Birth: | 29th April, 1970 |
Nationality: | American |
Profession: | Tennis Player |
Andre Kirk Agassi was born in Las Vegas, Nevada. He is an American retired professional tennis player and former World No. 1, who was one of the game's most dominant players from the early 1990s to the mid-2000s. Agassi had been called the best service returner in the history of the game. Described by the BBC upon his retirement as "perhaps the biggest worldwide star in the sport's history", Agassi compiled performances that, along with his unorthodox apparel and attitude, saw him cited as one of the most charismatic players in the history of the game. As a result, he is credited for helping to revive the popularity of tennis during the 1990s. In singles tennis, Agassi is an eight-time Grand Slam champion and a 1996 Olympic gold medalist, as well as finishing runner-up in seven other Grand Slam tournaments. Agassi was the first male player to win all four Grand Slams on three different surfaces, and the last American male to win the French Open and the Australian Open. During his 20-plus year tour career, Agassi was known by the nickname "The Punisher".
