Synopsis | Net Prophet (2024)
There’s not much Andre Agassi doesn’t know about tennis. He’s one of the finest players to ever swing a racquet: a former number one who won multiple tournaments, including eight grand slam titles. But what the champ has to say about the game is not what many might expect. As he confesses to Tara Brown, for much of his time at the top he loathed the sport. However, these days Andre is proof that there is life after tennis. At 53, happily married to fellow legend Steffi Graf, he is the dad to their two children. And away from the court, he can be found in the classroom, where he’s raising billions to help underprivileged kids get an education.
