when he announced that he'll be retiring, i thought that it was just nothing.... i only got involved with tennis this year during the french open........so i didn't really know agassi that much... but my auntie told me that he was a great tennis player... anyway..... during wimbledon, i felt that it was ok.... but now during the us open, i now know that he really is a legend..... i kinda felt sad because i know that he's a really great player..... but i think that it's good that he retired becoz his back hurt..... and he's been playing i think since 1986.....

yes. he is a great tennis player. he was a class act. i am sorry to see him go. but i think that he realized that it was his time, and his body was telling him that it was time to go. in my opinion e left on a high note and he will always be the best to me.

Hi ! I am Japanese. I think Agassi is a great player.
Japanese tennis players have been impressed by Agassi.
Now Aggassi has decided to retire.
I think he has already did lots of great performance.
I guess he would like to do any other things for his rest of life.
It might be also good choice for him.
Almost all players decided to retire after their performances which used up lots of energy.So I really hope Aggasi will get the success for his new life.

Like all good things, Andre's time has come to an end. He was once on top of the tennis game, but younger and more agile players are coming up and an older fellow doesn't stand a chance. I think that he did much for the sport of tennis but his time has come. Adios, Andre! You'll be missed but there are others who will take your place. There always are!

As a great baseliner champion will say good bye to us and hopefully at his academy or where ever else another Agassi in a few decades will be on the tennis courts!

He was a legend in tennis. He was only one of the five man to win the some kind of grand slam trophy. If you have seen todays match you would have known how great he was.

I'm actually releived that he is no longer playing. With his back, he couldn't be competitive any more out on the court, and I want the guy to be able to walk 10 years down the road.

I watch the US Open too today. He was very emotional at the end of the match. It was touching to watch. It must be hard to face the fact that you are beyond competing when that has been your whole life. Oh, well, his millions ($) will surely console him.

I cried when he started crying in the return serve for the match point. At least he can spend time with his wife, kids, and the dog he promised them when her retired.

That it was an end of a great era of tennis. But I do think it was his time.
