The 34-year-old Las Vegan is only the sixth player since men's tennis turned professional in 1968 to achieve the feat.
Agassi had been stuck on 799 wins since March and had lost his previous four matches, as well as missing Wimbledon due to a hip problem.
The top-seeded American, who has won eight grand slam titles and 58 singles titles in total, faces France's Julien Benneteau in the second round as he continues his preparations for the next grand slam, the US Open which starts on August 30.
