7 attributes that could create the ultimate tennis player

2 .Return (Andre Agassi)

Andre Agassi

If Sampras had the best serve, Andre Agassi, his arch-rival, had the best return of serve. Like Sampras's serve, Agassi's return also did not consist of any extravagant action. It did not involve a high swing of racquet.

Also, Agassi did not have to move too much to make those returns. With minimum effort and apparent ease, he consistently nullified the best of serves. The 1995 Australian Open final could be taken as an example when Agassi mastered the great Pete Sampras with his awesome returns.

It seemed that Agassi could send his service return to any part of the court as per his desire. Needless to say, he hit loads of return winners throughout his career.
