Thanks for your love and support 💕
@@eileentiernanthanks for your love and support 💕
As much as I love Fedal....Andre was something very special. We'll never see another one like him.
Sampras?
Seeing Steffi smile like that after the win is priceless
She's so in love with him she can't hide it.
5 set classic in less than three hours
Would love to see more from Agassi’s 4 titles at the AO!
Thanks for your love and support 💕
Andre was an amazing player. Complete on all surfaces. This was great victory against another great in Sampras.
Agassi an all time crowd favorite
Still my tennis hero!
Thank you Andre for inspiring me passion and love for this great sport from the late 80's to nowadays...
Thank you Legend👏👏👏
IMO Agassi had the best two handed backhand I have seen!
Not a bad forehand too !
The GOAT of ladies tennis and future Mrs Agassi with the big smile at the end.
It's like a different sport now, the courts were so fast and players played so aggressively. Insane ball striking from Agassi
Andre and Pete never liked each other. Great legends, amazingly contrasting styles of playing
Sampras respected Agassi and always spoke highly of him. For whatever reason, probably envy/jealousy at being 2nd best, Agassi didn't seem to like Sampras much.
@@pietrpiepir6444 Agassi was so much better than Pete.
Andre probably felt insulted being compared to some one-trick pony Serve and Volley player.
@@ciaronsmith4995 I say this as a huge Agassi fan, but Sampras' serve is the single most dominant shot in the history of tennis. Dude was serving bombs with the limited racket technology of the day. And not just the serve speed, but his placement was unreal and his service motion was so repetitive that it was hard to know just where he was going with it. Yes, his overall game was more limited than the other all-time greats, but he also had a knack for playing huge from the baseline on big points, especially that running forehand, and he hurt Agassi badly with that shot on so many big points in big matches. Other than in Australia, you just always got the sense that Pete was going to find a way against Andre.
@@tonyhughes110 It wasn't just that they were powerful - they were tough to read too. Sampras' serve is dominant but his game is incomplete. Terrible backhand, too dependent on serve and volley and never won the French. Agassi was better.
@@ciaronsmith4995 A lot of fantastic players never won the French, though. It was a different sport back then. The French, on clay, was drastically different from Wimbledon and the US Open, much more so than it is now. Now with the racket technology, slower courts everywhere, and even slower balls, physicality and defensive tennis is much more a part of the action. Tennis is largely a baseline war now. I appreciated the serve-and-volley games of the power players on the grass and hard courts back then. It provided a great contrast in matches with baseliners. Don't get me wrong, I still love to watch tennis now, but I will never love to watch it as much as I did in the Agassi era.
What an epic rivalry !!!
@@stoolpigeon4285 Not at all.
Andre was the better player and only because of Andre's drug issues did Pete win the head to head.
When it mattered Andre was better.
French Open buddy. French Open.
@@ciaronsmith4995that doesn’t mean it wasn’t an epic rivalry, it was one of the best in tennis history! For the 90s, this was the biggest rivalry in tennis and it produced some epic matches!
I don't care what anyone says, Agassi was the greatest overall tennis player of all time.
Fed. Andre is the coolest though
I can live with that
Finish 1 year in number 1(99)... Won Wimbledoon 1 time only...
Okay. But he’s not.
That's always a sign of intelligence. If you don't care what anybody else says..
Kids today just don’t know the majesty of this dude’s game.
Wow ... Incredible match...
Amassing,probably my favourite tennis player
the titan of tennis,
titans you meant
People used to ask me why do you like watching tennis? My reply Andre Agassi.
Absolutely agree with you👏👏👏
Faster balls and faster surface.
@@nathanjen3170 I do not agree. Jim Courier said, that the surfaces in Flushing Meadows played like glass. The surfaces were definetely faster. And you should try to get some balls of the nineties at that famous auction platform. You will be surprised.
@@vanlendl1 he was talking about the present surface....90's were definitely the fastest
2 cracking players 👏
Los mejores!!
Crowd supported Aggasi
Geez what happened in that last set? Did Agassi kick it up a notch or did Sampras falter?
¡Bravo!,dos jugadores geniales y totalmente diferentes,no como hoy en día todos jugando igual resulta aburridísimo.
If one really looks in between the lines and points, this match is how I believe the 2002 US Open final could have gone for Andre had he been able to force a fifth set. And he was very close to doing just that (closer than the final score line would suggest).
Sampras was in control whole match.
Spettacolare Agassi ❤
Thanks for your love and support 💕
One of the best semifinals of 00's, another epic was Federer-Safin in 2005
One of the classic tennis match - Agassi vs Sampras.
@2:28 brad gilbert with hair
Loved all the cuts to Steffi.
Pete really blew this match versus Agassi! Pete should have won it in 4 sets!
But he didn’t, they had so many matches, this one was won by Agassi!
Hmm I remember this match vividly. Andre took it from Pete on this one. Sampras didn't have anything left in the 5th
@@poisenopinionator it happens, both terrific competitors, I prefer Pete, but they had always fantastic matches of supreme tennis level, for that I appreciate them both!
He didn’t blew the match, Agassi was the better player that day and won it stupendously.
@@dinomijatovic3921 Pete was such a great big match player - he knew he had to bring his best against Andre....and in the slams he almost always did! haha (Andre fan, but had the biggest respect for Pistol Pete).
I was do gutted for Pete after this match. Remember it vividly. He had his chances in the fourth but didnt come up with the best serves. Similar to his third set tiebreaker in the 95 AO final. Still, Agassi won it from him after all.
misspelled his name in the title
usopen and Wimbledom Agassi he couldn't beat him on a fast track
The only tennis player to this date who completed Steffi Slam.
Some "serious" "contemplative" clapping from Steffi. LoL Sampras, definitely the inspiration of my brother's trademark running forehand!
Looked to me like Pete wasn't feeling well towards the end, maybe he was tired.
Whqt happened in the 5th, sampras got tired or discouraged idk.
Usually sampras is hard as nails to finish off.
Agassi was greatest at his peak...
Well yeah, that's what "peak" means lol.
@@LauncherSpiderMk7 I think he means he was "the greatest" when he was at his peak.
Because of love he has for Steffi and being loved by her. She is truly a person that he desires to be with . She gives him strength and a desire to be on the top of the game. Down to 141 raking back to number 1 !❤❤After with Steffi Graf, he won another 4 grand slams and remarkably in 1999 when he started date her he won French, US and was Finalist at Wimbledon ! ❤❤
@@ZiggyStardust49 Yep. Thanks.
Andre's peak was 1995.
Way better than the weak era we have now.
Bullsh**
@@wernerr.5532 He is right...
@@user-of6tl9cd5z What are you talking about? With Nadal and Djokovic we are still witnessing the greatest era of tennis since its invention. On the other hand guys like Alcaraz and Sinner already showed their tremendous potential. Yes the 90's were great, but not comparable to the Big 3.
@@wernerr.5532 they showed their potential like every next gen player since dimitrov but they still can't win two 35-36 years old players. I'm not even a novak fan but we all know that if he had played in this year US Open he would have won it.
Yoa are talking about Alcaraz, who lost to Berretini in this year AO, and Sinner who lost 2:0 lead to a 35 years old player.
We have novak who won almost achieved the CYGS in the age of 34, and in his prime he won 1 GS per year between 12-14. And Nadal in the age of 35 winning the AO after 4 previous failed attempts in 13 years, and who had doubts about keep playing or retire.
Yes, I'm talking about Alcaraz who has won five ATP titles this year, including the USO. This is just unbelievable for a 19 year old kid.
Agaissi
Agaissi
Djoko has more grand slams than both their combined..
Real Joker of Circus,not even come in top 10 if he played in 80s tough era.
Glad he destroyed Pete.
Andre was always better than Pete.
How ridiculous that the AO can’t correctly spell the name of a tennis legend. 🤦♂️
How long did the match last
2h55
Almost just five minutes short of three hours.
@@flaviencrozier thank you
@@SonateSonate exactly
Il mio grandissimo mitico Agassi ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@michellewilliams4702. Wrong! Sampras was in control of that match with a 2 sets to 1 lead after goose-egging Agassi in the 3rd set tiebreak 7-0 and let that match slip away! That's reality! Agassi played very well to come from behind to win that match, but Sampras clearly let Agassi "off the hook" in the 4th set of that match!
Was the match finished at 2-1 and tie break in the fourth? No. The match finishes when a player wins the last ball, so WRONG! Agassi regained control and won. Just like Agassi didn’t have control at the beginning of the match, Sampras didn’t have control at the end of the match.
@@nicolaschacon2707exactly. That day Agassi was the better player of the match. Sampras was better player during 2 sets only.
@michaelbarlow Just like you say Sampras goose-egging Agassi on the 3rd set tie break, he couldn’t do it in the 4th set, because Agassi played much better tie break than the first. So what’s the point? You don’t win a match just for goose-egging a tie break.
@@nicolaschacon2707 BUT Sampras HAD control of that match and let it slip away! That's reality!
@@michaelbarlow6610 no, reality is that Agassi took control of the match and Sampras lost control of the match, Agassi turned it around and beat Sampras.
Singles tennis matches are always between 2 people, you can’t say “Sampras let it slip away” cause that implies that there was no opposition at the other side of the net.
The reality is that Agassi did everything for Sampras not be able to close the match in the 4th and did it successfully, taking the match to a 5th set. Then Agassi got control over Sampras, overwhelmed him in the 5th and beat him.
There was a time when American tennis stars ruled the world. Now the situation has totally changed.
Yes now it's all Europe
Did they play in 1 shirt all 5 sets in that time? 😅 Also it seems one size bigger, why?
BEST EVER IS.NOVAC
The best tennis players, I loved both but my favourite was definitely Pete 😍😍!!!
Love Agassi! Andryusha Aganesyan для тех,кто поймет 😂
Spell his name right ffs. A year and no correction
@nicolaschacon2707. No, reality is that Sampras was "in the driver's seat" in total control of that match after 3 sets and "took his foot off the accelerator" so to speak, losing a totally winnable match! Period!
Andre Agassi + Pete Sampras = Rafael Nadal!
After all the speed he'd been taking?
Thanks for your love and support 💕
Did Andre and Steffi ever have a kid that played tennis or plays currently. Hell the kid probably comes out of the womb a 5.0 yeah? lol
Agassi 10 ans de moins, aurait pu être un problème pour le big3
Pete always plays better than Andre at the majors. This time he got routed badly.
Amazing match, yes. "Amazing comeback"? No.
I think you're confused..
@@ic5761 Simply being down a set and winning a tennis match is not referred to as a comeback. Agassi won the first set, Sampras the next two, Agassi the next two. If Agassi had been down 2-1 in sets and down a break or two late in the 4th, then you’re getting into “comeback” territory. If he’d been down 2-0 in sets then definitely. But that didn’t happen here. Just a great back-and-forth battle, no “amazing comeback” to be seen here.
@@DLundgren22 I think you are confused. There is no rule that says being down 2 set to love only qualifies as a comeback, if you are down any point in a match and come back and win, its a "comeback" so being down 2 sets to 1 and winning in 5 definitely counts. sorry.
Pete was classy Andre was trashy but man I loved his style of play.
Pete was classy?
Pete voted Bush, supported the Iraq war and refused to tip at restaurants.
Agassi helps impoverished kids in his spare time.
never liked Agassi when he was playing, never like him now when I watch replays ... troubled guy throughout his career and you can tell that just by looking at him...his face and eyes tell it all... terrorised by his father who destroyed the other 2 children ... he found someone to relate to in Graff , similar story ... on the other hand, Pistol Pete an epitome of what a tennis player should be. free to play this beautiful game within the limits of the tennis court and rules.
PIstol Pete was a jerk. Agassi was at least a nice guy.
Pete's first couch was a convicted pedo. Haha
Pete was terrible. Ruined tennis.
Thank goodness for Agassi.
