BOLLETTIERI AUTOBIOGRAPHY TELLS ALL ABOUT LIFE ON AND OFF THE TENNIS COURT  |

Legendary tennis coach Nick Bollettieri has led life with the intensity of a fifth set tiebreaker. In his autobiography he tells all, from his humble beginnings in a suburb of New York to his triumphs on the center courts at Wimbledon, the French Open, the Australian Open and the U.S. Open.

 

Mincing no words, he discusses his 10 world champions, 9 lives, 8 wives, 7 children, and all the successes and failures in between. His advice, based on five decades of dominance in sports training, is inspirational, motivational and reaches far beyond the tennis court.

 

Considered by many to be one of the greatest tennis coaches of all time, Bollettieri has changed the way the game is played and taught at every level. He founded the Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy in Bradenton, Florida – now the IMG Academy – with a focus on intense physical training, total immersion and ongoing competition among the most talented players in the world.

 

Often controversial, he has helped shape the careers of Andre Agassi, Serena Williams, Venus Williams, Maria Sharapova, Jim Courier, Boris Becker, Monica Seles, Marcelo Rios, Jalena Jankovic, Martina Hingis, Anna Kournikova, Tommy Haas, Kei Nishikori, Sabine Lisicki and other tennis champions. His accomplishments have been imitated but never equaled.

 

Written with Bob Davis, former CEO of the Ashe-Bollettieri “Cities” Tennis Program and an associate of Bollettieri‘s for more than 30 years, the book tells a high-spirited story of a brilliant innovator whose demands for excellence and achievement at all costs have impacted and changed lives throughout the world.

Retail sales are handled through local or online bookstores including Barnes and Noble, amazon.com, bn.com, powells.com, indiebound.com, and others.
