Reviews
"Though the narrative focuses on Nadal, Roland-Garros's clay courts become a character in their own right as Clarey provides rich background on the event's history... It's a meticulous recap of one of tennis's great achievements."-- Publishers Weekly, "[Christopher Clarey] is well positioned to write Nadal's biography, having already penned The Master: The Brilliant Career of Roger Federer. Clarey can thus be called the Walter Isaacson of sports biographers - and we now await his verdict on Djokovic." -- The Federal, "This insightful, wide-ranging book could serve as a model for other sports biographers.... An inspired portrait of an unusually dominant athlete."-- Kirkus Reviews

Synopsis
The crushed red brick at the French open and in other Nadal fiefs like Monte Carlo, Barcelona, and Rome is gritty, sticky, and tricky. This vast canvas of clay, swept smooth at the end of every set, exposes the dilettante and the late adopter but rewards the veteran, particularly the native slider who grew up on the stuff. Clay is to Nadal what water is to Michael Phelps or midair is to Simone Biles: a natural habitat suited to serial success. Clay was paradoxically not Nadal's favorite surface in his youth, but it was and will forever remain his best surface. The French championships were 114 years old when Nadal arrived on the scene. But Paris, even Paris, had never seen anything quite like him, and now its cosmopolitan denizens can see him whenever they like. All they need do is peek through the front gate at Roland-Garros., From the New York Times bestselling author of The Master comes an intimate biography of tennis's enduring champion Rafael Nadal. In The Warrior , Christopher Clarey illuminates the skill and determination it took to accomplish Rafael Nadal's most mind-blowing achievement: 14 French Open titles. Nadal has won big on tennis's many surfaces en route to becoming one of the greatest players of all time: securing two Wimbledon titles on grass and four U.S. Open titles on cushioned acrylic hardcourts. But clay, the slowest and grittiest of the game's playgrounds, is where it all comes together best for his tactical skills, whipping topspin forehand and gladiatorial mindset. Clay is to Rafael Nadal what water is to Michael Phelps, which helps explain one of the most impressive individual sports achievements of the 21st century. Clarey draws on interviews over many years with Nadal and his team and with rivals like Roger Federer. Not just a book about tennis, The Warrior draws much wider lessons from Nadal's approach to competition.
