After this news, tennis fans penned down their varied reactions in the comments regarding what they want in the movie and whether it should share any connection with his ‘Open’ autobiography.
Notably, a fan wrote, “Long overdue! Biggest icon tennis has ever had. Compared to Agassi the big three have the charm of a dull and corporate accountant. His career covered so many different Agassi’s. We witnessed the evolution of a novel character who was always eager to grow.”
