Agassi-Graf `face-off'

HOUSTON: Steffi Graf required three stitches after husband Andre Agassi inadvertently hit her in the face with his racquet during a fundraiser that followed the final of the U.S. clay court championship here on Sunday.

Graf and Agassi were holding hands while playing with a couple of youngsters when Agassi's follow-through struck his wife in the face. Agassi was holding his racquet 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 her closely to check whether everything was ok.

She wiped her mouth with a towel before leaving the stadium to have three stitches to her lip, officials said. It was not clear whether the cut was to the inside or outside of her mouth. — AP
