The master : the long run and beautiful game of Roger Federer / Christopher Clarey. - First edition. - 421 pages, 8 unnumbered pages of plates : color illustrations ; 24 cm
Includes index.
Roger Federer has often made it look astonishingly easy through the decades, but his path from temperamental, bleach-blond teenager with dubious style sense to one of the greatest, most self-possessed and elegant of competitors has been a long-running act of will, not destiny. He not only had a great gift-- he had grit. Clarey, with access to the man himself, his support team, and the most prominent figures in the game-- included his rivals-- focuses on the pivotal people, places, and moments in Federer's long and rich career.
