Serious

John McEnroe made waves from his very first Wimbledon in 1977. An eighteen-year-old qualifier from Queens, New York, he stunned the tennis world by reaching the semi-finals, and shocked it with his on court behaviour. What followed was a double act of technique and temperament that set the sport alight: SuperMac, the sublime, unorthodox genius, who won seven Grand Slams and seventy seven singles titles, Superbrat, the foul-mouthed fireball, furiously yelling at officials, fans, players and himself alike. John McEnroe can be serious. He can also be humorous, impassioned, controversial and painfully honest. This is his autobiography, a book as enthralling and as straight talking as the great man himself.
