Default Agassi Falls!!

http://sports.yahoo.com/ten/news;_yl...v=ap&type=lgns
The turning point in Agassi's career came almost unexpectedly in 1992, when after a string of losses to a handful of contemporaries in the finals of majors, he outlasted Goran Ivanisevic to win Wimbledon. It was the first time the "image-is-everything" brat in the photo shoots quit "going for it" on every shot, and figured out what real champions eventually understand: that winning is a test of nerves and not just power, a marathon instead of a sprint.

These words should be engraved in front of Bangaladesh cricket teams locker room.

The battle for the US open is heating up.
Federer, Nadal, Roddick, Blake, Hewitt all are gearing up for each other. Murray and Safin are there to cause upsets.
