David Foster Wallace Tennis writing
Bookish types (sportreview.net.nz readers are notoriously literary) will have been sad to hear that David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest writer and a fine journalist, took his life last weekend.
As well as being an all-round shit-hot writer, Wallace was a nationally (US) ranked junior Tennis player, and often wrote features on the sport. Here’s what I could find online:
Roger Federer as religious experience - New York Times
Democracy and Commerce at the US Open - Tennis magazine
Tennis, Trigonometry, Tornadoes: A Midwestern boyhood - Harper’s Magazine (pdf, about 3 MB)
