Agassi après sa défaite face à l’Allemand Benjamin Becker:

Thanks. The scoreboard said I lost today, but what the scoreboard doesn’t say is what it is I have found.
Over the last 21 years, I have found loyalty. You have pulled for me on the court and also in life. I have found inspiration. You have willed me to succeed, sometimes even in my lowest moments. And I have found generosity. You have given me your shoulders to stand on to reach for my dreams — dreams I could have never reached without you.
Over the last 21 years, I have found you. And I will take you and the memory of you with me for the rest of my life. Thank you.
