Tennis legend John McEnroe embodies the American spirit. On and off the court, McEnroe has proven himself to be one of the most intriguing and controversial public figures of his time. Throughout his playing years, his bold and irreverent style made him, for many, a symbol for a generation of “rock n’ roll” athletes. Since leaving the court, his unique commentary and style in the broadcast booth have garnered him national Sports Emmy nominations.

We are pleased to offer this distinguished lineup for only $180 – that is $45 per event! If available, limited single tickets will go on sale after our first speaker, Jenna Hager, on September 18, 2025.
