He had a stiff back and could barely serve, but he won 20 out of 22 pts. at one stretch of the game, just didn't capitalize on the break points. So at the end, his real opponent was father time,

No way! Andre, how could you.
He's cool!
I got a few of his tennis balls from Wimbledon 2001 and he signed em up and chatted to us, tops

He cried after he got an 8 minute ovation. Wow. Great speech.
"Also has citizenship status in Iran."
It's amazing the Jews let him play in the US at all.

Most likely it means he doesn't actually hold an Iranian passport, but could get one just by showing up and asking nicely.
