Jamaica legend, Usain Bolt flashes his signature pose – a lightening bolt

It was the Summer of Revenge for Andre Agassi in 1995. With the backing of Nike with his clothing line,  he was the No. 1 player in the world and at the physical peak of his career.

The 25-year-old Agassi was a fearsome ball striker who had finally found the right blend of patience and percentages with coach Brad Gilbert’s baseline philosophy. He had combined his talent with hard work and intelligence, work ethic and purpose, and he had his sights set on ruling all of tennis for a long time.

He had won the 1994 U.S. Open and defeated rival and tennis king Pete Sampras in the 1995 Australian Open final. By the time he crossed the Atlantic in mid-April, he had captured the No. 1 ranking.
