"You have never defined yourself by what you have achieved; rather, you have achieved by how you defined yourself," Andre said, highlighting Steffi’s humble nature and commitment to her personal life, especially her role as a mother.

Andre continued, "And even now, it has taken my breath away to see how you’ve quietly laid down your racket to pursue love and motherhood, with the same zeal and high standards you have always demanded of yourself. No one has ever known you to be infatuated by your own accomplishments."

The admiration the Agassi children hold for both their parents was evident when Jaz posted an adorable birthday wish for Andre just a few weeks prior. 

She shared a throwback photo of her learning to skateboard with her dad, captioning it with "Love you more than life itself," a testament to the close bond they share.

This Mother’s Day was another opportunity for the family to showcase their bond, and they did so beautifully, reminding everyone why Andre and Steffi are one of tennis’s most beloved couples.

As Andre once said, summing up his feelings for his wife during her Hall of Fame introduction, “We have been touched deeply by your life, you have made us better, and we will never be the same. Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce to you the greatest person I’ve ever known.”
