Contenuto
Jimmy Connors, John McEnroe, Andre Agassi, Jim Courier, Pete Sampras, Andy Roddick and many others: the great American champions have played an irreplaceable role in the history of tennis. The United States has been the central hub of the global circuit for much of the Open Era, which began in 1968, and since the introduction of the ATP ranking in 1973 six American players have held the top position. This book portays the historical dominance of American tennis, providing all the statistics related to American players in over half a century of competitions. Seasonal rankings, results in Grand Slam tournaments and other major events, incredible records, head-to-head outcomes and many other rankings allow readers to dive into the great rivalries of USA tennis. While today's champions from the Old Continent have taken command, no movement has reached the peaks that characterized American dominance from the seventies to the nineties, marked by epic matches like Connors vs. McEnroe and Agassi vs. Sampras. The remarkable data presented in this unique book unquestionably demonstrate it.
