Synopsis

Lleyton Hewitt has been described as "a lion," "a computer," "a boxer," "a beast." Racing around the court with the fury of an attacking tiger, wielding his Yonex like a light saber against Darth Vader, Hewitt strikes a unique figure. Propelled by an extraordinary drive and desire, the fiery Australian counterpuncher has achieved a Hall of Fame worthy career since first qualifying for the Australian Open at age fifteen in 1997. In almost two decades on the ATP World Tour, Hewitt, the youngest player to ever achieve the ATP number one ranking, has won over 600 ATP matches, Wimbledon, the U.S. Open, Davis Cup, 29 singles titles overall, and over $20,000,000. In this book, over 50 ATP players recall their memories about competing against Hewitt, revealing fascinating insights and details about one of the most dynamic gladiators in tennis history...
