Produktbeschreibung
Guillermo Vilas is the most outstanding tennis player in the history of the sport in Argentina. He won four Grand Slam tournaments, unofficially reached the Number One ranking and created a style of play with top spin. He was one of the best on the ATP Circuit on clay courts and is inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame in Newport. His life transcends beyond the game. He wrote books of poetry, released records and rubbed shoulders with top writers, rock musicians, artists and even European royalty. For four years Federico Chaine interviewed his close relatives and followed Guillermo in the Seniors tournaments, sharing long hours of talks at his home in Buenos Aires, at his club and in his hometown, Mar del Plata. In these texts we will discover the most private side of the Great Willy with photos and testimonies of other great tennis players, coaches and journalists who experienced the "Phenomenon Vilas" up close.
