This tournament was basically the fifth Slam in the late 80s, 128 man field and all matches 5 sets. Changed to a smaller draw and 3 set matches from 1990
not an athlete,,,sampras was the forehand I prefered better mover smoother..He still did good Agassi Vic Braden is my mentor as a coach,,, read his books
Never seen a more unflattering pic of Andre, as he looks in this screenshot lol. Not saying hes fat, but he looks more bloated than any photo ive seen of him.
Boletteri Tennis Academy. OH man.. good days back in the day. When Tennis Magazine always had a advertisement . Every KIDS dream to go there . Tennis was huge back then!!
semi-western. If you want to break it down further it varied slightly between full semi-western and a bit more eastern depending on incoming ball. Much like MANY players today.
@@datacipher thanks! I pick up the game again lately and feel completely different game now. My buddy hits high bounce top spin whereas mine is flat return. The teenage girl next court was hitting the ball so hard put me to complete shame.
I played tennis regularly from the ages 12-18 and know the game well. Agassi's consistent hitting at/near the sweetspot of the string bed is so amazing! No mis-hits! Super talent!
LOL. The internet - where playing tennis for a few years and not accomplishing anything qualifies you to pretend you can tell that from fuzzy old video! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mayotte had a brilliant head to head against Chang, 3-0. It underlined the problem Chang had throughout his career. On faster courts in particular, he could be smothered by more powerful opponents
I wonder if he would've been as 'popular' without the hair .. probably not .. when he went bald I think his sex appeal disappeared for the female masses
@@jeffreymacintyre2711 his popularity wasn't the same as far as female attention goes .. he was still popular tennis wise .. you look worse bald especially if you don't have the right skull shape and he didn't
I dunno - my friends and I were about 12/13 in 1995/96 after he shaved his head -- we all had crushes on him at the time - many girls in my middle school did.
Hard part is you have to time it so you have the time that so it's like hitting a fly on the wall but if you don't have the right time and rhythm you'll miss
I think I'm not getting as much back swing as the sky he keeps his arm a lot looser than mine and he really swings that thing like a fly swatter can only imagine that's how he's hitting the ball way out in front of his body and the s*** out of it
The sky beat Jimmy Connors and must become number one the world that's hard to do considering how good Jimmy Connors was beating back around at that time can only consider how good this guy must have been he was able to mix it up use a lot of spins and junk and that would throw their games off I think he the guy that beat him was Manuel Santana or did a background check that guy knocked him out that was one of the best Mexican Spanish players of the day this guy was an excellent diet hitting short angles which would run you clear off the court all day long
