Boris Becker shot to fame in 1985 when at seventeen years old, he
became the youngest player ever to win the men's final at
Wimbledon. He went on to win two more Wimbledon titles, and a total
of forty-nine singles and fifteen doubles crowns, making him one of
the greatest players of the twentieth century. But his life off the
court has always attracted as much attention as his triumphs on it.
Now, in this remarkably candid and thought-provoking autobiography,
Boris Becker tells the real story behind the headlines. He speaks
of the seconds before the serve that made him the youngest
Wimbledon winner of all time, and of the minutes after being
sentenced as a tax evader. He talks about his marriage, his
illegitimate daughter, and his painful divorce. He reveals his
emotions at the end of his tennis career, and his battles with
pills and alcohol. He also shares his memories of the good times,
the championship wins, the make-or-break matches, and the highs and
lows of life on the international circuit. Boris Becker has written
this autobiography not just for his fans but also for his children,
that they may one day read the true account of their father's
remarkable, and often controversial, life.
