This thesis deals with the analysis of the media image of a hockey player Jaromir Jagr during the past 20 years (1994-2014), when he was a significant figure in the Czech national hockey team and one of the most outstanding athletes of the country. Qualitative analysis of the texts subjected primarily from three major newspapers (Sport, Mladá Fronta DNES, Blesk) is supplemented by examples from books and television programs. The research sample is defined by periods in which Jaromir Jagr have had publicity mainly due to the events in his sports career. Analysed periods mostly connect to major tournaments of hockey national team or to change of Jagr's employer. With the help of specific examples of each of the time periods this thesis describes the evolution of reporting about Jagr in Czech mass media. In terms of media theory it classifies analyzed media exposure with identifying myths and elements of celebritization contained in the texts. They make the media picture of Jagr different during the time. The analysis shows that the media image of Jaromir Jagr has undergone significant changes during the period.
