Andre Agassi's Autobiography
Posted 2/8/2010 @ 1:14:10 pm by SeniorsNutritionAndHealth/Susan |
In Andre Agassi’s new book “Open: An Autobiography,” published in November 2009, we hear the story of this former No. 1 world-ranked tennis player finally coming clean with his admission of methamphetamine (crystal meth) use in 1997. However, is this the unsolicited tale of one of the sport’s most successful yet philanthropic participant or is it simply a retirement cry from someone still craving to remain affixed before the public eye? The book, as told to collaborator J. R. Moehringer, describes how after failing a subsequent drug test, Agassi penned a letter in his defense to the ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) whereby he lied in stating that he unknowingly imbibed a drink spiked by his assistant. This is a good article that everyone would enjoy.
