Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
American Doubles explores the phenomenon of the United States' doubles prowess on the world's tennis courts. Many fans and journalists lament the state of American tennis, wondering when the subsequent great players will hit the scene. What the critics don't know is that Americans have dominated the doubles scene for decades and the future looks bright. From the successes of such legends as Billie Jean King and Stan Smith to the current No. 1 Bob and Mike Bryan, the story of how Americans have come to rule the doubles court is a fascinating tale told by a tennis insider and journalist, Marcia Frost. Readers will learn that the sucess of Americans in the doubles game runs deep-at the junior and college levels to wheelchair tennis, mixed doubles, World TeamTennis and the pro tours. Stanford University's Dick Gould, who coached the Bryans as well as John and Patrick McEnroe, says the book offers 'a close-up view that is intriguing, exciting and impossible to put down.'
