Auction bidder gets an eyeful of Graf

Leave it to the always-entertaining Andre Agassi to put a new spin on the trend of naked athlete cell phone photos.

No, the retired tennis star isn't the latest to suffer the embarrassment of seeing his "sexting" activities go viral. Agassi instead auctioned off a chance to view an image of his wife, Steffi Graf, naked.

Agassi was caught on video making the shocking offer at a recent charity auction in Taiwan.

"You pay more than $4,000," Agassi said, "and I will show you a picture of my wife on my phone, naked."

The offer drew laughter and applause, and a qualifying bid. The winning bidder joined Agassi onstage, took a quick glimpse and smiled in approval. Agassi shook his hand, and the two men hugged.

The tennis power couple have been married for nine years and have two children.

Graf, 41, won 22 Grand Slam titles in her stellar tennis career. Agassi, 40, won eight Grand Slam events.
