Description:
In WOMEN ON THE CENTRE COURT, Marcella Mesker uses anecdotes from the tennis world to write about the lives of women at the top. She gives us an intimate look behind the scenes of international professional tennis and is also very candid about her own experiences in a top-level sports world.
Maria Sharapova left her homeland as a six-year-old girl, Steffi Graf changed from a German prodigy into a shy young woman, Jennifer Capriati got into drugs and ended up in prison, Belgian Justine Henin paid a high price for her success and Martina Navratilova applied for political asylum in America. All strong women who, thanks to enormous perseverance, overcame setbacks in their lives and realized their dreams.
WOMEN ON THE CENTRE COURT is a unique book about tennis women and their upbringing, loneliness and jealousy in a woman's world, dealing with setbacks and success, the search for balance in body and mind and saying goodbye to a tennis career. Candid, honest and revealing.
