Agassi on top, but is he a tennis great?
Andre Agassi is the new US Open champion, and world number 1. Agassi won against veteran Todd Martin in a 5 set thriller, coming back from 2 sets to 1 down. The win has arguably confirmed him as the best player of 1999, with wins at the French and US Open's, as well as a finalist spot at Wimbledon. Agassi has now won 5 grand slams, and looks set to win more. But former world number 1 Jimmy Connors has questioned the notion that Agassi be considered one of the game's greats.

Agassi makes history
Andre Agassi has come from nowhere to post a remarkable win at the French Open. This win has given him a career grand-slam; meaning that he has won once at each of the four grand-slams. To put this in perspective, the last player to achieve a career grand slam was Australian legend Rod Laver. The last American to do this was Don Budge in the 1930's.

Hewitt stalls Agassi comeback
Lleyton Hewitt pipped Andre Agassi at the post in an absorbing final at San Jose, winning 4-6, 7-6 (6), 7-6 (4). Both players were making comebacks, Hewitt from chicken pox which had drained him at the Australian Open and Agassi from a wrist injury. Hewitt continued his good form against Agassi, who he beat as a 16 year old in 1998 to win his first title in Adelaide.

Agassi 31, still going strong
Andre Agassi has continued his magnificent form this year, winning the Ericsson Open in Florida with a crushing 7-6, 6-1, 6-0 victory of Jan-Michael Gambill. This, along with victory at the Indian Wells tournament over Pete Sampras and the Australian Open in January means Agassi has won the 3 biggest tournaments of the year so far. With Sampras waning, could 2001 again be Agassi's year?

Agassi completes comeback
Andre Agassi has proven himself to be a worthy world number 1, claiming his second Australian Open title. He had a gritty run through the tournament, including an inspirational win over a red hot Pete Sampras in the semi-finals. In the final he faced a surprisingly tough match against the defending champion Yevgeny Kafelnikov, who in the past has not been known for his fighting qualities. Agassi's win takes his tally of grand slams up to 6, equal with that of former great Stefan Edberg.

Injuries Hit the US Open as Agassi Heads the Field
This year's US Open has so far been more notable for who hasn't been in it than who has. The first round brought the shock news of Pete Sampras' withdrawal from the event before a ball had been hit. Pat Rafter's attempt to win a history-making three-peat at the US Open ended in frustration with a default with injury. The main story for the US Open now is who will win out of hot favourite Andre Agassi, and this year's Australian Open champion Yevgeny Kafelnikov. Both have been ranked number 1 this year, and both will be keen to add to their tally of having won 1 grand slam in 1999.

Sampras in top form for US Open
Pete Sampras has been able to turn around what had been a mediocre year for him, and is currently in top form. He has just won Queens, Wimbledon and now the Los Angeles tournaments in succession. At the time of writing Sampras is on an 18 match winning streak in singles, which is the 4th best streak of his career. With Pat Rafter faultering in his title defence of Toronto, and with a winning record against Agassi; Sampras now looks to be the favourite for reclaiming his former US Open title.

A champion returns to form
Gustavo Kuerten rose from almost complete obsurity in 1997 to win the French Open title. Since then he has had fair results, but nothing to prove that his grand slam win was more than an aberration. However by winning his first Super-Nine title at the Monte Carlo open, Kuerten has established early favouritism to win again at Paris; and prove himself in the eyes of tennis fans and of his peers.

Rafter clinches no. 1
After spending much of the past 18 months as the world number 2, Pat Rafter has finally clinched the world number 1 spot in men's tennis. He has become the 18th player to rank number 1 since the inception of world rankings in 1973. The last Australian to rank so highly was John Newcombe a quarter of a century ago. It is a fitting reward for Rafter, currently the 2-time US Open champion. The question now is whether or not he has the mental toughness to retain this lofty position.

Rafter in Doubt for US Open
Pat Rafter is now in doubt for the US Open after aggravating a shoulder injury during the recent Indianapolis event. His absence would be a great shame for the sport, as it would end his chances of winning the US Open for an extraordinary 3 consecutive years. It would also remove Rafter from the equation in what has become an intriguing battle for the top spot and hard-court supremacy between himself, Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi and Yevgeny Kafelnikov.

Ranking system problems
Yevgeney Kafelnikov recently achieved the world number 1 ranking, despite being on a 6 match losing streak. He was able to do this because of the nature of the current ATP rankings system, which required Pete Sampras to defend a certain amount of points he had gained in 1998. This situation, along with Marcelo Rios' rise to the top ranking without a grand slam title to his name; has shown up the current rankings system as being badly inadequate.

Sampras ties Emerson
Pete Sampras has claimed his 6th Wimbledon title, and in doing so tied former great Roy Emerson for the most number of grand slams ever won. Sampras beat Andre Agassi in an exciting final, though in straight sets. Sampras now holds 12 grand slam titles, and has an excellent chance to surpass Emerson's record over the next 3 or so years.

Tough economic times affect the ATP too
The horrendous terrorist attacks of September 11 have sparked off what could be a world economic recession. Investors are reluctant to spend money in such turbulent and unstable times. The ATP Tour is not immune to the economic situation, and has announced a budget cut of $7 million (US) for 2002. As a part of this 15 staff members have also been laid off in order to cut costs. The ATP is now searching for another major sponsor for its masters tournaments for 2002.

Kafelnikov's talent wasted
Yevgeny Kafelnikov's seemingly joking remark that he would retire if Russia won the Davis Cup at the year end does not ring untrue. The 28 year old Russian has won the 1996 French Open, 1999 Australian Open and the Olympics in 2000, yet has failed to even begin to get the results his undeniable talent warrants. Rather than flirting with the idea of retirement, Kafelnikov would be better off following the lead of Andre Agassi, and rededicating himself to the game to ensure he comes close to reaching his potential.

Back to reality after the Olympics
For two weeks we had non-stop, high energy, crowd pleasing sport on television. Much to the disagreement of some purists, tennis was one of those sports we followed during the Olympic games. While the event is opened to professionals, many of the top players declined to participate, but that did not stop #3 Venus Williams or #5 Monica Seles from winning medals for the US team. Now that the Olympics are over, the players will prepare for the indoor season and attempt to gain the last places in the season-ending Chase Championships. It is non-stop tennis action throughout all parts of the globe.

Final well fought, but eventually won by Davenport
Lindsay Davenport won her third Grand Slam singles title at the Australian Open last week. She did not drop a single set in her title run (as with her two other Grand Slam victories), which included a straight set demolition of Martina Hingis in the final. It may have looked easy for Davenport, but Hingis put up a brave fight at the very end, fighting back from 5-1 down to 5-5 in the second set before relinquishing the crown she has won for three straight years.
