Book Reviews of Winning Ugly: Mental Warfare in Tennis--Lessons from a Master

Book Review: A pure ace from start to finish
Summary: 5 Stars

After playing women's doubles in our inter-club league for such a short time and being so unsuccessful. The tennis pro at the country club where I belonged recommended Brad's book. After reading and highlighting the book I would like to say I won every match I played. Well I didn't. But it was not for a lack of trying. I tried everthing that Brad said. After a while , with book constantly at hand. I did win some matches.! I know I drove some poeple to distraction. ( a nicer way to say I DROVE THEM CRAZY ) quoting Gilbert. Well our Pro took the book off me, I thought to throw it away. Instead he went to the USopen that year and had Brad Gilbert autograph it for me. It is ONE of my prized possessions. Along with Jimmy Connors autograph on my Prince Racquet cover. Thanks Brad. I may never be famous for my tennis. But it has made tennis a lot more interesting.
