NJTank Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Agassi serves up a shot to Graf?s faceHOUSTON - Steffi Graf required three stitches yesterday after husband Andre Agassi inadvertently hit her in the face with his racket during a fundraiser that followed the final of the U.S. Clay Court Championships. Graf and Agassi were holding hands - her left to his right - while rallying with a couple of youngsters when Agassi?s follow-through struck his wife in the face. Agassi held his racket in his left hand. After she was hit, Graf lifted her left hand to her mouth and walked off to the side of the court with Agassi following closely behind her to check on her well-being. She wiped her mouth with a towel before leaving the stadium for an on-site doctor to administer three stitches to her lip, officials said. It was not clear whether the cut was to the inside or outside of her mouth area. She suffered no damage to her teeth, officials said. ?She?s OK,? Agassi said. ?It was an unfortunate accident.? Agassi and Graf were in Houston because Agassi is part of a reality show called ?The Big Give,? a new Oprah Winfrey show. The doctor who paid $70,000 at a fundraiser for a trip to play tennis with the couple stitched up Graf. Agassi retired last year at the U.S. Open, while Graf retired in 1999 with 22 Grand Slam titles. The couple has two children .http://sports.bostonherald.com/tennis/view...rticleid=195024 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
