I'd like to see it but I can't. I think the Aus Open will be the only glitch in the Federer juggernaut this year and even if there was another one, there are too many players - Roddick, Safin, Hewitt, in the way
Big call to say Fed will win the French.

Agassi's best and last chance to win a grand slam is his home slam.US open this year..but he wont win it because federer, safin and even roddick are just fitter and stronger than him now.Maybe if the draw opens up he stands a chance.
About federer winning the RG..i certainly think he can..he has beaten the likes of coria, JCF,Gaudio, gonzalez in masters series events last year on clay..so its just a matter of confidence and belief.Guga was just too hot for him last year..credit has to go to Guga for slamming 49 winners in 3 sets past federer.

No.
But i think he has a good chance of winning the Davis Cup this year USa are looking pretty strong as long as he commits fully to it.
I heard that he wants to play this year.

It's defeats like this that make it ever-increasingly hard to see Agassi winning another grand slam. Not only does he have to worry about the Federers, Safins and Roddicks of the world, he has to worry about dangerous lurkers in the draw like Melzer who can knock him off.

You should never write off a champion but the odds of him winning another slam are unlikely. He'd need a very favourable draw and quite a bit of luck to do it. I'd say USO 2005 and AO 2006 would be his last opportunities.

I hope he does win another slam, he has been an ornament to the game and has hung around to mixed it up with the younger, hungrier generation, often beating them. A true legend of the sport.

Spewing Steffi didn't have the balls to honor her bet and play the French with Andre. They might have been a chance.

You forgot the "Who cares" option. Probably cos im just tired of him blowing kisses to the crowd when he beats some 17 year old qualifyer from Uzbekistan in a crap tournament.
