Hiding Inside the Baseline
Hiding Inside the Baseline is a watershed book. The unvarnished story of an elite American junior player who happened to grow up gay. Bobby Blair is the first high level tennis player to come out, part of the start of a movement in sports that is undoubtedly only beginning. Written in conjunction with Barry Buss, himself the author of a tennis autobiography acclaimed for its searing honesty, Hiding Inside the Baseline tells the whole story of Bobby’s life, how he grappled with his sexuality in the straight world of big time tennis, and how he came to accept himself, go on to great success, and find a way to contribute back to the Florida LGBT community.
