A small section of fans took to Reddit recently, poking fun at the newly crowned ‘power couple’ while comparing them to Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf. The post was captioned, “De Minaur and Boulter this week” with Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf’s famous picture of the Wimbledon Champions’ Dinner 1992 in London, England.
This drew a direct comparison between the two power couples and Reddit users had some comic observations and opinions. One user believes the new power couple is better than the now-retired one, while another wondered if “De Minaur is currently wearing a wig,” referring to Agassi’s wig which went unnoticed for years before he revealed the truth behind his mullet. The picture certainly evoked nostalgia for many.

The comparisons were made in a light-hearted manner as the new ‘power couple’ has only one mixed doubles Grand Slam title between them, and none in singles. On the other hand, Agassi and Graf have 30 total in singles; 8 for Agassi and 22 for Graf. So clearly they have a long way to go before this comparison can be taken seriously.
Nonetheless, Boulter and De Minaur have been making fans swoon over their public display of affection for each other.

She quipped, “So Katie and Demon are the best-ranked tennis couple right now? :P”

Fan speculation ranges from wondering if they were the highest-ranked tennis couple since Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf to anime couple comparisons.
The entertainment quotient that tennis couples bring to the game is off the charts and with time in their hands as they have a long career ahead, Boulter and de Minaur will be serving fans with satirical and quick-witted humor for a long time it seems.
