My Own Court - The Life Story of Tennis Legend John Riggio(Kobo/電子書)

In the world of tennis, where dreams collide with reality, few players can claim a legacy as unique and multifaceted as that of John Anthony Riggio. This book is more than just a chronicle of my journey from a junior tennis hopeful to a distinguished professional player; it is a celebration of resilience, ingenuity, and the relentless pursuit of excellence in a sport defined by serious competition and playing sportsmanlike.

As one of the select few players to achieve victory in prestigious tournaments like the Eastern Tournament, the Manhattan Open, and the American Airlines Open, I lived both the highs of triumphant wins and the lows of fierce rivalries. My ground-breaking endeavors extend beyond the court-I was instrumental in the creation of a new pro tennis league designed specifically to ensure that players like myself could sustain a career while grappling with the ever-evolving landscape of professional sports.

This book delves into my singular experience of holding my own tennis court, both as a junior and an adult player-a rare feat that speaks volumes about my commitment and talent. Each chapter unpacks the vibrant tapestry of my career, including the incidents of breaking racquets in matches, a testament to my fierce tenacity and unyielding spirit during competition.

Behind every opportunity, there lay the crucial support of influential sponsors and a dedicated administrative coach whose belief in my potential propelled me forward. My journey was not just about climbing the ranks; it was about forging connections with top names in sports and society, gaining insights into their worlds while maintaining my personal integrity in the face of scandals and ethical issues that plagued the sport.

Yet, my story is also one of overcoming adversity. Faults in the ATP administrative office led to a chaotic and confusing array of names associated with my career. I had to navigate these complexities, changing my player name six times and enduring various misprints on tournament wins. This book addresses those challenges directly, aiming for clarity and unity under my rightful name-Mr. John Anthony Riggio.

My pathway to becoming a professional player was paved with self-initiative and determination. From creating my own tennis club in middle school and high school to picking up the phone and negotiating sponsorships, I navigated uncharted waters to keep my passion alive. I became a self-taught ambassador for the sport, educating my sponsors on how tournaments operated and implementing strategies that would help pave my way to the ATP.

In choosing to share my journey, I aim to inspire aspiring athletes, provide insights into the real workings of professional sports, and highlight the importance of perseverance and integrity. This book is not just my story but a testament to what can be achieved when passion meets purpose. Join me as we explore the ups and downs of a life dedicated to tennis-a journey where every swing of the racket, every changed name, and every hard-fought match converges into a narrative rich with lessons and triumphs. Welcome to the world of John Anthony Riggio, where the court is where it all happened.
