John McEnroe enjoyed tremendous success at all levels of tennis, and he owns 77 career singles titles, including 7 Grand Slams. He joined the circuit in 1978 and it took him only three years to attain the No. 1 ranking. The 1980 Wimbledon final, between McEnroe and Bjorn Borg, is considered by many tennis experts to be the best match ever, a five-set thriller which McEnroe avenged the following year for his first Wimbledon title. In doubles, McEnroe is recognised as the best player of all time. He was ranked No. 1 for a record 257 weeks and captured a total of 74 titles, including 8 Grand Slams. Still an active player, McEnroe is now an outstanding tennis commentator and broadcaster for the BBC and other national networks. This autobiography, his first, covers an awesome tennis career, marriage to movie star Tatum O'Neal and where arguably the greatest tennis player of all time goes from here. This is SERIOUS.
The wildly entertaining Sunday Times bestseller 'This book deserves
to be seeded No. 1' Daily Mail Fifteen years after his massive
bestseller Serious, John McEnroe is back and ready to talk. Who are
the game's winners and losers? What's it like playing guitar
onstage with the Rolling Stones, hitting balls with today's greats,
breaking bread with his former on-court nemeses, getting scammed by
an international art dealer, and raising a big family while
balancing McEnroe-sized expectations? But Seriously is a richly
personal account, blending anecdote and reflection with razor sharp
and brutally honest opinions. This is the sports book of the year:
brilliantly funny, surprisingly touching, and 100% McEnroe.
