    Do read Andre’s autobiography called Open. Helps explain his comments about the younger players ‘growing up’ under the spotlight and even his ‘bad boy’ label which is often raised but without context. One of the best autobiographies I’ve read ... you get a genuine feel for the man, the person ... and how Steffi brought him great love and happiness.

    Steffi is my alltime fave. Hard to imagine that she was still competing against Venus and Serena in their early careers. Graf retired ranked world #3 in a season (1999) in which she won the FO, was in the Wimbledon final and reached the AO Quarter Final. With a somewhat decent performance at the USO, she would have re-claimed world #1 position in 1999. But she had retired before the USO started.

    Heartbreaking to hear her say when they play tennis now they just try not to get hurt. It's a funny quip, but it always makes me sad that fierce champions one day will not be able to perform as they once did, especially 2 of the legends. When she was in her prime she was frightening! I felt sorry for everyone playing against her, including Monica seles.

    Honestly, Agassi was never really a "wild child" or a "bad boy" of tennis. He was pretty well-behaved, and only his clothing style seemed remotely rebellious at the time. It's become a sort of false cultural memory that he had tantrums and blow-ups like McEnroe or Kyrgios.

    She's so much warmer and more accessible now.

    I've always admired Steffi's nose and the fact she never altered it. The mark of someone very comfortable with their self image.
    Most people with her celebrity and wealth would have had cosmetic work done.

      I always liked her imperfect nose.
      Otherwise she would have been too perfect.

    I don’t remember Agassi as a “bad boy.” I remember him as being a bad dresser, but he got over that.

    All the money and fame and they both understand that it means nothing. Being the best people you can be and helping others and taking care of your family is what matters. Especially for what Andre went through growing up he's probably always going to remember that he's better and providing his kids better than he had it.
