Summary

'It was the day I put the tennis balls into the tumble dryer that I realised I thought about tennis a little bit differently.'

What happens when you find you have exceptional children? Do you panic? Put your head in the sand? Or risk everything and jump in headfirst?

As mother to tennis champions Jamie and Andy Murray, Scottish national coach, coach of the Fed Cup and general all-round can-do woman of wonder, Judy Murray is the ultimate role model for believing in yourself and reaching out to ambition. As a parent, coach and leader, she is an inspiration who has revolutionised British tennis. From the soggy community courts of Dunblane to the white heat of Centre Court at Wimbledon, Judy Murray's extraordinary memoir charts the challenges she has faced, from desperate finances and growing pains to entrenched sexism.

We all need a story of 'yes we can' to make us believe great things are possible. This is that story.

So interesting

This was the first autobiography that I have read/listened to. I am an Andy Murray fan so I was interested in hearing Judy's story.

I loved it! I couldn't stop listening to it. She is an amazing women and I had no idea what as a family they gone through and achieved to get there.

I throughly recommend it.

Great coach, ambassador and mum.

I read this book as I've always played tennis. I expected to enjoy the insights into pro-tennis, and to hear how 2 brothers managed to get to be top players. I hadn't anticipated that I would enjoy even more than that, the story of a truly inspirational woman who has fought to get her boys to where they are and also given so much back. Well written, well read, an ace.

Tennis and inspiration

Brilliant, I really enjoyed this book, well written and a massive insight into the world of tennis, I never knew the story behind the Murray's and their success, I thought Judy had been a pro herself prior to listening to this, great lady, total respect for what she's achieved especially in the unfortunate machismo world of tennis, she is an inspiration and gives lots of tips of how to inspire the younger generation

What a story!

Judy is completely different to what I was expecting. It’s not only a fantastic story but also a real insight into attitude to life we all should strive for. I’m in my mid forties and have decided to take up tennis last year. Considering I was never any good in any of the ball sports, tennis is something that amazes me of how it draws me in and how I want to play every day and want to get really good at. I’ll never play in Wimbledon, fair enough but self belief, persistency, ultimate don’t care about age and you can do it attitude that Judy so beautifully describes will hopefully get me at a stage where I can compete with people of my age. After reading this book, I wish I could meet Judy one day and chat over a coffee. Highly recommended read!

A MUST for tennis people, very inspiring for anyon

To say that Judy Murray is likeable would be to state the obvious. She is a hero, an absolute hero for her family, for tennis, for women and for humanity. I could not put the book down. Lucky boys to have her as their mom!
