What Customers Say About Tennis for Dummies:

You can literally become a better player just by listening to his comments. Patrick is a walking tennis encylopedia. Patrick McEnroe is our family's favorite tennis commentator. Now that he's doing the Davis Cup our whole family misses him so much on the matches on television.
Like most of the "Dummies" books, sometimes you have to flip around sequentially for information, but thats not a big deal in the end. For more advanced players, its still great for refreshing basic details and rules, learning tennis-related exercise routines, etc. If you are an absolute beginner, its a fun, interesting and non-scary introduction to the game. Lots of fun for anyone with any interest in Tennis. This is the first book I bought about Tennis when I got into the sport over a year ago. Its not fancy with a lot of glossy photos of pro players, BUT it is one of the most useful and fun to read Tennis books I have found. McEnroe's sense of humor is great and it makes the otherwise dull task of describing in writing a dynamic game much more intereseting.
I found a lot about tennis that I was looking for. Thanks. Tennis for Dummies is a great book for all tennis players. If you do not have this book yet, just buy it and will be happpy that you did.
a great refrence on everything tennis. this is the only book i needed to buy because it has everything in it. for someone who has never tried to play tennis before, likes to watch it on tv, is interested to play on their school team, or maybe sommeone getting back into the game, this book is really helpful in learning all about playing the game of tennis. i especaially like the cheat sheet.
Lots of good tips. A good book. But if you really want to learn to play tennis get a teacher
