At 34 years of age, Gregory Howe quit teaching in London to chase
his childhood dream of becoming a world-ranked tennis professional.
He started his year-long journey in the minor leagues, playing
across four continents, as far afield as Bangkok, Kampala and
Lahore, initially struggling against younger, fitter aspiring pros.
Breaking through to the elite ATP tour, he got within volleying
distance of some of the greats of the modern game. Eventually, he
managed to juggle competing on the ATP tour with holding down a
nine-to-five job. Along the way he encountered almost everything
the tennis world has to offer, from rising stars racing to the top,
to players whose hopes are slowly being shattered. Chasing Points:
A Season on the Men's Pro Tennis Circuit offers a rare
behind-the-scenes glimpse into the life of a touring tennis
professional from the perspective of a real 'underdog'.
