John McEnroe enjoyed tremendous success at all levels of
tennis and owns 77 career singles titles, including seven 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 eight Grand Slams. Still an active player,
McEnroe is now a tennis commentator and broadcaster for the BBC and
other national networks. This autobiography covers his amazing
tennis career, marriage to movie star Tatum O''Neal and where
arguably the greatest tennis player of all time goes from
here.
