About
Conor Niland is the author of 'The Racket', the William Hill Sports Book of the Year, Irish Times SBOTY and Second Captains SBOTY 2024.
Co-written with the 42.ie's Gavin Cooney, 'The Racket' is the story of pro tennis's 99%: the players who roam the globe in hope of climbing the rankings and squeaking into the Grand Slam tournaments. It brings us into a world where a few dozen super-rich players - travelling with coaches and physios - share a stage with lonely touring pros whose earnings barely cover their expenses. Painting a vivid picture of the social dynamics on tour, the economics of the game, and the shadows cast by gambling and doping, The Racket is a witty and revealing underdog's memoir and a unique look inside a fascinating hidden world.
