The crowd was loving every second of it. But it was Agassi’s reaction that truly captured the magic—he was left in awe. Shaking his head and wondering how on earth Novak never seems to miss.


Moreover, the cherry on top was McEnroe’s classic one-liner. After the rally, he joked that it felt like the Olympics all over again, making a cheeky reference to Djokovic’s recent win over Alcaraz in the Olympic final. Social media exploded with fans loving the banter and appreciating the rare showdown between two of the game’s best backhands.

While the rally was pure gold, the doubles match itself was a blast. Fans packed the stands, buzzing to see Agassi, McEnroe, Djokovic, and Alcaraz share the court. It’s not every day that you get that kind of lineup. The match was filled with awesome rallies, some vintage shots, and plenty of playful trash talk.


In the end, it was Djokovic and McEnroe who bagged the win, taking down Agassi and Alcaraz with a 10-8 victory. The crowd went wild, loving every minute of this mix of nostalgia and top-notch tennis. Agassi might not play on the tour anymore, but he definitely showed he’s still got it.

Seeing Andre Agassi back on the court with these guys was like taking a step back in time, and it reminded everyone why he’s such a tennis legend. On top of it, McEnroe’s hilarious comment just made the whole thing even better. This match wasn’t just a game—it was a celebration of tennis, a rare moment that fans will remember for a long time.

Everyone’s hoping we get more moments like this in the future—because let’s face it, tennis doesn’t get much better than this.
