As the Pickleball Slam 2 comes closer, Agassi shared a picture of himself and his wife at the Wimbledon champion’s ball. The picture was taken in 1992 when the two won it. In that year, Agassi was already swooning over the German player, even though they wouldn’t date for seven more years. In his book, ‘Open’, Agassi said that he was looking forward to it.

The former American player managed to take Graf’s heart a few years later, and the two now have a strong family with two children. Now, as they are about to face a different kind of challenge, fans gush over their picture.
