Calling the Shots: My Autobiography

Product Information

I found the journey to becoming a tennis star really interesting and it is forgotten with her broadcast career what an amazing player she was.

I liked sue barker it was interesting to hear how hard she worked to become world number 3 and win the French open a lot of effort and dedication well 👏 done.Overall a good read about a sporting journey and what happens next in terms of career after that finishes. I have always been a huge fan of A Question of Sport, and I was devastated when Sue was forced to leave. Now on the WAT tour (Women's Tennis Association) and with some great wins behind her, Sue is back in France playing at Roland Garros, one of the four Grand Slam tournaments most revered in the world. I have grown up watching Sue Baker on Question of Sport and Wimbledon and I always admired her wit, intelligence and hard work and this book gives an insight into the women behind the camera and has given me a new admiration for her. A quite, honest, sincere women, great career, but also a larger and fuller television career, and one thing is for sure.

I found her life story very interesting, I had never considered how different the WTA tour would be in the 70s but it was very interesting.The sign of a good autobiography is when you actually get an insight into the real person, not just a repeat of the well known facts.
