Description

With personalities like Venus and Serena Williams, Andre Agassi and many others keeping tennis in the spotlight and increasing its popularity, the time is right to release a new edition of a how-to book written by one of the coaching greats, Oscar Wegner. Oscar Wegner has either personally trained many of the world's pros or been acknowledged by them for the efficacy of his method after they trained on it. These pros include Bjorn Borg, Gustavo Kuerton, Vincent Spadea, Venus and Serena Williams, and many others. Oscar is known as the "father of modern tennis" - meaning that when he discovered that the way the pros played was not at all what the coaches around the world were teaching their students, he developed a completely new way of teaching tennis - the way pros actually play. With this system he popularized tennis in Spain and Brazil and is now setting the stage in the United States. Oscar was featured weekly on the tennis TV show on Prime (now Fox Sports) from 1991-1995. He then moved to ESPN International for five years as tennis commentator for Latin America and he created a tennis tips website that had more than two billion impressions from 170 countries. He single-handedly changed coaching methods and contributed to a new worldwide tennis boom. Currently 10,000 people visit his website (www tennisteacher.com) each month, a number that is growing rapidly as the site is upgraded. Originally published by Thomas Nelson Publishers in 1992, You Can Play Tennis In Two Hours sold 7,500 copies in six months before Nelson terminated its sports program. Oscar sold an additional 4,000 copies on his own.
