A Most Extraordinary Life: A Champion's Journey from Wimbledon to Hollywood, from Aspen to Amazon

Not every child is brought up to be a champion, but Sally's father planted that seed in her at the age of ten. From that moment on she was nourished and polished to be champion of the world in tennis. In this book you will learn how she came out from under her father's dictates and found a spiritual dimension that had long been hidden from her. She learned the difference between competition and cooperation, struggle and flow, disappointment and acceptance, self-centeredness and kindness, passivity and willfulness, entitlement and gratefulness, and love and fear. The themes in her life resemble those in others' lives, yet she found answers to her challenges and struggles that gave meaning to her life. These she shares here in this touching memoir. Above all, she makes it clear that every child can be raised to be a champion... that is, to be the best that she or he can be, no matter the circumstances. And, everyone can aspire to be that champion at any age!
