Ivan Lendl – The Man Who Made Murray

The book ‘Ivan Lendl – The Man Who Made Murray’ was published today. Written by renowned British tennis journalist and expert Mark Hodgkinson, it sheds light on Ivan Lendl’s life behind the Iron Curtain in Czechoslovakia, his surveillance by the StB secret service, and his subsequent escape to the United States. The author uses exclusive interviews with colleagues such as Mats Wilander and Michael Chang to portray Lendl’s complex personality and his ‘magic formula’ for success. He also describes in detail how Lendl transformed the Scotsman Andy Murray from a multiple Grand Slam finalist into a champion (US Open, Olympic gold, and Wimbledon). The publication comprises 344 pages with an additional 16 pages of very beautiful color photographs.
