Since retiring after the 2006 U.S. Open, Agassi has participated in a series of charity tournaments and continues his work with his own charity. On September 5, 2007, Agassi was a surprise guest commentator for the Andy Roddick/Roger Federer 2007 U.S. Open quarterfinal.

Agassi then turned to fellow player Brad Gilbert to coach him. Soon after, he clinched the U.S. Open in 1994, the Australian Open in 1995 and the Olympic gold medal in 1996.

That is not the first time Harry Winston has produced and donated a unique timepiece in cooperation with Andre Agassi. In 2006 the watchmaking company created a one-of-a-kind watch based on the brand's Ocean Diver timepiece. The details of the timepiece were inspired by Andre Agassi's remarkable tennis career. The timekeeping wonder was presented in the live auction in front of an 8,000-guests audience. Then, the Harry Winston watch was acquired for US 110,000 dollars at the auction.

“To give or not to give?” This is a question that runs through many heads, but not Andre Agassi's. For Andre, generosity comes instinctively. He is a kind man with a good heart and realizes that he has made more money in his life than he is likely able to spend. Agassi has used his excess wealth and used it well.

Agassi's serve was never the strength of his game, but it improved steadily over the course of his career, and went from being a liability to being an average serve. His most effective serve was a hard slice, which he would use to ace opponents in the ad court, and to send his opponent wide off the court when serving on the deuce side, followed by a shot to the opposite corner to send his opponent scrambling. He relied on a heavy kick serve for his second serve, particularly early in his career.
