Agassi stormed into the tennis scene in the late 1980s and became one of the sport's most celebrated figures. His powerful groundstrokes, particularly his signature return of serve, coupled with his dynamic court movement, made him a formidable opponent on any surface.
Agassi's career saw numerous milestones, including eight Grand Slam singles titles, an Olympic gold medal, and a remarkable consistency that led him to spend over 100 weeks as the world's top-ranked player.
