It's been quite a comeback for Andre Agassi in recent months. Professionally speaking, the 29-year-old Las Vegas native captured three Grand Slam tournaments to again become one of the top-ranked players in the world. In his personal life, Agassi has a new love in tennis:

　　I never had a relationship with tennis like I do now. This was always something that I had to succeed at for other reasons, whether it was. I was young getting out of the academy I was in and just making it on my own, and then it was either the pressure of what I felt I had to live up to or some kind of ability or something.

　　It was never really something I embraced. It just happened to be something that I was good at, and I think that at this stage in my life I have an appreciation and a real love relationship with the game of tennis.
