Rennae Stubbs, the former coach of Serena Williams, reportedly made fun of Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf after seeing them play doubles together during a practice.
While his wife Graf retired from professional tennis in 1999, Agassi did so in 2006. They still enjoy the sport even after retiring, and they occasionally use the courts. Jaden Gil Agassi and Jaz Elle Agassi are Agassi and Graf’s two children; they were married in 2001.Andre Agassi shared a video of himself and his wife, Steffi Graf, practicing their doubles game on the tennis court on Friday on Instagram. A few hours later, Rennae Stubbs shared the footage again on her Instagram story, captioning it with a lighthearted remark about them being an ordinary mixed doubles combination.
This is a mediocre mixed doubles team! Stubbs captioned the photo with an emoticon of laughter.
Stubbs left a remark on the post as well, calling it the day’s best social media post.
“This is the day’s best content!”
Both Steffi Graf and Andre Agassi had outstanding careers. Agassi won 60 career singles championships, including eight Grand Slam victories, during his playing career. He represented America and won an Olympic gold medal in 1996.Graf also holds an Olympic gold medal, which she took home from the 1988 games while competing for West Germany. Being the only player to win each Grand Slam at least four times, the 22-time Grand Slam singles champion also owns the record.
In February in Hollywood, Florida, Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf participated as partners in the Pickleball Slam 2 against John McEnroe and Maria Sharapova.Pickleball players James Blake and Jack Sock joined the four tennis legends in the $1 million prize money competition.Agassi and Sock won their first point in the opening match by defeating McEnroe and Blake. In the second match, they grabbed their second point when Graf and Sock’s combination defeated Sharapova and Blake.
Leading 2-0 going into the championship match, Agassi and Graf’s squad defeated McEnroe and Sharapova to win the cash.Following the match, Agassi talked with USA Today Sports about the parallels between pickleball and tennis as well as how the increasing number of courts available to play both sports makes them more accessible.
The sports themselves are able to thrive and have fun in the sandbox. A tennis player has no reason not to be able to carry a paddle in their bag and use it whenever they want. Nowadays, courts are everywhere, and I believe that number is declining. Andre Agassi remarked
