In this new autobiography, “A Champion’s Mind: Lessons from a Life in Tennis,” Pete Sampras tells the remarkable inside story of how he became the best player in tennis history and what life was like on at the top of the tennis world. Unlike my celebrity biographies, this book is remarkable for its candor and detail, as Pete shares his often blunt opinions about his family, his coaches, other tour players, his marriage, and the media, infused throughout by his characteristic dry humor. Tremendous reading for anyone interested in not only the life and times of this great champion, but the evolution of the modern game of tennis.
