The World of Little Little Bird

This US open is all about one name: Andre Agassi. The tennis legend retired today after his loss in the third round, which caps his 21st appearances on US open. I remembered the big names when I started watching tennis, Jim Courier, Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi, Michael Chang... Among them, Pete is my favorite. Pete was too excellent that made Andre kinda slip outside my radar. Not until yesterday, did I realize Andre's greatness. It was raining on Saturday, so CBS played a lot of Andre's classic games, from the four tie break semifinal with Pete in 2001, to 5 set game with Blake in 2005. He is not tall, he is not strong, he is not quick. But he works hard, he plays smart, and he has a great heart. That is why he is still playing this year. Anyway, it is all over. He retired with respect, with all the fans' heart with him. Hats off to Andre.
