Branham does a great job showing the excellence of Pete's game and personality. Enough of this stuff that he doesn't have what it takes. The contrast between him and others who have the glitter show who has the endurance at the top.
Sampras is too full of character to withstand the beratement he receives from a press-gone-crazy world who rather likes flash and glitter and controversy and rebellious character. Pete is solid, off both sides of the groundies and of course the serve and volley.
What an outstanding young person whom other hopeful racket swinging youth can emulate --- the guy isn't about show but go. Especially his love of the Rocket and the inheritance those guys gave and their sacrifice is neat. I grew up with the Chuck McKinley/Dennis Ralston era.
The book traces his record in the Majors, with the underlying background to the big matches and Pete's life. Influenced greatly by his very first coach, a pediatrician. Later, with one whom he truly bonded was taken suddenly. What endurance and character.
This guy deserves his high spot in tennis annals. Great read. Thanks Branham.

I'm sure this was a great book when it was published in 1996. However, realize that if you're really interested in an up to date biography of Sampras, this one is way behind.
