Andre Agassi recently shared his tennis expertise with compatriot Justin Gimelstob's son, Brandon, during a practice session.

Agassi is considered one of the greatest players of all time. Throughout his career, he achieved remarkable success, winning eight Grand Slams, four of which came at the Australian Open. He also won an Olympic gold medal and held the World No. 1 ranking.

Agassi was the first male player to win all four singles Majors on three different surfaces. He also won 17 Masters titles throughout his career. He transitioned into coaching after hanging up his racket in 2006, working with top players such as Novak Djokovic and Grigor Dimitrov.

The former World No. 1 has also competed at both the editions of the Pickleball Slam, coming out on top in each. He won the first edition alongside Andy Roddick and won the second with his wife and a tennis legend herself, Steffi Graf, as his partner.

Recently, Andre Agassi took to social media to share a heartwarming photo of himself imparting tennis wisdom to his compatriot Justin Gimelstob's son Brandon.

"A privilege to share perspective," Agassi captioned his Instagram post.

Gimelstob, who has been allegedly working with Agassi in a managerial capacity, expressed gratitude for the opportunity his son had.

"Very lucky boy @brandongimelstob," Gimelstob commented.
@justingimelstob all love," Agassi replied.

Andre Agassi and Justin Gimelstob have faced each other four times on the ATP Tour, with the former emerging victorious in three.

Gimelstob turned professional in 1996, and his first encounter with Agassi on the ATP tour took place in 1997 at an ATP event in Los Angeles. He managed to defeat the then World No. 32 with a score of 7-5, 6-2.

The next meeting between the two players was in the semifinals of the same event in Los Angeles, where Agassi took his revenge, winning 6-0, 7-6(2).

At the 1999 US Open, Agassi defeated Gimelstob 6-1, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 in the third round and then went on to win the Slam by defeating compatriot Todd Martin in the final. This was his second New York Major title and fifth Grand Slam overall.

Their final meeting was at the 2002 US Open, where Gimelstob entered as a wild card. The eventual runner-up Agassi dominated the match, defeating his opponent 6-0, 6-1, 6-1 in the second round.
