16  A team gets better. A kid practices more and swims a personal best or learns a new move on the basketball court. In 2006, two things happened that got me thinking about change—in sports and in life.

17 Agassi was a terrific player who won 60 titles, including eight major championships. But his greatest accomplishment might have been how much he changed during his career.

When he was young, Agassi was a showoff who seemed to care only about himself. He didn’t train very hard, but he won matches because of his tremendous talent. 18  He fell from No.1 in the world ranking to No.141.

So Agassi changed. He trained harder and become a world-class player again.  19

He was nicer to fans and opponents. He stopped thinking just about himself and started thinking about others. Through his Andre Agassi Charitable Foundation, he raised more than $60 million to help disadvantaged kids around his hometown of Las Vegas, Nevada. He even started a school, the Andre Agassi College Preparatory Academy, for at-risk kids.

20 But they do happen. Just remember Andre Agassi. It wasn’t easy, but he changed, and changed for the better.

A. More important, he changed as a person.

B. Finally, everyone should remember that being an excellent player is a tough job.

C Changes such as those can be difficult.

D. Sports are all about change.

E. Eventually, though, injuries and his bad attitude caught up with him.

F. One of them is tennis champion Andre Agassi, who retired in 2006

G. What Agassi needed to learn was that he should train harder and perform better.
