Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf, He raves so touchingly about their marriage

Tennis stars Steffi Graf and Andre Agassi have been married since 2001 and are still as much in love as they were on the first day.

Former tennis pro Andre Agassi (53) won four times at the Australian Open. Now he himself has returned to the tournament in Melbourne as a rare guest. Although he is enjoying the old times there, he can hardly wait to fly back to Las Vegas to embrace his wife and tennis player Steffi Graf (54). The 53-year-old revealed to "Eurosport" what their private life is like after more than 20 years of marriage and two children together.

When it comes to tennis, things have pretty much played out for Agassi, as he reveals in an interview. The former pro published a video on the tennis court on Instagram after a whole year "off". He has since switched to pickleball, a ball sport that combines badminton, tennis and table tennis. Andre's wife Steffi has also already been infected with his new passion and can hardly compete with her: "She's just got it. Just like always. She beats me at everything."

For Steffi Graf, tennis is still a passion that she enjoys pursuing. The tennis couple complement each other perfectly. "It's perfect," Andre enthuses about playing with Steffi Graf. "I like hitting balls and she likes running. She turns it into a training session and I just hit a few balls."

But what does a day like this look like for Agassi and Graf in Las Vegas? Thanks to Steffi, the couple always get up at the same time, which Andre affectionately calls "German thoroughness". "Steffi doesn't need an alarm clock - she's the alarm clock," jokes the 53-year-old. They get up between 5:30 and 6:00 am. While Andre tends to be a morning grouch, the gold medal winner has plenty of energy early in the morning. Despite their different moods, the couple love to start the day together and spend "time together".
