  From Publishers Weekly
  In his new role as TV commentator (and in his short-lived run as Davis
Cup captain) McEnroe has tried to make the unlikely switch from tennis enfant terrible to tennis elder statesman.
Judging by the welcome he has received from both the cognoscenti and the American public, it has been a largely
successful transition. This memoir of growing up (or not growing up) on the men's tour tracks the same course.
Unfortunately, when shifted to the page, the reinvention produces a much more muddled result. All of the career
highlights and lowlights are here his idolization of Borg, his seminal matches with Connors and at Davis Cup, his
clashes with the British press at Wimbledon, his romantic perambulations. But while appealingly self-aware ("For me, the
relief of not losing has always been just as strong as, if not stronger than, the joy of winning") and consistently
honorable, the effort feels a little dull. McEnroe's sincere pronouncements lack the cojones that might have made the
book entertaining, and yet for all his openness, he engages in too much self-justification to seem truly vulnerable or
poignant. The book grew out of a profile Kaplan wrote for the New Yorker two summers ago. That piece managed to present
McEnroe as affable without diluting what is essentially brash and true about the star, and one wishes a little more of
that boldness would have crept in here. For McEnroe, the persona hinted at in public remains more interesting and
complicated than the person he gives us in this book. While the champion would no doubt argue, it appears that he has
hit this one a little wide.

McEnroe, the feisty New Yorker whose brilliant serve-and-volley style of play was at times overshadowed by his on-court
antics, captured 17 Grand Slam championships during a 15-year "wild ride" on the professional tennis tour. Now, he and
journalist Kaplan take a candid look back at this colorful career. Smashing racquets and screaming tirades against
linesmen and umpires only cemented McEnroe's role as the explosive bad boy of tennis. Yet the Hall of Famer shows
surprising insight here. He explores why matches were constant battles against "the other guy and myself," admitting
that the relief of not failing was at least as strong as the joy of winning. McEnroe fully details his most significant
triumphs and losses (e.g., the 1984 French Open final, in which he held a two-sets-to-one lead over nemesis Ivan Lendl,
and the classic Wimbledon five-set defeat by Bjorn Borg). His three Wimbledon and four U.S. Open singles titles were
special, but perhaps his proudest achievement was the five Davis Cups he helped to secure at a time when other top
players were more interested in the money to be made in tournaments and exhibitions. McEnroe also writes openly about
his turbulent former marriage to actress Tatum O'Neal, and current status as father to six and husband to pop star Patty
Smyth. Readers will be happy to learn that his anger-management counseling seems to help him defuse "certain situations"
effectively. Recommended for sports and general collections.
