Andre Agassi is 43 today and he still knows how to throw down

Chang, Sampras, Courier, McEnroe and the master blaster from Vegas – America doesn’t produce ‘em like they used to.

ANDRE AGASSI WON the hearts of many tennis supporters over a career that spanned almost two decades and included a career Grand Slam.

Upon retiring he penned Open, a gut-wrenchingly honest account of a life committed to a sport he loved and hated in equal, emotional measure.

The Las Vegas native is 43-years-old today and still licking back returns with a sonic-boom thwang. Here is our three clip tribute to the man that brought some flamboyance, and toupee glue, to the prissy world of professional tennis.
