A tennis correspondent for the New York Times sits down with Roger Federer and those closest to him to tell the story of the greatest player in men's tennis.
What The Reviewers Say
Clarey makes the most of more than 20 years of journalistic access to Federer across six continents.
Clarey’s purpose is perhaps the most comprehensive book to date, an account of Federer’s journey from young prodigy to elder statesman that contains copious detail.
Few writers could capture the evolution of Roger Federer’s ascent to the top of his sport from his start at age eight with more clarity and vision than New York Times tennis correspondent Clarey. He offers a master class in sportswriting as he presents the case for Greatest of All-Time (GOAT), tracing the growth and influences of the tennis superstar.
Although many articles have been written about tennis champ Roger Federer, this new biography could easily become the definitive book-length treatment.
