About this listen
A major biography of the greatest men's tennis player of the modern era.
Widely regarded as one of the greatest ever sportspeople, Roger Federer is a global phenomenon. From his humble beginnings as a temperamental teenager to becoming symbol of enduring greatness, The Master is the definitive biography of a global icon who is both beloved and yet intensely private. But his path from temperamental bleach-blond teenager with dubious style sense to one of the greatest, most self-possessed and elegant of competitors has been a long-running act of will, not destiny. He not only had a great gift. He had grit.
Based on 20 years of one-on-one interviews with Federer and with wide access to Federer's inner circle, including his coaches and key rivals, legendary sports reporter Christopher Clarey's account will be a must-listen retrospective for the loyal sports fan and anyone interested in the inner workings of unfaltering excellence. The Master tells the story of Federer's life and career on both an intimate and grand scale.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A Federer story from a journalist’s perspective
Great recollection of Federer’s journey from young to present. Would’ve have been great to get more insight from Federer himself to garner his own thoughts and thinking, but not to be. All in all, well written and constructed.

A very long narrative that was hard to listen to. Roger was a fantastic tennis player.This book does not do him justice.
