Overview

During the era of Jimmy Connors, John McEnroe, and Andre Agassi, Fritz Glaus traveled the world, ministering to the players and making himself available to talk about topics greater than ranking points and down-the-line backhands. Besides developing friendships with some of the most famous players in the world as well as journeymen fighting their way through the qualification draws, Fritz led weekly Bible studies and helped players maintain balance and perspective on and off the court. Friend, confidant, networker, and encourager-Fritz Glaus was someone they could turn to when everyone they knew was a competitor. Now, in this fascinating and highly enjoyable book, Fritz shares stories from his days on the tennis tour as well as inside looks at players like Stan Smith, Michael Chang, Gene Mayer, and Hank Pfister and female players like Ros Fairbank-Nideffer and Wendy White. If you're a tennis fan, you'll enjoy this glance back through some of tennis' golden years. Love Game is a timely reminder that there are greater things in life than winning love-and-love.
