Will Andre play Kooyong??

Andre Agassi has still not confirmed he will play next January's Kooyong Classic and Australian Open. Tournament directos at Kooyong are said to be urgently needing a response from Andre with Richard Gasquet, Marat Safin, Taylor Dent and Andy Murray all in talks for the remaining two spots. Ivan Ljubicic was confirmed for the Sixth spot on Monday. They are holding one spot for Andre if he wants to play but CONFIRMATION is needed about his intentions for 2006. Agassi said when arriving in Shanghai to play TMC that an announcement about 2006 would be made after the TMC.

Tournament organisers at Dubai have confirmed he will be playing next year.

You know, Andre's reluctance to commit to Kooyong might mean that he may decide to play the warm-up tournament in Sydney instead. Isn't Addidas connected to the Sydney event???
