Rod Laver's Autobiography is the inspiring story of how a diminutive, left-handed, red-headed country boy from Rockhampton became one of Australia's greatest ever sporting champions. Filled with anecdotes about the great players and great matches from his time, set against the backdrop of a tennis world changing from rigid amateurism to the professional game we recognize today, Rod's book is a warm, insightful and fascinating account of a great sportsman and a great Australian. "Rocket" Rod Laver holds the record for most singles titles won in the history of tennis - with more than 200 career titles. He was ranked World No. 1 for seven years in a row and is the last male player to have won every major tournament twice. Although he normally shies away from such praise, he is often recognized as arguably the greatest tennis player of all time.
