American tennis player Andre Agassi won eight Grand Slam singles tournaments and an Olympic gold medal in singles. He is one of only five male players to have won all four Grand Slam singles titles, but he is the only man to have done so on three different surfaces. He won the Tennis Masters Cup and was part of a winning Davis Cup team. He won 17 ATP Masters Series tournaments, more than any other player.

Agassi thrived at the U.S. Open, an event where he reached the finals six times and managed to win twice in his career (1994, 1999). Agassi could have had more U.S Open titles, but he had to face Pete Sampras, arguably the most dominant player of the 1990’s, on three of those finals and lost all of them.

The last time Agassi reached the U.S Open final was in 2005, when he had to face the player that has pretty much dominated the current decade: Roger Federer. The Swiss beat Agassi in straight sets  (6–3, 2–6, 7–6, 6–1) and won what would be the second of his four straigh titles at the tournament.

Agassi retired from professional tennis on September 3, 2006, after losing in the third round of the U.S. Open. Agassi is currently married to Steffi Graf and has two children.
