El Enlace de Ensueño - La Boda de Andre Agassi y Steffi Graf

New Dominance, Injuries, and Final Tour Years

After dealing with a series of injuries and losses in the intervening years, Graf came back on top in 1993, winning three of four Grand Slam events in addition to the Virginia Slims championships. She won her first French Open since 1988, and conquered Wimbledon by defeating Jana Novotná. The next year, she won the Australian Open and an assortment of tournaments across the globe. However, while competing (and winning) in San Diego, Graf aggravated a long-time back injury, and developed a bone spur at the base of her spine due to a congenital condition. From 1994 to 1996, various ailments and surgeries disrupted her career, causing her to withdraw twice from the Australian Open. Despite the setbacks, Graf still managed to win a number of titles, including Wimbledon in 1995. The final of that championship is widely recognized as one of the most exciting in women's major finals history, with a dramatic third set that involved a 16-minute long, 13-deuce game.

Graf's final tour years from 1997 to 1999 were plagued with further injuries to her knees and back, causing her to lose her world number one ranking and, for the first time in a decade, the Grand Slam title. After racking up a handful of high-profile wins, Graf finally announced her retirement from the women's tour in 1999, attributing the decision to a loss of motivation.

Agassi has said the universe screamed that Graf was the one

He claimed that when he was in the process of divorcing Shields, the Pretty Baby actress put a picture of Graf’s legs in a heart-shaped magnet on the fridge because those were the legs she was striving for. Agassi noted, “That’s the universe screaming,” adding, “It’s a bullhorn.”

What is Steffi Graf's Net Worth?

Steffi Graf is a German former World No. 1 tennis player who has a net worth of $145 million. That is a combined net worth with her husband of 20+ years, fellow retired professional tennis player Andre Agassi.

During her career she won 22 Grand Slam singles titles, the third most in history, and was ranked world number one for a record 377 total weeks by the Women's Tennis Association. By comparison, Serena Williams is #2 on the list, with 319 total weeks. Graf is the only tennis player to have won each Grand Slam tournament at least four times; overall, she racked up 107 singles titles during her career.

Agassi introduced his wife at her Tennis Hall of Fame induction ceremony

Graf was overcome with emotion after Agassi introduced her at her International Tennis Hall of Fame induction ceremony in 2004. "As I attempt to find words worthy to introduce the person that has changed my life, I realize the words have yet to be invented that are large enough, colorful enough, or true enough to express the heart and soul of this woman that I love," Agassi said in his speech.

They were formally introduced after winning Wimbledon the same year

Agassi had the chance to meet Graf after winning his first Grand Slam title at Wimbledon in 1992. She won the ladies' singles tennis title at the tournament the same year. Agassi was “dying to go” to the Wimbledon Ball that he’d heard about for years because the men’s winner got to dance with the women’s winner. He even purchased a tuxedo from Harrods for the event, but was informed that the dance had been canceled.
