依照慣例記者非得提到一下pete不可....

Q. What was going through your mind as you acknowledged the crowd before you walked off?

ANDRE AGASSI: Oh, you know, just saying thank you to them. They've been great to me over the years. Just a lot of fun to compete in front of. And you never know when it's your last, right? So you want to say bye properly.

Q. Does the level of tennis remind you of one of your best matches against Pete?

ANDRE AGASSI: Well, there's a lot of matches that feel that way. A lot -- you play a lot of matches through the year where it's decided by one or two points, you know. Again, it was a high-standard match.

But you're asking me to compare one match to a guy I grew up with and competed for championships for many years. Can't do that.

Q. What are our chances of seeing you here again next year?

ANDRE AGASSI: Well, right now, pretty good. I mean, I have no plans to do otherwise. But, you know, a year's a long time. I really look forward to being back.


記得在95 96 年, pete 和andre兩個人競爭最激烈的時候,
山普拉斯幫和阿格西幫幾乎是壁壘分明的,
當時兩人每每在決賽碰頭又互有勝負,
導致我和支持阿格西的朋友每個隔週就要互相嗆聲.

逝去的美好年代.

這幾年我開始支持andre, 一方面是他重返巔峰之後心理的成長取代了年輕的狂妄,
另一方面眼看pete體能下滑的同時, andre居然老當益壯, 更是令人敬佩.
然而年輕的勢力與身體的極限仍不斷推擠著他, pete 02 年被問了一整年的問題,
現在也漸漸要落到andre身上了, 我想andre迷們也開始慢慢能體會當時我們的感覺,
心裡反覆的那些"以前一定跑得到"的感嘆, 在放手與不捨之間的矛盾掙扎.

Enjoy the game, Andre, for you, and for Pete.
