A look back on Agassi's major triumphs on his 50th birthday

The Hindu  

Andre Agassi reached plenty of milestones in his illustrious tennis career and the eight-time grand slam champion had another to celebrate on Wednesday. US Open, 1994 Agassi's first grand slam title on home soil came at the expense of Michael Stich. Minus his hairpiece, Agassi added another piece to the jigsaw by seeing off old foe Pete Sampras 4–6 6–1 7–6 6–4 to win the Australian Open. US Open, 1999 A second US Open title followed in the final major of 1999, a golden year for Agassi in which he started dating Steffi Graf - whom he married two years later. Australian Open, 2000 Agassi got his hands on the Australian Open trophy for a second time five years after his first triumph in the opening major of the season.
