Jaz Elle Agassi has developed her own interests despite being one of the two kids of tennis legends Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf. From childhood to her teenage years, she displayed her passion, which, interestingly, doesn't lie in tennis.
Jaz Elle Agassi maintains a private life, but her low-key lifestyle doesn't prevent her father, Andre Agassi, who is also Steffi Graf's husband, from eagerly sharing her interests in public.
There were also remarkable moments captured in public when Jaz showed her unwavering support for her father and brother in their respective games.

Jaz Had Keen Interest In Horse Riding & Dancing
Jaz was the couple's youngest child, born on October 3, 2003. In her father's memoir, the tennis legend elaborated that like with the birth of his son, the star and his wife "secretly vow she won't play tennis." She did, indeed, pursue other interests naturally as got older.
At seven years old, Jaz loved horseback riding and played "a little bit of tennis." She and her older sibling, Jaden, displayed their love for the arts and music.
In a 2018 interview with "The Rich Eisen Show," Jaz's dad noted that she was into dancing hip-hop for "a lot of years."

Jaz has kept a low profile on social media, rarely sharing details about her personal life. She only had one post on her Instagram page, which dates back to December 2022.
However, she dedicated a collection of photos of her dog, Blue, and the winter vacation to the platform's Story Highlights. Additionally, she has also shared a set of pictures showcasing her pickup truck.
Jaz Has Supported Her Brother In Baseball & Dad In Tennis
Jaz had the opportunity to watch one of her parents play on the court. Her support was noticeable when she, alongside her mother, attended her father's matches at the 2005 US Open, where he competed against Robby Ginepri and Roger Federer.
Jaz also supported her brother's baseball match in Los Angeles in February 2023. Jaden, born on October 26, 2001, is a college student at the University of Southern California and one of the players on the university's baseball team.
During the game, Jaden displayed his pitching skills, and on the sidelines, Jaz, along with her father and mother, passionately cheered for the young athlete's prowess.

Andre Allows Their Kids To Follow Their Passions
Jaz's parents, who tied the knot on October 22, 2001, in Las Vegas, are renowned figures in the tennis world. Despite their fame, they were not keen to let their kids follow in their footsteps. Her dad said in 2018:
"We weren't motivated to—necessarily in addition the tennis—didn't feel compelled to do so, and they certainly didn't choose it as they had, you know, plenty of options for their own life, and we just hold them accountable to what they claim they value and make sure that they're living it."
Steffi is regarded as one of tennis's most outstanding female players, achieving 22 major singles titles and a unique "Golden Grand Slam." She excelled on all surfaces of the sport and had an exceptional 90% win rate in major finals.
Andre won eight major singles titles and an Olympic Gold Medal. His rivalry with Pete Sampras was a highlight of his career, and he achieved the Career Grand Slam, winning all four major championships.
Steffi retired from the sport in 1999, while Andre bid goodbye to his athletic career in 2006. The couple has dedicated themselves to philanthropy, with Andre establishing the Agassi Foundation and Steffi founding the Children For Tomorrow non-profit.
Their stellar achievements in the community are similar to fellow tennis superstars like Naomi Osaka, Serena and Venus Williams. Steffi retired from the sport in 1999, and Andre bid farewell to his athletic career in 2006.
