The Moonballer is the first ever book written by an Indian female
tennis player. From a modest background with no sponsors and a
self-trained father as her tennis coach, she became India's no. 1
at 14 years of age. She was the first Indian woman ever to win a
round at a Grand Slam (Australian Open 1998) and became the first
mother to play for India at the 2010 Commonwealth and Asian Games.
This memoir is refreshingly unique as it keeps tennis as the crux,
but weaves in many intricate threads that pertain to women,
society, travel, safety and money. Nirupama was the no. 1 woman
player for India for over a decade. At a time when professional
tennis for women was unheard of in India, she embarked on a journey
with sheer will, determination and talent. She was one of the very
few people who played all the top events including Wimbledon as a
junior, qualifier, main draw player and a commentator for ESPN/Star
Sports.
