1999 French Open – Men's singles

Andre Agassi defeated Andriy Medvedev in the final, 1–6, 2–6, 6–4, 6–3, 6–4 to win the men's singles tennis title at the 1999 French Open.[1][2] It was his first French Open title and fourth major title overall, becoming the second man in the Open Era (after Rod Laver) to complete the career Grand Slam, and the first to do so across three surfaces. He also completed the career Super Slam (having previously won Olympic gold and the year-end championships), the first of two men's singles players to do so (the other being Novak Djokovic).
