Book Synopsis Advantage India: The Story of Indian Tennis by : Anindya Dutta
Download or read book Advantage India: The Story of Indian Tennis written by Anindya Dutta and published by Westland Sport. This book was released on with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About the Book A COMPREHENSIVE HISTORY OF INDIAN TENNIS THAT CAPTURES THE SPORT OVER THE LAST TWO DECADES. The history of Indian tennis begins in the late nineteenth century, soon after it was established as a competitive sport in England. The sport quickly caught the imagination of the colonised just as much as it had of the colonisers. In those early years, Mohammed Sleem, the Fyzee brothers, S.M. Jacob and Ghaus Mohammed (whose genius was sadly curtailed by the Second World War) were the heroes tennis needed, claiming it for India. After Independence, a new set of players set the courts ablaze: Dilip Bose, Sumant Misra, Naresh Kumar and the dazzling Ramanathan Krishnan, who remains one of India’s biggest icons. In the 1970s and 1980s, Vijay Amritraj and Ramesh Krishnan established India as a regular on the international stage, until finally in the mid-1990s, Leander Paes and Mahesh Bhupathi earned the country its first Grand Slam titles. Today, tennis is deeply entrenched in India, with players like Rohan Bopanna and Sania Mirza—the superstar who transformed women’s tennis in her country—being huge sporting icons and much sought after for endorsements. Advantage India is a deeply researched and engaging account of the exhilarating journey of Indian tennis, with a special section on the Doubles game and on women’s tennis in India. A must-have for every sports lover.

Download or read book The Davis Cup written by Richard Evans and published by Universe Publishing(NY). This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Davis Cup offered me more immediate pleasure than almost anything else I accomplished in my career....I hope you enjoy this detailed history of a unique competition. Whether it is played at Kooyong or Casablanca, a World Group Final or a first round in the African Zone, Davis Cup offers tennis players the rare chance of experiencing the thrill of playing for your teammates and your country."--John McEnroe, from the "Foreword" Back in Boston in 1900, they called it "Dwight's little pot," but very soon it turned out to be much more than that. Dwight Davis's idea of offering a silver bowl as a prize to be fought for each year between tennis-playing nations grew into one of the most recognized and keenly contested annual sporting competitions in the world. Beginning as a match between the United States and the British Isles at the Longwood Cricket Club, the Davis Cup has endured for one hundred years, modifying itself now and again, but essentially remaining what Dwight Davis always intended it to be: a means of nurturing healthy sporting relations between countries all over the globe. In this lavishly illustrated history, Richard Evans, one of the world's leading tennis writers, chronicles not merely the matches that caught the imagination of millions but the extraordinary array of personalities who gave the Cup its luster and whose names are now engraved on its silver panels-- Anthony Wilding, the dashing New Zealander who rode from tournament to tournament on one of the first motorbikes, leaving a trail of broken hearts in his wake; Wilding's Australian colleague Norman Brookes, a taciturn man known as "the Wizard"; or Maurice McLoughlin, dubbed "the Californian Comet."There was Bill Tilden, arrogant, effete, and outrageous, who insisted on playing his own "sweet game" on and off the court and became a world superstar doing it. Or the Four Musketeers who held the Cup for France for six years before a handsome Englishman with the wrong accent-- at least for the snob-ridden 1930s-- came along to snatch it away. Fred Perry won the Cup for Britain three times, and now it has fallen to Greg Rusedski and Tim Henman to try to get it back. The Harry Hopman dynasty, in which the legendary Australian coach produced a conveyer belt of champions-- from Frank Sedgman, Lew Hoad, and Ken Rosewall to Rod Laver, Roy Emerson, and John Newcombe-- was centered around Davis Cup triumph; and the story continues, through the turbulent years of Ilie Nastase and John McEnroe to Yannick Noah's successes for France in the 1990s. The Davis Cup has quite a story to tell. And this book tells that story: an unforgettable sporting and social odyssey covering one hundred years.
