Andre "Kickarse" Agassi will retire from Tennis after this year's Wimbledon and US Open. I still remember the days he used to play in denim shorts heh. Yet another tennis great shall move on.

I'm sad already. I've been an Agassi fan for I don't know how long...

For more info : us open 2006, wimbledon 2006, tennis, agassi

Oh this is so bad news...
He's an all time great, not for the number of grandslams, not for the wins but for the way he challenges everything.

Sampras retiring almost turned me off tennis. I havent followed it as closely ever since, Agassi and Sampras matches were the essence of tennis for some 10 years, man those were good times!!

Well when i used to play tennis as a kid, kids used to model themselves after some tennis player. Some said, Goran, Boris, pete and i chose Andre...

i wished Pete would lose to Andre in the US open finals... and i think they met quite a few times in the finals/semis.

... the reason i loved agassi was .... he got Brooke Shields :)
