Agassi Enjoying Retirement

Andre Agassi says he's having no trouble at all making the transition to retired tennis pro.

From Eurosport: Agassi happy in retirement

"I understand myself a little better every day," he told the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung. "While you're playing tennis, it's easy only to see yourself in this light. But now I have the chance to undertake a lot of new things. Starting with my family, but also with the foundation for underprivileged children and my business activities.

"I strongly believe that in 20 years' time, people will struggle to remember that I used to play tennis. I am hoping to have a positive influence on humanity in different ways in the future."

Andre, I don't think anyone is going to forget that you played tennis!! Andre rocks!!

Agassi has a million things on his plate and he'll most likely play exos/charity tournaments for the rest of his career or maybe even play an event or two on the senior tour. Steffi is happy in retirement and I think Andre will be as well.

I'm sure Steffi is happy Andre has retired. She retired but then remain in the scene and travel all over the world following him instead of just relaxing and enjoying life.

Now Mom and Dad will be at home with Jaden and Jaz and they'll be a big happy family.

Hopefully down the road we see Agassi doing what Pete is doing with Team Tennis and exhibitions. We could get Andre, Pete, Courier, Chang and Todd Martin back together again for fun

I would hope that Andre, as a tennis player, will never be forgotten because he became a role model for the youth of tennis with his courage, play and court demeanor.
