   Book Review
hen Jennifer Capriati began her professional tennis career in 1989 at the age of 14, she was an immediate phenom. She became the youngest woman to advance to the semifinals at Wimbeldon and the U.S. Open, and won the gold medal at the 1992 Olympic Games. But shortly thereafter, the pressure of life in the spotlight began to take its toll.The story of her subsequent fall from grace and phoenix-like return to win the Australian and French Opens in 2001 serves as a rousing reminder that sometimes failure can inspire success.
