Hello 24j27c-ga:

Thank you for your Question regarding Andre Agassi's earnings and sponsors.

In the 2003 tennis season, Andre Agassi's tournament winnings totalled
US$2,530,929:

For the same time period, his total earnings were an estimated US$24.0 million:

This number is estimated as the exact terms of his endorsement
contracts are not made public. Forbes bases their estimate on the
announced total value of the endorsement contract, divided over the
length of the contract.

Andre Agassi's major sponsors are Nike, American Express, Estee
Lauder's Aramis Life cologne, Head rackets (he used to rep Dunlop
rackets), Canon cameras, Schick (razors), Deutsche Bank (he needs
somewhere to keep all this endorsement cash!), and other smaller
sponsors such as his most recent, 24 Hour Fitness.

In recent years, he has also done high-profile bits for the Got Milk?
campaign, Mountain Dew, and Ray Ban sunglasses.

His sports management company is the SFX Sports Management Group:

Based on his 2003 earnings, Andre Agassi's actual tournament winnings
are about 10% of his total income for the year.

I hope that this information has been of help! Please let me know if
