What became of Guga Kuerten? The Brazilian tennis legend

What does Kuerten do today?

At present 'Guga' Kuerten is dedicated to the business world together with his brother Rafael through the company Grupo Guga Kuerten, a fact for which he was involved in problems and forced to pay two million dollars for tax fraud during his stage as a player between 1999 and 2002. From this holding Kuerten manages his image rights, in addition to promoting a real estate business and is the image of the investment platform Genial Investimentos, which seeks to expand financial education in Brazil and has more than 300.0 clients, 40,000 million reais in assets (6,000 million euros) and more than 200 offices.
Kuerten's life is also linked to the world of tennis, since he manages several venues for the practice of tennis for young talents, at the same time that he created his own foundation to guarantee the social inclusion of children, adolescents and people with disabilities in his native Florianopolis. Kuerten, who did not publicly support any of the candidates in the last presidential elections in Brazil in which Jair Bolsonaro won, did mobilize last June to support the platform 'Esporte pela Democracia' (Sport for Democracy ) to combat racism and inequalities with more Brazilian athletes.
However, on more than one occasion, he has also shown his desire to return to play against great figures, and among them, he is clear who to choose: “Rafa Nadal, of course. He is the one who is closest to what I did. and against whom would I most want to play “. A worthy heir to Guga Kuerten, the last great king of Roland Garros before the arrival of Nadal and the last tennis player to win the heart of Paris.
