Margaret Court captured an all-time record of 64 major titles during her esteemed tennis career, including 24 in singles, 19 in doubles and 21 in mixed doubles. As one of the greatest players of her era, there were several aspects of her life and training that she credits to pushing her game to the next level, which she details with Chris Bowers.
Court began tennis as a matter of proximity, growing up near grass courts and fostered by coaches who recognized her talent at a young age. Aside from her on-court skills, she credits her passion for training - running and lifting weights - as the keys to her consistent success and relatively injury-free career. Her arrival at the top of the game was sudden, winning the Australian Championships at age 18, and began a sustained career she covers in depth. Court speaks to the tumult of the early years of professional tennis, her mentors in the men's game and what she enjoys about today's tennis.
Margaret Court owns the fourth-best singles winning percentage of all time (91.69). She is one of only three players in history to have won the Boxed Set, consisting of every major title (the singles, doubles and mixed doubles) and is the only player to ever complete a double Boxed Set. Court was year-end No. 1 a total of seven times during her career.
