And it’s hard to seek answers from a more reliable source, with Graf and Agassi winning no less than 30 Grand Slam singles titles between them.
Germany’s Graf was the women’s world number one for a record 377 weeks and dominated for much of the 1990s until her retirement at the end of the decade.
She won 107 career titles, including 22 Grand Slam triumphs, as well as a singles gold medal at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul.
Graf’s most powerful weapon was a blistering forehand, which, combined with a strong serve and crisp volley skills, made her a formidable opponent against Martina Navratilova and Monica Seles with whom she shared an intense rivalry .
After retiring, she married Agassi in 2001 with whom she has two children, Jaden Gil and Jaz Elle.
Agassi, born in Las Vegas, was destined for stardom from a young age. His charismatic approach and on-field appearance quickly brought him huge success when he rose to prominence in the late 1980s.
He won his first Grand Slam title at Wimbledon in 1992 and has won eight in total, completing a four-major Grand Slam with victory at the French Open in 1999.
Like his wife, Agassi also reached world number one and won Olympic singles gold in Atlanta in 1996.
He retired in 2006, but made headlines again last year with the publication of his explosive autobiography “Open,” in which he admits to failing a drug test in 1997 but claims it happened at a time when his personal life was in turmoil.
Agassi also claimed that he “hated” tennis because of the pressure placed on him by his father during his formative years.
He is now rarely seen on the field, apart from an occasional appearance on a senior circuit or in charity tournaments.
But Agassi and Graf teamed up last year to play a special mixed doubles match against Tim Henman and Kim Clijsters to christen Wimbledon’s new roof.
Now is your chance to get the opinions of two of the greatest tennis players of all time.
