The golden years of Borg, Connors, McEnroe / Evert, Navratilova, King, haunt the background as two California pros investigate off-the-beaten-path money tournaments, hobo trains, and life in the not-so-fast lane; while simultaneously negotiating the joys and sorrows of teaching the game. (Witty insights and unique instruction tips are a bonus.)
