Yes, he and dear wife, Steffi. Did a big charity event that generated I don't know how much $ for each's charities / tennis clinics.
That was more an offshoot of the French Open a few weeks back, though, if I recall. Same thing she is describing, though, as the two events are always pretty back-to-back. Pre-US = Post = R.G. Same thing.
I love Agassi. I was in Vegas when they closed that sports bar next to the MGM where they had a lot of his stuff (shirts, etc...what what the name of that place Freeze?).
My aunt had me go in and grab ANYTHING as they pretty much closed when I was there in 2000 on New Year's Eve (looking for that bomber!). I think I have some matches upstairs. VERY last night. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Bev from Sunday, September 06, 2009 5:12:34 PM)

LOL She did take the time to gush about the philanthropic interest of Agassi and the rest. I guess there was a pre-Open celebration of some sort?

HAAAA!!!! I MUST meet your Mum some day, Auntie B. Woman after my own heart. Only such a person would understand my heartbreak at having to travel to Québec when the damn Federer / Roddick final was on in R.G. Greatest match in history and I miss it as I was literally in the air going to a layover in Chicago. Saw the speech was all in an airport sportsbar.
Becks! Tennis fan! Yea! Flooding out of the woodwork like venemous spiders! Hurrah! Yup. All the seeds seem to have big Xs on their backs.
