This book chronicles the seven years that the author spent as a hitting coach for the Williams sisters and what it was like working with such phenomenons. Throughout the pivotal early years, the media presented different sides of Venus and Serena's fascinating rise to fame, but there is one side that no-one else had access to -- THE INSIDE! With candour and wit Rineberg writes about his experiences with Richard Williams, the controversial and controlling father, coach and manager, and about the early years when Venus was just hype and Serena wasn't even a consideration. This book will take you to the practice courts, showing daily workouts and secret practice methods, and discusses the controversies that followed in the wake of Venus and Serena's rise to fame. Ride along and experience what Rhineburg describes as a roller coaster ride from the tennis courts of South Florida to the lush green lawns of Centre Court at Wimbledon and Stadium Court of the U.S. Open.
