A tennis book suited for advanced tournament players. It is an easy, but interesting read. Like other tennis literature hits such as The Inner Game of Tennis and Winning Ugly, The Lure of the Big Game describes a new angle at achieving a winning game. It is becoming a staple on every aspiring tennis player's bookshelf. The Lure of the Big Game describes highly effective baseline strategies based on applying advantageous patterns, principles to defeat players such as the big server, the lefty, and the big forehand, methods to get psyched up before every match, the importance of breaking down a match into its component parts, the most effective way to develop explosive speed and match-winning stamina, how to prevent and handle cramps, and many other facets of the game including choking, players who cheat, mind-games, and psychological quandaries. Ty Tucker, Ohio State Men's Tennis Coach and Former #1 Junior in the World: "If you can't get 5 or 6 points better a set with this book, you might as well hang up your racquets."

Reviews

An advanced tennis book for serious players frustrated with tennis books written for beginners. The Lure of the Big Game is a book written not by a country-club pro, but by a player experienced in the often dark and dirty trenches of competitive tennis. This book sheds the first light on depths of the game unknown by most players. An aspiring player can either learn from their mistakes or avoid the tricky pitfalls and get a head start by reading this book.
