About this Item

Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine. First Printing. The story of a young girl in pigtails and braces who made her way through the world of bi-money tennis and high-stakes matches. Austin skyrocketed to tennis stardom by becoming the youngest player in history to win the U.S. Open singles championship. Number one in the world in 1980, she suddenly began developing debilitating injuries. Thus began her downward spiral until her tennis career came to a screeching halt at age 21. This is Tracy's own insightful autobiography, a testimony to the fact that she is not only fully recovered, but on her game again with a whole new outlook on her life.
