Andre Agassi’s career combined eight major singles titles, Olympic gold and a memorable return to the top of men’s tennis. Celebrity Net Worth estimates his net worth at $145 million. That is a third-party estimate, not an audited disclosure of his assets and debts. His completed playing record and education work are better documented than the value of his private investments or the amount of money he retained from his career.
What is Andre Agassi’s net worth?
Celebrity Net Worth lists Agassi at an estimated $145 million. Its profile does not display a last-updated date. The figure is therefore the site’s current published estimate, not a dated financial statement provided by Agassi.
Prize money and endorsements were part of his professional tennis career, but career revenue is not the same thing as present personal wealth. Taxes, costs, contracts and private financial decisions all stand between a public earnings figure and a balance sheet. This profile does not convert historical career earnings into a new net-worth calculation or combine Agassi’s estimate with anyone else’s finances.
Background: Las Vegas and an early tennis education
The International Tennis Hall of Fame biography records that Andre Agassi was born on April 29, 1970, in Las Vegas, Nevada. His father, Mike, an Iranian immigrant and former Olympic boxer, introduced him to tennis as a child. Agassi later trained at Nick Bollettieri’s academy in Florida and turned professional in 1986.
His game centered on aggressive baseline play and taking the ball early. His public image was equally distinctive, with colorful clothing, long hair and prominent advertising campaigns. The Hall of Fame describes how that image attracted attention before his first major title. His later career added a different story: recovery from setbacks, a more measured approach to competition and a growing focus on education beyond tennis.
Career timeline: Wimbledon, world No. 1 and the career Grand Slam
- 1986: Agassi turned professional after his junior years and training in Florida, according to the Hall of Fame.
- 1992: He won Wimbledon, defeating Goran Ivanisevic in a five-set final for his first major singles title.
- 1994: He won the US Open, adding a second major championship to his record.
- 1995: Agassi won his first Australian Open and reached world No. 1 for the first time on April 10. The ATP’s April 10, 2025 retrospective confirms that ranking date and explains the importance of his wins over Pete Sampras.
- 1996: He won the men’s singles gold medal at the Atlanta Olympic Games, a result recorded by the Hall of Fame.
- 1999: Agassi won Roland-Garros and the US Open. His French title completed the career Grand Slam, meaning he had won the singles championship at each of the four majors.
- 2000, 2001 and 2003: He added three Australian Open titles to his 1995 win. His completed career included eight major singles titles: four in Australia, two at the US Open and one each at Wimbledon and Roland-Garros.
- 2006: Agassi retired after the US Open, where Benjamin Becker defeated him in the third round. That farewell closed his professional playing career rather than ending his involvement in public life.
- 2011: He was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame. RTÉ’s July 10, 2011 report covered the ceremony in Newport, Rhode Island.
Why the 1999 French Open stands out
Agassi’s Roland-Garros victory was more than another trophy in a long list. He had lost finals there in 1990 and 1991. In the 1999 final against Andrei Medvedev, he lost the opening two sets before coming back to win 1-6, 2-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-4.
The tournament’s April 29, 2020 retrospective dates the final to June 6, 1999, and includes Agassi’s recollection of a rain break that gave him time to settle down. The result completed the missing part of his Grand Slam collection and gives the career timeline a clear turning point.

Open: telling the story after retirement
Agassi’s autobiography, Open, added another public account of his life after he left the tour. Penguin Random House lists the hardcover publication date as November 9, 2009, with a paperback edition following on August 10, 2010.
The publisher describes a book about the pressure of his early training, his difficult relationship with fame and the gap between public success and private fulfillment. It is relevant to understanding his background and motivation. The fact that he published a memoir does not disclose an advance, royalty total or current value for his publishing income.
Education work and what happened to Agassi Prep
The Andre Agassi Foundation for Education’s own account dates its creation to 1994. Its focus is educational opportunity, a cause it connects with Agassi’s experience of sacrificing formal education for tennis.
The foundation’s Agassi Prep history states that the Andre Agassi College Preparatory Academy opened in 2001 in Historic West Las Vegas. It also records the handover of operations to Democracy Prep in 2017. The original Agassi Prep is no longer operating under that name, so older accounts of the school should not be read as a description of its present management.
The foundation says it transitioned from a public foundation to a private foundation in 2020. That work is part of Agassi’s post-tennis story, but charitable funds, school facilities and grants are not personal assets to add to his estimated net worth.

The bottom line
Andre Agassi’s reported $145 million net worth is Celebrity Net Worth’s estimate and cannot be independently verified here. His documented career includes eight major singles titles, Olympic gold, the 1999 career Grand Slam, a memoir and education work after retirement. Those facts provide context without treating old earnings figures or charitable activity as a complete picture of his private wealth.
