Description
Widely regarded as one of the greatest ever sportspeople, Roger Federer is a global phenomenon. From his humble beginnings as a temperamental teenager to becoming a symbol of enduring greatness, The Master is the definitive biography of a global icon who is both beloved and yet intensely private.
But his path from a temperamental, bleach-blond teenager with dubious style sense to one of the greatest, most self-possessed and elegant competitors has been a long-running act of will, not destiny. He not only had a great gift; he had grit.
With access to Federer's inner circle, including his wife, Mirka, and his longtime trainer, and based on one-on-one interviews with Federer, legendary sports reporter Chris Clarey's account will be a must-read retrospective for loyal sports fans and anyone interested in the inner workings of unfaltering excellence.
The Master tells the story of Federer's life and career on both an intimate and grand scale.
