Description

The last of the four major tennis tournaments of the year, the US Open, offers consecration or disillusionment to tennis champions. This beautiful book retraces the epic of this Grand Slam stage — but an epic that is all the more authentic as it is Serena Williams, the champion who gave this word a whole new meaning, who tells it!
