To enhance our discussion and understanding of NCR Book Club selection Venus Envy, Ben and Courtney are joined by Jon Wertheim to chat about his experiences writing the book and how he looks back on it, two decades later.
How has the tour changed since? How will history remember Anna Kournikova? And what is the current state of tennis in the publishing world?
