Far from your standard sports autobiography, this is a moving, sometimes painfully honest account of Draper's struggles and triumphs - and there have been some doozies in his still young life. Probably best known for his transition from the pro tennis tour to professional golf, the personal story is of a man who has experienced tragic loss (his wife, in 1998, to cystic fibrosis, when he was 25), lost his way, hit the bottle, found a way back, to triumph - winning the mixed doubles at the 2005 Australian Open with Samantha Stosur.

Produktbeschreibung
Far from your standard sports autobiography, this is a moving, sometimes painfully honest account of Draper's struggles and triumphs - and there have been some doozies in his still young life. Probably best known for his transition from the pro tennis tour to professional golf, the personal story is of a man who has experienced tragic loss (his wife, in 1998, to cystic fibrosis, when he was 25), lost his way, hit the bottle, found a way back, to triumph - winning the mixed doubles at the 2005 Australian Open with Samantha Stosur. Next stop: the US golf tour - and he just might have the game to get there. Sounds like an extraordinary personality, yes? One who has also found a way to cope with anxiety neurosis, also known as obsessive compulsive disorder. Passion, pain - the whole package. A remarkable and inspiring story.

Autorenporträt
Scott Draper comes from a sporty family, including his cousin, the now retired elite swimmer Petria Thomas. Scott became a tennis professional in 1993, reaching a career high rank of 42 in the ATP singles. Prior to this, he was ranked No. 5 in the junior double rankings after winning the Wimbledon junior doubles title.

In 2005 he qualified to play on Australia's professional golf tour and had to juggle sports over the last four days of the Australian Open, playing in his first pro golf event on Friday morning and winning his mixed doubles semifinal with Samantha Stosur that Friday afternoon. They went on to win the Australian Open mixed doubles title. Scott is now concentrating on making the cut as a professional golfer.
