As autobiographies go, the gold standard for sports autobiographies was set nearly a decade ago by Andre Agassi's Open.

Andre Kirk Agassi born on the 29th April 1970 is an American retired professional tennis player and former world no. 1 and perhaps one of the sports most dominant players from the early -1990s to the mid - 2000s. In fact some even consider him to be one of the greatest players of all times. His major accomplishments being the 7 Grand Slam titles he has won.

The Australian Open in 1995, 2000 and 2001, the Wimbledon in 1992, the US in 1994 and 1999 and the French in 1999.

It is the most honest, searing and open biography by a sports person.

From his obsessive father, to his loving under-achieving brother, to his relationships with Barbara Streisand and Brooke Shields, nothing has been left out.

His caustic criticism of Jimmy Connors and his intense dislike for Boris Becker. The story doesn't flinch from those uncomfortable moments that arise from time to time in a sportsman's life.

His courtship of his wife Steffi Graf, his rage at seeing her shooting a romantic scene in FRIENDS.

His matches, his victories, the training schedules and dietary regime all add up to make it a wonderful read...
