Beschreibung
From tennis apprentice to the Wimbledon Championships, 'Championship Points' is a sporting love story for the ages. The tale of a sports-obsessed Derbyshire lad journeying through several decades of professional tennis as player, coach and official, attempting to balance his passion and talent for sport with other interests; and always with an unwavering infatuation for the fun side of life. Told through the eyes of someone who has been there and done it (and got the famous purple/green Wimbledon striped tie to prove it!) from inside the modern professional tennis world, witnessing the sublime and the ridiculous of household name players, coaches and personalities.
Sometimes the questionable demands of professional sport get in the way of the author's unbridled "love of the game", and so, on occasion, he passes critical and amusing comment on these frustrations from his unique position of authority. He pokes fun at the stuffy, has high regard for the honest, hard-working triers, and never believes the inflated hype of the self-fulfilling publicity machines. This book tells it as it is. Honest views backed by independent judgment underpin every page. There's no suggestion of "the older I get the better I used to be" syndrome! Containing personal stories and anecdotes from years of involvement in professional tennis, readers will learn a whole lot more - good and bad - that is never covered by the mainstream media. Welcome to the eventful, and frequently funny, sporting life of Andrew Jarrett. von Jarrett, AndrewProduktdetails
