Upon retiring from tennis on September 3, 2006, after losing in the U.S. Open third round, ANDRE AGASSI SPEAKER received an eight minute
standing ovation. His closing remarks will be remembered as one of the most inspirational and loving messages to fans ever: "Thanks.
The scoreboard said I lost today, but what the scoreboard doesn't say is what it is I have found. And over the last 21 years, I have found loyalty. You have pulled for me on the court and also in
life. I've found inspiration. You have willed me to succeed sometimes even in my lowest moments. And I've found generosity. You have given me your shoulders to stand on to reach for my dreams,
dreams I could never have reached without you. Over the last 21 years, I have found you. And I will take you and the memory of you with me for the rest of my life."
