Se ʻO John McEnroe noonooia punk o ka lākeke, Andre Agassi - ana e hana ai i kēia lā Nā makahiki 50 - he ʻoiaʻiʻo nō ia ka hōkū pōhaku ʻāʻī. Ka mea i ka huli o 80s a me 90s loaʻa hoʻopūʻiwa i ka austere honua o ka tennis, ʻaʻole wale me kāna pāʻani kamahaʻo, akā me kona lauoho lōʻihi a huluhulu, nā apo pepeiao a me nā lole haʻuki gaudy. Ua hui pū ʻo McEnroe i nā tālena kaulike ʻole ʻia me ka rudeness aliʻi like ʻole: sublime a pololei ʻole, hapa ma waena o ka ʻānela a me ka diabolō.
Ua hakakā ʻo Agassi me nā daimonio ʻē aʻe: ka makuakāne hoʻomāinoino, ka aloha-inaina no kahi aʻo i koho ʻole ʻia, ka pilina me ke aniani a me kāna aniani. Akā ma mua o nā mea āpau āna i hoʻolimalima mau ai he paio kūʻē iā ia iho ka mea, i ka papa o iwakālua mau makahiki o ka ʻoihana, ua ʻike ʻo ia hāʻule a kū i luna i mau manawa. ʻO kahi puahiohio o nā manaʻo hakakā i hoʻi i hope ka mea pāʻani leʻaleʻa i nā makahiki i hala aku nei he moʻolelo pilikino ponoʻī, Open, ka mea i hoʻokuʻu hope iā ia mai kāna wā paʻakikī i hala.

Mai ka wā kamaliʻi, ʻo Agassi ka mea pāʻani maikaʻi. Hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻia e kahi makuakāne hoʻomāinoino a hoʻokalakupua hoʻi, nāna i makemake iā ia e lilo i helu ʻekahi i ka honua i kēlā me kēia kumu kūʻai. "Inā kū ʻoe i nā kinipōpō he 2500 i kēlā me kēia lā, ʻo ia ka 17.500 o ka pule, ʻo ia he miliona mau kinipōpō i ka makahiki, hiki iā ʻoe ke lilo i helu ʻekahi", ʻo kā Phil Mike kālaiʻike kēia. He aha ia hoʻomaʻamaʻa hoʻomāinoino ʻole i ka pā o hope, kūʻē i kahi ʻano o ka mīkini kuha kolo o kāna hana ponoʻī. Kapa ʻia ʻo "The Dragon".
I ka makahiki 13, ua hoʻouna ʻia ʻo Andre i ke kula ʻālapa o ka moʻolelo kaulana ʻo Nick Bollettieri - haku o ʻO Pete Sampras, ʻO Monica Seles e ʻO Serena Williams - nāna i hōʻole e uku ʻia, no laila ke akamai a me ke akamai ka ʻōpio ʻo Agassi. Pōkole ke ala i ka ʻoihana. ma 16 ua eo i ka mea pāʻani kinipōpō nā moʻolelo junior āpau a ma 18 ua loaʻa iā ia ka semifinal ʻelua o ʻO Roland Garros kēlā o ka US Open ma 1988.

Nā hana o ke kipi
ʻAʻohe kanalua i kēlā ʻO André Agassi - mai kāna kūleʻa mua ma ke kahua - ua pani kahi wai nui ma waena o 90 a me ka tennis. Ke hāpai nei i hoʻokahi kipi loea maoli: hoʻokumu ʻia ma dribble f e oe he pane make i ka lawena. ʻO kēia no ka nele i ka mea kaua o ka mua a me ka lua (lawelawe) ikaika. No laila, hoʻoholo ma kahi o e kia i ka ʻino o ka pōpō, e hoʻohuli i ke ala e hāpai ai i ka pane mai kahi manaʻo pale ʻole wale. ʻO kēia intuition, i hui pū ʻia me ka hiki i ka pupule ke hele i mua o lalo, i hana i ka hanauna keiki Las Vegas ma mua he mea pāʻani kinipōno hoʻokahi.

Me nā lanakila mua - ka poina ʻole lanakila a Wimbledon i ka 1993 - Hoʻomaka ʻo Agassi e lilo i hanana maoli. Ma a ma waho o ka pitch. Kona mullet leonino - a laila lilo i mea lawelawe - lilo i ka nānā e kope. A i ka manawa like ma nā māla e hoʻokuʻu ʻo ia iā ia iho e hoʻowalewale ʻia e ka honua a me nā VIP. ʻO kāna aloha i 1992 me Barbra Streisand i kamaʻilio nui ʻia, kokoke he kanakolu mau makahiki a ʻoi naʻe i wehewehe ʻia e Agassi ma ke ʻano he "pele paila maoli". Koke ma hope o ka manawa o ka ʻO Brooke Shields.
Mahalo a lili ʻia, ka Agassi lāua ʻo Brooke ua komo lākou i ka makahiki 1993 - pololei i ka manawa Hoʻomaka ʻo Andre e lilo kāna akāka o ka pāʻani. Hele pū nā mea hāʻule me nā hōʻailona hōʻailona mua o ka wahine. Lili loa lāua - ua wāwahi hoʻi ʻo ia i ke pola saladi Wimbledon i ka wā o kahi hoʻopaʻapaʻa - alualu kekahi i kekahi i ko lākou manawa manawaleʻa. Aia nō i 1997 ua male lāua, ʻoiai ma ke kūlana ATP ua hina ʻo ia i kahi o 141. Ua hala ʻelua mau makahiki - akā he Agassi hou - mahalo i ka haʻalele ʻana i ka toupee, makaukau e ala aʻe mai ka lehu.

Ka hānau hou ʻana
I ka makahiki 1999 ua pūʻiwa ʻo Agassi i ka honua lanakila ana i ka ʻO Roland Garros mahalo i ka hoʻi hope kūʻē iā Medvedev. Ke hele nei ʻo ka lima o ka mea pāʻani i ka mōʻaukala e lanakila ma ka liʻiliʻi o kēlā me kēia o nā hoʻokūkū ʻehā Grand Slam. ʻAʻole wale: i ke kauwela ua lanakila ʻo ia i ka US Open, pēlā e hoʻi ai i ke kūlana mua i nā kūlana. Hoʻopili pū ʻo ia i nā lanakila haʻuki hou he mālie i loaʻa hou ʻia ma kahi pilikino, mahalo i ka hānau ʻana o ke aloha me kāna hoa hana ʻo Steffi Graf.
Nā mea like like, ma waho o ka raketa: mai ka hoʻokaumaha a nā mākua kāne i ka hopohopo hoʻokūkū o ka hana ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi a me ka maikaʻi. Ua male lāua ma 2001, me Steffi hāpai me kā lāua keiki mua, ʻo Jaden, i hānau ʻia he ʻehā wale nō lā ma hope. Manawa Lanakila ʻo Andre i ka makahiki 2003 ka walu o ka Grand Slam ma ka Australian Open, hauʻoli pū me kahi hānau hou: kaikamahine ʻo Jaz.
ʻO kekahi mau hōʻeha, a me ka emi maoli o ka hana kino, ke kuleana no ka hoʻomaha loa ma 2005. Akā ʻo ka lanakila maikaʻi loa no Agassi e hiki mai ana. ʻAʻole kēia he trope akā hoʻokahi ka catharsis hope loa, lanakila me ka paʻi ʻia o ka autobiography Open i ka 2009. Ma mua loa o ka papa a me ka hōʻoluʻolu memo, like ka puke me kahi kau loiloi loa kahi a ka mea koa ʻole e makaʻu ai e hōʻike i ʻaoʻao ʻeleʻele o kona ola ʻana. Ma hea, me ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻole disarming, Hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻo Agassi i kāna mau daimonio āpau - nā lāʻau, kaumaha, inaina - me ka makaʻu ʻole e hōʻike iā lākou i ka honua. He hoʻokuʻu maoli no ka hōkū pōhaku aloha loa o ka tennis.
ʻO ka ʻatikala ʻO Andre Agassi, ke kime Tennis kipi i hala i 50 me he mea lā ʻo ia ka mea mua ma iO Wahine.
