Publisher Description

#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Far more than a superb memoir about the highest levels of professional tennis, Open is the engrossing story of a remarkable life. "Agassi’s memoir is just as entrancing as his tennis game.” —Time
 
“Honest in a way that such books seldom are.” —The New York Times

 
Andre Agassi had his life mapped out for him before he left the crib. Groomed to be a tennis champion by his moody and demanding father, by the age of twenty-two Agassi had won the first of his eight grand slams and achieved wealth, celebrity, and the game’s highest honors. But as he reveals in this searching autobiography, off the court he was often unhappy and confused, unfulfilled by his great achievements in a sport he had come to resent.

Agassi writes candidly about his early success and his uncomfortable relationship with fame, his marriage to Brooke Shields, his growing interest in philanthropy, and—described in haunting, point-by-point detail—the highs and lows of his celebrated career.

Outstanding read

I played some tennis growing up so I am coming at this partly from that perspective. It is very tennis detailed, but he also shares about family, friends and his school. I highly recommend it!

As good as Andre Agassi

I follow and admire Andre Agassi since I first saw him playing, winning or loosing but never giving up. This amazing book has given me all the details to the questions I always had.

Très bonne biographie

Très bonne biographie, pour ceux qui aime le tennis et André Agassi. Il décrit des joueurs en dehors des terrains de tennis.
