To which he answered, “I am still shrewd. I don’t bring 1 trophy home. Because if I did, she would. If you spend 2 minutes with her, you will forget everything she has ever accomplished. I respect her for it, I admire her for it, and I am inspired by it. But hey for the record, if she ever leaves me, I get half of her grand slams.

During the same podcast episode, Andre Agassi mentioned how if he and his wife separated, he would get half of her grand slam. And if that happened it would mean he gets to have 29 grand slams which would put him above Novak Djokovic who has 24 grand slams as of now.

“Hey, let’s be on the record, if she [Steffi Graf] ever leaves me, I get half her Slams, right? Puts me at about 29 then, Novak Djokovic has a long way to go still,” Agassi said.

However, even if Andre Agassi’s eight Grand Slam titles were combined with Steffi Graf’s 11, he would still have fewer Slams than Novak Djokovic, who currently holds more than 24 titles.
