Agassi tearfully blows his trademark kisses to the crowd

Agassi ends his career with a loss to 112th-ranked Benjamin Becker in the third round of the U.S. Open. Those who doesn't really dig tennis nor know Andre Agassi struggles to get this far to the U.S. Open would just shrug it off and say that an aging 36 year-old man is surely to loose in a match with a man in his mid twenties. But never say that to fans of Andre as we are all in high hopes of him winning his final tournament. With him winning his first two matches, you just couldn't hope for more. Still, for him and also for his fans, it is not all about winning as he already won the hearts of many. No one in the tennis world has such a charisma. You just couldn't be prouder of a man who is willing to give it his best to a sport that he loves, even with a bad back and needing 4 shots in a week to stay competitive. He didn't want to get beaten limping in court nor be remembered as a quitter. And he succeeded.

Yup, he was crying as he blew his kisses to his fans and his fans giving him a 4 minute standing ovation.To Andre, good luck and hoping for your continuous success in life!
