  • Pure class

  • everytime when iam down, i'll watch this video agian.

  • I miss him so much :(

  • Not going to lie, I teared up watching his speech

  • Steffi Graf doesn't seem to be emotional at all !

  • @chilgaia7-ya i thnik i went bit too far wid my cmnt sorry for dat bt u no dats kinda craziness v agassi's fans hav for him so i jst got mad seeing cmnts abt fedrere on dis video which is soo spl for fans lik me...n i dnt hav nthng against fedrer,he hav won far more grand slams den andre bt u no andre has won far more hearts den him.bt still v all hav our own choices..so peace.

  • Gracias por subir el video. Yo lo vi una y otra vez y me emocioné mucho. Me apasioné por el tenis viendo a Andre Agassi. Ahora admiro a Roger Federer y no quiero ni pensar en el día que decida retirarse. Saludos desde Uruguay. Rossanna

  • I couldn't stand it when Andre would lose a game and I couldn't stand it when he retired...

  • I have a question, how old were Sampras and Agassi when they retired? I heard Federer in an interview saying that he wants to play long enough for his children to see him play, this would suggest Federer aims to retire at 35/36 years old approx?

  • @guys wid top coments-u r in agassi's video so talk abt him bitches!!!n no1 gives a fuck if fedrer retires or die...

  • @freesoulim WOW,that's harsh and nasty. Federer is a champion and a gentlemen. Was never a big fan of Andre but now have a lot of respect for the guy after learning about his introduction to tennis by his overbearing father who pushed him in to a sport he didn't really want to play. I'm keen to read his book 'Open' and learn more about him. He really was a terrific player who wore his heart on his sleeve. Ease up on Roger,2 different personalities,that's all.

  • OMG THIS HAS ME CRYING THE CRYING WHAT AN ABSOLUTE AMAZING MAN

  • After reading "Open" this clip choked me up.

  • YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MY CHAMPION ANDRE!!!

  • Agassi is one of the reasons I fell in love with the sport.

  • eres un campeon,,,

  • Comment removed

  • What were the dislikes for? Was it because they didn't want him to retire, or because they did not like him? What's not to like?

  • You can tell he lived for the game. Its written all over his face at the end.

  • Comment removed

  • Wow!! Imagine if he won..

  • that becker guy's clapping cuz everyone is clapping.

  • @yossi341 No, Becker has respect for Andre, most of the pros do. They get to know each other and become friends to some degree. He was sincere with his clapping. Of course if someone didn't like Andre and was in that situation they may still clap, but Andre was pretty well liked and respected in the tennis community.

  • no there is no new becker in town. where the fuck is he now?

  • 1902 people are gay because they like the fact that agassi retired :(

  • i might stop watching tennis on TV when federer retires nadal and djokovic are boring to watch

  • @federerfreak4 Do you play tennis? Do you compete? Have you watched pro tennis for years? It seems like you do not because of the remark you made. It is awesome what Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic are doing. Do you know how hard they are working? How well they move their feet? The amazing shots they regularly come up with? It is awesome. Check out the doubles sometime to, that is another game all together.

  • Tennis its not the same without Agassi, is so fucking boring and uninspirational without him. Andre youre the best!!!

  • @rockerkid26 Agassi was special. His whole story from start to finish is interesting, inspirational, and successful. He deserved this ovation, and yes, you can see how much this means to the players. Without the fans these players would not be who they are, The players know how important and special it is to play in front of these people, and how they can be on your side or against you and make a difference in the outcome of a match. Tennis is not boring though, I see nothing boring about it.

  • @anthonygareth Yeah youre right in something. But in the part of tennis being boring, im not talking about boring matches or bad players. Im talking about the lack of different players; players with attitude, charisma like Agassi. Agassi wasnt a super genius like Federer, but he had something special. Sampras wasnt so charismatic, but his style of play was serve and volley, that was something awesome to watch. I think that tennis is actually boring because everybody plays the same tennis.

  • Andre simepre seras uno de los grandes te queremos .... tengo una sorpresa para ti en mi canal esta el contacto !!!

  • Isn't it ironic that Agassi, the greatest returner lost the last match of his career by being aced on match point . We will miss you Andre.

  • oh man i cannot imagine what will happen when federer retires

  • @totti440 the same thing... both are legends

  • @totti440 I don't think the effect will be the same. Agassi had a connection with his fans that I don't think Federer shares. Not that Federer is a lesser player or less deserving, but Federer's stoic nature lends itself towards less of that fan connection; whereas Agassi shared emotion with all of his fans. Federer may be [and probably will be] celebrated as the most dominant player of all time, but Agassi will be remembered like you see in this video.

  • @majorthompson1 Federer may have a stoic nature on court to stay focused,but your mistaken if you think he doesn't show emotions or passion!lwatch the trophy presentation of AO 2009 when he lost but also the basel trophy presentation 2011 when he won!

    Nadal and Djokovic show much more emotion on court but still it clearly seems that Federer got more fans than anybody else!

  • @totti440 im sure for my self, i'm quiting watching tennis!

  • neither I

  • @totti440 Cheers that he is finaly gone and someone that is fun to watch takes his place.

  • i hope Federer never retires! this moment will be unbearable :(

  • I can't do nothing about it, it just moves me

  • Agassi the ONE for me...

  • he is so honest...he don't want play tennis but tennis is only thing he have,so sad and beautiful

  • one of the best players in the world.... A LEGEND !!!!

  • this shows that Andre is not only one of the best players ever, he is also a fantastic human being and extremely eluquent. Seen this many times - cry each time!

  • how is it possible to dislike this?? its touching

  • @sbtspice1029

    Maybe they dislike that he retired, lol.

  • @oyeboy94 lol so it's a win-win situation!

  • LOL i thought it was boris becker

  • the world going old... 

  • Is that really egessi ?

  • one word : LEGEND

  • This never gets old...

  • i cry every time i watch this video, one of the most emotional moments in sports history

  • a true honest man! cheers Andre!

  • Becker is like ''Get off the court dude.. it's my win!''

  • @therealdanroxanne ummmm, no he's not.

  • @bustuout it's a joke dude

  • thumbs up when you thought it was Boris Becker :)

  • @epostmitarbeiter thumbs up if you're dumb enough to even think it was boris becker.

  • @pleasecallmedoctor no thumps for you :-(

  • @cof61a 13 people are being dishonest. and it is thumbs.

  • <3 him

  • :,( :,( :,( :,( :,(

  • Yes, I cried. An end of an classic era....

  • Andre the Great

  • I am reading his autobiography, and LOVE it! I am not even a tennis fan, but in his autobiography titled Open....he is making a tennis fan out of me. In the book, he will tell you that he never wanted to be a tennis player...he thought he had a different calling. Well, I believe that his other calling may have been to be an author. This man can write! I am a well read, woman...and this autobiography is writen like poetry. It is THAT beautiful!!

  • Great words from a Great Chanpion on and off the court!!!

  • I am german but i really wished a better player than (benjamin) becker had ended his career, at leat the other german tennis player named becker if u know him ;)

  • @splash2011UPLOAD its a shame really. becker had so much promise, and definitely one to keep your eye on. just never reached his full potential

  • @LaughingKangar00

    Read his biography... If you still don't shed a tear watching this, you might as well lay down and sleep in for good...

  • Andre is a great guy! Genuine, sincere, humble, & one incredible sportsman.

  • @jazzguitar2010, just shut the fuck up . He's one of the greatest to ever play the game, theres no more that needs to be said. Maybe reading his book would work wonders for you, you fuckin low life

  • @jazzguitar2010, just shut the fuck up, he's one of the greatest to ever play the game , maybe reading his book would work wonders for you. You fuckin lowlife sack of shit

  • My past five minutes went like this: Thought about being Agassi for halloween, google video search, watched this, cried, bought an awesome wig to be 80's Agassi for halloween.

  • He was young....

    Why did he retire anyway ?

  • @Seyahhsod 36 is young mmkay

  • thank you Andre! Great man, fantastic tennis player!

  • Back in the day the crowd and public for tennis players played a very important role in giving the player support for his/her heart and Agassi knew this and loved everyone who associated themselves with him from what i see BUT NOWADAYS things are different, people are more synical and the media plays a bigger role, this demotivates players and crowds become unpredictable and less caring so therefore the FAMILY now plays a huge role for a tennis player to succeed.

  • This was a surreal experience for me watching it live.

  • This video makes me sad :( I feel really sorry for agassi when he loses :( and i know he said he hated tennis but i dont think that is true

  • cryed like a baby

  • Men's tennis has been boring ever since Andre retired.

  • @20carrocks blaablaablaa, ur mom is boring, when you fuck her

  • @bustuout Oh my!

  • Serious.. 23 people can f*ck their own mother

  • @jazzguitar2010 Something's wrong with you and stop your jealousy. He cried because he's finally leaving the sport that he loves so much and I'm sure he can feel the love from so many people who gave him that standing ovation. It's indeed an emotional time for him as he's one of the most influential tennis players ever. Can you say that Federer is an ego-maniac as he cried because he lost a TENNIS match to rafa nadal in the final?

  • @jazzguitar2010 you're a retard you know? its obivously very emotional for him as he's been playing tennis for 21 years. He has the right to cry. He isnt pretending to be the centre of the universe. He is a greater person than you will ever be so just shut the fk up.

    Hope you rot in hell

  • @jazzguitar2010 Oh shut up! You mean Federer as in the one who won Wimbledon and had to be a diva and do a wardrobe change? Andre was a professional who wanted to give the fans all he could but his body (his back) would not let him.

    At this moment, he was the center of the universe. 

  • @jazzguitar2010 .....hey asswipe, since you obviously have absolutely no redeeming human characteristics, why don't you just do us all a favor and stick your gigantic head (which is way too big for your tiny mind) back deep into your cavernous ass where it belongs. I'M SERIOUSLY HOPING THAT YOU AREN'T MISSED BY ANYONE WHEN YOU LEAVE THIS MORTAL COIL. FUCKING ASSWIPE.

  • @jazzguitar2010 Are you seriously that shallow? I mean, good god man he loved the sport and they gave him a standing ovation to honour him, do you seriously think he's just going to fuck off without thanking them? Besides, he was pro since the 80s mate, at least 21 years, bottom line, he's showing he cared for the sport and you're shallow enough to say 'Give me a break?' Know what, don't answer, if I haven't proved my point, someone else here has.

  • I hope Sachin Tendulkar retires like this..Grand!!

  • Andre has a much bigger personality and is much more intersting than Federer, a great addition to tennis.

  • @kelman221 That episode with Pete Sampras in that charity match taught me everything I need to know about Andre Agassi's personality

  • @Chazfazzer That Pete has no sense of humour and Andre does? I agree. Although it is pretty hard to pretend to know someone from one little spat. If only it was that easy, I would think everyone I have ever met was a piece of crap in that case.

  • Comment removed

  • Agassi is a legend !!

  • true man cries

  • Legend.

  • Este video me llena de energia

  • sad and glorious moment!

  • Andre you're the best!!!

  • cant imagine this when roger decide to retired~

  • i really stood still when i saw this live!!!!

    i felt very gratefull watching agassi since 98!

  • This video makes any tough asshole being bring down to tears !!!!!!!!

  • actually i don't like "tennis"

    and I have heard that agassi is great player.

    but i don't why i'm crying in every time i seen this video !

    6 minute's the fans not stop Clapping for this man

  • @kaitou797 haha, tennis is an emotionally draining sport, more so than most imo. Why do you put tennis in quotes?

  • this was a great moment to see live

  • I will cry when roger will decide to retire....just the thought makes me sad! ...

  • macchè Sampras! C'è solo Andre Agassi!

  • I dread the day when this happens to Roger Federer.

  • what a speech

  • Tennis have lost something special,this game would never be the same again.

  • @MrLolek2011 ok no need to over dramatize.

  • @sillybeeee to so many people tennis have became a passion thanks to this Man.Some of them have already won Slam or too.This is not over dramatizing its just pure sadnes, thats my opinion and i think maybe few others.Andre introduced some new things to this game,made it more interesting and fun,even that for him self it was not always so.Ok, you now what?I am dramatizing and i dont care.He was He is, and He will always be a legend.Respect.

  • Since André retired I lost interest in tennis. He was the last of a great generation that started with Becker. Not to disrespect the ones before or after. Sampras, Courier, Stich, Ivanisevic, Edberg and many more great players. Baseliners vs volleyers. I miss all that!

  • Although I was a Sampras fan during the height of their career's I've nothing but respect for Andre, he played with passion and these fans obviously recognize the end of something special. The roar of the crowd continually escalates too that was aweome, as choked up as he was I think all tennis fans felt the same sense of sadness and appreciation at this moment.

  • He deserves every clap and cheer off this moment

  • i cried when i saw this video ...

  • If you close your eyes and listen, it sounds like never-ending applause.. hope he never forgets that moment.

  • wow wish i could've been there ;(

  • @AnAmazingForehand l think you mentioned one of his reasons for crying, but you don't seem to know that yourself................

  • @AnAmazingForehand He ended up loving it.

  • I love Steffi with all my heart but why does it always look like she's applauding without any feeling?

    Second thing: 23 dislikes means there are 23 dickheads who understand nothing about tennis.

  • @cimino39 Oh come on, you know the answer! She's german! XD

  • Crying?

  • At 1:40 that black dude probably said to becker, "you know YOU won right?"

  • Andre Agassi !! you are the best tennis player ever !! and for ever to people's heart !! Tkssssssssssssssss

  • go read his book if you haven't already! - i got through all 500 pages in 2½ days - it's SO good!

  • i just finished reading his book, which lets you understand his thoughs, joys and struggles in a whole new way and makes this moment even more special... - made me cry

    well done, andre!

  • Steffi's still gorgeous.

  • I have learned to appreciate Agassi after I read his book, now he's my hero

  • I have never seen anything like this. Tennis has never seen anything like Andre Agassi. He is a tennis hero and the most decent and caring human being too.

  • He retired too soon - guess it was his wife's and family decision- to see his kids grow up

  • @annajeehee Sorry, but I don't agree. Andre went through a lot of physical pain his last few years, that was the primary reason he had to retire. He couldn't do those cortisone injections in the back forever.

  • I read his book and watched this... all I can say is wow! what a champion~in tennis, in life, in everything!!!! Agassi has always been a hero, but now he's more then that.

  • The best spokesman- agassi

  • I remember watching this with my dad before I became a real fan of tennis, and now that I'm watching it again, it still brings up the emotion and moves me even more, to tears. bless you, Andre.

  • i was there, sitting behind the lady in the hat in the first 10 seconds of the video.. it was amazing. i wish i would have known what i was watching though like i know now

  • Andre is my hero. I grew up watching him.

  • AWWWW! SO SWEET! WHOO HOO! INDUCTED INTO THE HALL OF FAME!

  • great match by becker, hes the real winner of this match. not that old cocain guy!!

  • I just finished reading his autobiography "Open", it's hands-down the best sports auto-/biography I've ever read. (As a writer and bookseller, that's saying a lot).

  • he's was a good man ;) but he will be in our heart forever .

  • @WalidBeck hey my father too was forcing me to play tennis and now on the 7th year i am loving it !

  • OMG!!! So sad such a great player retires! very humble! that is y i tink i luv federer too.......i dont know wat i will feel wen roger decides to retire!.....Oh God i dread it.....

  • It's a shame I didn't start following tennis seriously until about 2004. I feel like I really missed out on a lot of legends through their great runs. Yet even when I watched this, I almost cried. For however short it was, he was my favorite player before Federer. I don't even want to begin to imagine what's gonna happen when Fed retires.

  • wow, i havn't shed a tear for a while

  • @SwagbucksRulezzzz , im just sorry you cant feel the levels of emotion that i do, you heartless asshole

  • 21 people got mad when he retired

  • sounds like michael jackson wrote his speech

    

  • ..the great entertainers of tennis ended here!..only tsonga is left

  • @WalidBeck

    Yeah, well the things that he said in his book don't add up. Anderson Cooper did a very good job of exposing the nonsense that Agassi professed. It didn't add up because it was a lot of invented BS so that he could sell books. After all, who wants to hear that Agassi worked hard and succeeded? They want drama! Agassi is smart enough to realize it.

  • If he hates tennis why is he crying? He hates tennis according to his book!!!

  • @bobbycratchit maybe he is honored by the many fans cheering on him, showing him respect and affection, still backing him after all these years, adoring him and supporting him ...

  • Andre agassis inheritor meant to be Davydenko but davydenko had been a great choker pity :S

  • wow this crowd was amazing.

    Agassi is definitely among the tennis legends

  • that's so sweet. I'm reading his autobiography right now. It's nice that people showed the love here.

  • @cyclemom : I just finished  "Open", those 600 pages went in 3 nights. I already loved the player, I discovered the man, and what a man !

  • ..thank you andre!!!

    

  • to bad a legend like agassi was beaten by a person like becker. who is becker...

  • the crowd give me goosebumps, it's amazing

  • he was my favourite and always.
