Click here to send a question. Andre Agassi is the winner of this week's annual Player of the Week award. The A-Train won his fourth title of the year at Houston. Along the way he took over the No. 1 ranking and became the oldest player ever to hold the top spot. Bravo. ... In the final, Agassi was trailing 3-6, 0-2, 0-40 to Andy Roddick. Agassi hit a backhand dropshot winner to stay in the game. He held serve, broke Roddick a few games later and rolled from there. ... Two observations about Agassi's tremendous feat of reaching the rankings pinnacle: 1) We're not saying the Champions Race needs to be abolished, but this is yet another example of why the 52-week ranking still has resonance. 2) Anyone else get the feeling that, with his anemic playing schedule, Lleyton Hewitt is cutting off his nose to spite his face? When he finishes the year at No. 2 or 3 because he's hellbent on entering as few ATP events as possible, boy, he really will have shown them. (More on Hewitt below.) ... In the Houston doubles final, the world's top team of Mark Knowles and Daniel Nestor beat Jan- Michael Gambill and former Illinois standout Graydon Oliver 6-4, 6-3. ...

  • Tennis DIVISION I MEN’S
    Tennis DIVISION I MEN’S Highlights Southern California wins third national title in a row; Nguyen clinches championship with thrilling three-set victory: Daniel Nguyen made a shot to earn a break point, fl ipped off his hat, started taking off his shirt and then danced around the court until his Southern California teammates could reach him and pile on. Nguyen downed Sanam Singh, 7-5, 0-6, 6-4, to give Southern California a 4-3 victory against Virginia for the Trojans’ third consecutive NCAA men’s tennis title May 24. They became the fi rst three-time defending champions since Stanford won four in a row from 1995 to 1998. “I remember watching Prakash Amritraj take off his shirt when we won the 2002 title,” Nguyen said. “I thought about doing it and then thought, ‘nah, let’s not do it.’” Seconds later he was tackled to the ground amid a wave of Trojans. “It was an incredible match,” Southern California coach Peter Smith said. “It all came down to the last match. How many teams win three in a row? These boys did it. This coaching staff did it.” Nguyen’s fi nal game featured a solid return game. He dived to save one shot and ended up getting the point. That led to the chip shot from the net that landed a few yards from Singh. “It was an amazing atmosphere,” Nguyen said. “It was unbelievably loud and it was hard to focus. I just seized the moment and took advantage.” Of his second point in the last game, he said: “I just saw the ball and ran as fast as I could and dove for it.
