Open by Andre Agassi
The two Daves dig into one of the most highly touted sports books in recent memory, Open by Andre Agassi. Andre Agassi was a child tennis prodigy who eventually became one of the top players in the world. If you followed sports in the 1990s, you couldn't have missed Agassi's fancy hairdos, neon coloured outfits and elaborate marketing campaigns.
In Open, written a few years after his retirement, Agassi takes us with him as he recounts the story of growing up with a tennis obsessed father, through his life on the professional tennis tour, all the way through to his retirement from the game in 2006.
