SynopsisJohn McEnroe was just an eighteen-year-old amateur from Queens when he stunned the tennis world by making it to the Wimbledon semifinals in 1977. He turned pro the following year after winning the NCAA singles title; three years later, he was ranked number one in the world. McEnroe dominated tennis in the eighties, winning three Wimbledon and four U.S. Open titles. His 1980 Wimbledon final match with Bjorn Borg is considered by many tennis experts to be the best match ever. You Cannot Be Seriousis McEnroe at his most personal, a no-holds-barred examination of contemporary tennis, his championship seasons, his cantankerous on-court behavior, his marriage to Tatum O'Neal, his current roles as a devoted father, husband to pop star Patty Smyth, senior tennis tour player, and controversial television commentator, and much more. Funny, biting, close to the bone, this is exactly the book you'd expect-and want-from one of the most colorful figures of our time.

  • Interesting read

    I thoroughly enjoyed this McEnroe autobiography. Of course, I was a big McEnroe fan back in the day when he was the bad boy of tennis. Very interesting read. Lots of inside (and surprising) info on what the pro tennis circuit was like. But it's more than just about tennis. It also covers his musical "career" and his marriage to Patty Smyth.
