ATP – WTA, Unusual > Andre Agassi on his wife, Steffi Graf: “She looked at me as if to say: ‘But what’s wrong with you?'”

They passage a I^nde a few days ago to launch the new pickleball league alongside Rohan Bopanna, Andre Agassi, who has become one of the great ambassadors of this sport, explained how this regular practice had allowed him to lose nearly 20 kilos.

“If I play tennis now with my wife or my friends, I expend a lot of energy and I can do it for a while until I am exhausted. And then I come home, I take a shower and I’m ready to do anything, like a business meeting, I do this, I do that. When I play pickleball, I feel the same fatigue, but when I get home, I can’t make a meeting. Because I am also very mentally tired. In tennis, physically, definitely, and you concentrate, but you have these breaks. In pickleball, you don’t understand. I come home and lie down on the couch. At first, when Stef, my wife, wasn’t playing, she looked at me as if to say, ‘You just played pickleball, what’s wrong with you?’ It still helped me lose 18 kilos. »
