Winning Ugly is a totally new approach to getting more out of your tennis game. I wish it had been around when I was learning how to play. Jim Courier

Brad Gilbert teaches players how to win more often without necessarily even changing their strokes. The key to success, he believes, is to become a better thinking player - to recognize, analyze and capitalize. That means outthinking opponents before, during and after a match, which forces the opponent to play your game. Gilbert's unconventional advice includes:

• How to identify the seven "Hidden Ad Points," and what to do when they come up
• How to be a lefty, a retriever, a serve-volley player and other troublesome opponents
• How to keep a lead, or stop a match, from slipping away.
• How to handle psyching and gamesmanship.
• 6 reasons why you should never serve first.
