Andre Agassi shares his daughter Jaz's admiration for Emma Navarro, as evidenced by his glowing remark for the 23-year-old at a press conference during the charity event in Asheville.

Tennis journalist Myles David took to social media and revealed that Agassi had referred to the World No. 9 as his favorite tennis player in the world.

"Andre Agassi just said Emma Navarro is his most favorite tennis player in the world," David posted on X.

Interestingly, Agassi's former coach, Darren Cahill, has expressed similar sentiments about Navarro. During the 2024 Wimbledon Championships, Cahill lavished praise on the American's playing style and humility, deeming her his favorite female player on tour.

"She is a delight to watch. Everything about (her); the way she plays, the variation in her game, the slice backhands, the (coming) to the net, being brave in the big moments," Cahill said.

"And her demeanour, her humbleness. Feet on the ground, didn't get too excited when she won a couple of big matches over Osaka and also Gauff. She is my new favourite female player," he added.

Emma Navarro will be in action at the 2025 Qatar Open next, which will commence on February 9.
