    Andre Agassi - Open Film Series

    Not sure if these are shown on broadcasts outside of Australia since they're made by an Aussie wine company but if you're an Agassi fan (or just bored) you should check out openfilmseries.com. There are 10 clips although only 7 are available so far and they're only about 2-3 mins each. Love these so much.

    Oh and the same plug I do 25 times a year: Make sure to get a copy of "Open", Andre's autobiography if you haven't already. You won't be disappointed I promise!

    I liked these two, about the first time he beat his brother and wanting to win Wimbledon so he could dance with Steffi, only to have them cancel it on him.

    I saw the main wine they are promoting, Jacobs Creek Cool Harvest range, in the bottle shop last night.

    Jacobs Creek has been an under $10 a bottle winemaker for years. Probably one of the best in that price range as far as being safe and reliable, but always a cheapie.

    This Cool Harvest stuff is $18.99 a bottle.

    Just goes to show the real cost of all this advertising eh!

    "this video is not available in your country" (USA)



    Big Agassi fan, even have a story of stalking him. I'll have to try to find these somewhere else.

    Weird that anyone would be blocked.

    Maybe they plan on selling it for reuse to some US company.

    Ummmmm you HAVE to tell us your story!!

    So this one is obviously my favourite all along (not too surprising it makes me bawl each of the 32k times I've seen it)



    And yeah Opti, I loved those ones too. Actually I loved them all. He loved Steffi for soooooooo long. Can you imagine how gutted he'd have been when they cancelled??? I've even been going back and watching the ones from last year. Can't wait to see the clips from the charity stuff here in Melb. Should be out before the finals.

    No, I'm pretty sure not. It was a massive deal when it became obvious Andre was going to surpass Phillip... and then throw in the hardcore dad I can only imagine how that would've been. I guess the same that goes on in every house where one sibling starts playing a sport and the baby surpasses them ie Serena and Venus. The dynamics must've been crazy especially when you include parents.
