championship trophies. Who do they belong to?
Before they became a couple, Steffi Graf and Andre Agassi were pretty decent tennis players. Between them, they won Wimbleon nine times. OK, Graf won eight and Agassi one, but they’re both career Golden Slam winners (all four tennis Grand Slam events and an Olympic Gold Medal). Graf actually won all five in 1988 making her the only tennis player to have accomplished that feat.
The duo combined to win 30 Grand Slam singles championships (Graf 22 and Agassi 8) and began dating shortly after Graf won her final, the 1999 French Open. They wed October 22, 2001, with only their mothers attending as witnesses. Together have two two adult children.
The photo from which this week’s Fan Teaser was created occurred when the pair were playing an exhibition mixed doubles match on May 17, 2009, as a way to christen the renovations to Wimbledon’s Centre Court which then debuted its retractable roof.
Just to review, The Fan Teaser comes courtesy of longtime buddy, Pat Schutte. The cropped photo below and the accompanying clue give you an idea as to who or what the image is of. We invite you to use the Comment option to take a crack at solving the Teaser and, if you’re so inclined, participate in some good-spirited banter with your fellow sports fans. The Fan Teaser will appear each Friday morning with the reveal coming to you Sunday.
