Description
Conor Niland was Ireland's top-ranked tennis player for much of his youth and all of his adult career. As a youth player he beat Roger Federer and his career peaked in 2011 when he reached the main draw of both Wimbledon and the US Open. This remarkable story paints a vivid picture of the social dynamics on tour, the economics of the game, and the shadows cast by gambling and doping. It is a witty and revealing underdog's memoir and a unique look inside tennis's hidden world.
