Andre Agassi

Andre Kirk Agassi, born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada is one of the most accomplished tennis players in history. He was ranked as the world #1 in men's singles by the ATP for 101 weeks, including as the year-end No. 1 in 1999. Agassi won 60 ATP Tour-level singles titles, including eight majors, completing the career Grand Slam after winning Roland Garros in 1999 in a dramatic five set comeback victory against Andrei Medvedev. Agassi also won an Olympic gold medal, the 1990 ATP Tour World Championships, 17 Masters titles and was part of the winning United States Davis Cup teams in 1990, 1992 and 1995. Agassi is one of five men in the Open Era to achieve the career Grand Slam in singles, and one of three men to complete the career Golden Slam in singles. Agassi was inducted into the Tennis Hall of Fame in 2011.

Agassi was the first man to win all four singles majors on three different surfaces (hard, clay and grass), and remains the most recent American man to win the French Open (in 1999) and the Australian Open (in 2003). Outside of tennis, he is the founder of the Andre Agassi Charitable Foundation, which has raised over $120 million for at-risk children in Southern Nevada. In 2001, the Foundation opened the Andre Agassi College Preparatory Academy in Las Vegas, a K–12 public charter school for at-risk children. He has been married to fellow tennis player Steffi Graf since 2000. They have two children, son Jaden and daughter Jaz.

Agassi has recently been named as a LAVER Cup captain for Team World. They will be competing this September in San Francisco. Agassi and Graf have also launched their own pickleball paddle line partnering with industry leader JOOLA.
