The lifelong Las Vegan, who will turn 42 on April 29, won eight Grand Slam singles titles and an Olympic gold medal, and he played on two Davis Cup championship teams for the United States. He is one of seven men to win a career Grand Slam, joining Oakland native Don Budge (No. 11 on the list), Fred Perry, Rod Laver, Roy Emerson, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal.
Agassi played part-time for the Capitals from 2002, when they won their fifth of a record six WTT titles, to 2004. Also on the list are ex-Capitals Lindsay Davenport (No. 43) and Michael Chang (No. 100).
Tennis Channel will air a one-hour program counting down No. 10 to No. 1 today at 4 p.m. PDT, 5 p.m. and 10 p.m. The order remains to be seen, but the top 10 apparently are:
Men -- Rod Laver, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Pete Sampras and Bjorn Borg.
Women -- Steffi Graf, Martina Navratilova, Chris Evert, Margaret Court and Billie Jean King.
The network also will recap Nos. 100 through 11 today from noon to 4 p.m.
