Ashe vs Connors

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'There has surely never been a more extraordinary and bewitching encounter than the 1975 showdown between Arthur Ashe and Jimmy Connors. Forty years on, their final remains a lesson in how sporting encounters can be won in the head just as much as on the field of play.' 'A smashing book retelling the tale of the 1975 Wimbledon final when Arthur Ashe beat Connors in a remarkable contest'. 'Ashe vs Connors is a journey from a bygone era of 'rock star' behaviour and simpler times and is brought to life with precision by Bodo. Anything as informative and enthralling as this can only add to the sporting knowledge of an aficionado and Ashe vs Connors certainly does just that.'
