We’re professional babysitters; The best job in the world” – When Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf shared how kids Jaden & Jaz ‘kept them on their toes’

Both Agassi and Graf achieved extraordinary success in their illustrious careers, winning a combined total of 30 Grand Slam titles. However, they have both maintained that clinching the Olympic singles gold has been their proudest accomplishment.

Steffi Graf triumphed at the 1988 Seoul Olympics, becoming the only player in history to complete the calendar year Golden Slam by winning all four Majors and the gold medal in the same season. The German later revealed that her Olympic gold was “more special” than winning a Grand Slam.

Andre Agassi, who emerged victorious at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, has expressed a similar sentiment, asserting that winning a gold medal at the prestigious event was the “biggest” achievement in the sporting world.

In a 2012 interview with CNN, Agassi disclosed how he and Graf had observed the significance of their Olympic wins when visiting their children Jaden and Jaz’s school on ‘Professions Day.’ The eight-time Grand Slam champion recounted that the students snubbed their other trophies and instead gravitated to their gold medals.
