Las Vegas --
It is as if he had meant to shock us anew each week: Andre Agassi was regarded for years as a clean man of tennis. And then this: First, he confesses that he took hard drugs - and now comes the next hammer.
Der Spiegel told the husband of Steffi Graf that he hated tennis.
His father had forced him as a child to the daily training: "I did not want to play and had to. It was the wrong life, it was not mine." And there's more: Tennis, he hated so much that he really missed it even after his retirement. "No victory felt so good as painful defeat." Only his great love Steffi has shown him how he brought balance into his life.
They should have helped him on the contempt of time. Contempt for its major competitors: Boris Becker.
He should in fact be really mean toward him. According to Becker's victory over Agassi in 1995 in the semifinals of Wimbledon, Boris should have said that Agassi is elitist, unpopular among his colleagues and get special treatment from tournament directors. This criticism still hurts Andre: "It was very personal, it left a deep wound."
