Kuerten up - tennis legend has a new challenge at theatre school

Gustavo Kuerten
Kuerten, known as "Guga", was a firm favourite with tennis fans

Three-time French Open champion Gustavo Kuerten is going back to school after winning admission to theatre college in his native Brazil.

Kuerten, 32, a former world number one who retired last year, begins classes in Florianopolis on 16 February.

As one of Brazil's biggest sporting idols, he required security when he took the admission test last year.

Kuerten won 20 singles titles in his 15-year career including at Roland Garros in 1997, 2000 and 2001.
