Trying to Win at Love tells the funny and inspiring story of a new tennis captain pressed into running a local team because "there's no one else." As his own expectations for success rise, the rookie captain begins to equate wins as validation from his players and competitors. His troubles, which aren't limited to the court, soon mount as quickly as his victories. He finds himself dealing with scheming opponents, bickering teammates, a commitment-crazed girlfriend, and a father he desperately wants approval from. A group of colorful characters and extraordinary events teach him valuable lessons about winning on the court and in life.

Design your game plan. Determine your shot patterns. Deploy your singles tactics. Dominate your doubles opponents. Develop yourself by learning from the pros.

Rene' Vidal, a proven leader in the sports and consulting industry for two decades, presents PLAY SMART TO WIN, a distillation of the core strategic principles that have guided top players to achieve great results both on and off the tennis court.

Hinds Director of Tennis (From the Foreword) "PLAY SMART TO WIN should be read by players of any level if they're interested in improving their game." --Dick Savitt, Australian and Wimbledon Grand Slam Singles Champion "It's only fitting that one of the smartest coaches in tennis writes a book on intelligent play.

This book shares my personal knowledge of tennis. I am an amateur player. I started late, at the age of fifty-four. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose, but I always understand the game. It was impossible without knowledge. Years ago my frustration in skiing came to an end due to a picture that compared skiing to bicycle riding* It was all I needed for skiing technique to become natural to me and to become an advanced skier in a matter of days. The necessity to find the "bicycle" of tennis to really start playing was obvious to me. My background made it possible. Actually, it was two "bicycles" two elements that constitute a powerful tennis stroke. Once found, my game changed from end to end. Implementing these two elements in a stroke and practicing them, rather than chasing a ball, became a major part of my training. Hitting the ball became a result of a well-designed tennis stroke. Identifying and understanding elements of a tennis stroke require knowledge in physics. Sharing this knowledge in a simple language is all this book is about: illustration of two elements that constitute every powerful tennis stroke and then presenting the forehand, backhand, and service as a combination of these two. *The Anatomy of Skiing by R.
