes. Several Masters titles. Reached 2 in the world. He was a really hard worker and a nice guy. He was like the Lleyton Hewitt of his generation, with a much nicer disposition.

Beating Sampras in the 1989 French Open would not have been considered a remarkable achievement back then. But the score! 6-1 6-1 6-1.

That's a BEAT DOWN of the number 1 player in the world. Having said that, it's a well-known fact that clay was NEVER Sampras' best surface. Pete never won a French Open and the closest he ever got in that slam was a single semi-final appearance. Chang destroyed him and played on his best surface (besides hard courts).

Sampras would play 3 RG quarterfinals in a row,he was doing pretty well on clay till the 1997,won Rome and Kitzbuhel ,but considering his grass and hard courts achievements it was nothing,his game didn't suit the clay especially the European.

Michael had three more shots at a major in his career, including a USO final which also would've given him the number one ranking. It wasn't to be though. The guy was tennis' version of the flash and played with a ton of heart.
