Agassi's Legacy

Well... Agassi definitely had some chances in the first set against Rafael Nadal - he saved several set points at 5-4 down and then had a 5-2 lead in the first set tie-breaker, but in the end Nadal wore him down and Agassi did look like he was lacking his typical mobility at times, especially towards the end of the match.

What's really impressive is how Andre has used his pedestal at the very top of international sports to accomplish things through his Foundation that may be his most lasting legacy. Sure Andre's won tons of tournaments and his feat of winning each of the Grand Slam titles at least once on three different surfaces (i.e. hard, clay and grass) aka a "career Slam" is way more amazing than his 8 Grand Slam titles. However, in many ways, Andre may be remembered over time as much, or possibly even more, for his off-court accomplishments ala Arthur Ashe. Learn a bit about what he’s done so far with his Foundation.
