Andre Agassi's Strategy Against Boris Becker
Andre Agassi and Boris Becker had a fierce rivalry in tennis during the 1990s. Initially, Becker dominated with three straight wins, especially due to his powerful serve that Agassi struggled to return. Agassi committed to not losing the next match. He extensively studied Becker's matches and noticed that Becker's serve had a telling sign - sticking his tongue out indicated the direction of his serve. Agassi used this insight to read Becker's serve and eventually won, maintaining the challenge of concealing his advantage from Becker.
